About Vance
Meet Vance, a charming 3-year-old Staffy mix who is ready to find his forever home. Vance is a friendly and affectionate dog who loves people and enjoys their company. He is great with children, though due to his size, interactions should be managed to ensure everyone stays safe and happy.
Vance gets along well with chill dogs but isn’t a fan of intense or dominant canine companions. He thrives in a relaxed environment where he can interact with easygoing dogs.
Vance will need secure fencing to keep him safe and contained. This adventurous spirit of his needs some extra security to ensure he stays where he belongs.
He gets stressed being put outside and left alone but thrives inside and settles easily.
We have been working on crate training for Vance and he's taking to it quickly.
Currently a bit underweight, Vance will need a loving owner who can help him gain a few kilos and get back to a healthy weight. Despite this, his playful and loving nature shines through, making him a delightful companion.
If you're looking for a people-loving, kid-friendly dog who just needs a bit of extra care and secure fencing, Vance could be the perfect addition to your family. Come meet him and see if he’s the right fit for your home!

We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
