About Honey
Meet Honey: A Survivor Ready for a Sweet Life.
Last year we rescued a litter of pups who arrived bearing confronting burns along their backs… (see pics of when she arrived) 💔
Every single one found their home — but sadly, Honey has found her way back to the village, searching for her happily ever after once more.
Through absolutely no fault of her own, this sweet girl has now faced being abandoned twice in her young life. And yet… she still loves, she still trusts, and she still hopes.
She has taken the time she needed to learn what it means to just be a dog. With patience and guidance, the chaos has settled and in its place is a happy, relaxed, and affectionate girl. She’ll let you know if something’s out there (even if it’s just a cheeky possum 🐾), but otherwise she’s content, safe, and learning that the world isn’t such a scary place.
She’s a clever little soul — the kind that will keep you on your toes and make you laugh. She loves to play ball, chase sticks, or anything she can turn into a game. Her intelligence means she thrives with calm, consistent boundaries and someone willing to stay one step ahead of her.
Honey absolutely adores kids and would love a family to call her own. Because she’s still learning her manners (and can get a bit jumpy and cheeky when excited), we think a home with older children would suit her best.
She is incredibly social with other dogs — submissive, playful, and always keen to make friends. Give her daily walks, some playtime, and a routine, and she’ll happily snooze the day away while you’re out.
What she really needs is someone committed. Someone who will give her time, guidance, and love — not just for now, but for life. She would thrive with space to explore, and we suspect there’s a working dog brain in there just waiting for a job to do.
She is loyal, loving, and happiest right by your side… or at your feet, just quietly being your shadow.
Honey isn’t asking for much — just a forever this time. A real one. The kind she never has to lose again.
She is only medium size at around 22kg

Adoption details
At Village Tails, we strive to make the adoption process as seamless as possible. We understand that bringing a new pet into your home is a big decision that will enrich your life in countless ways. That’s why we’ve developed a clear, step-by-step guide to help you find your perfect match and provide a loving home for one of our precious animals. Our dedicated team is here to support you every step of the way, from your initial interest to the joyful day you bring your new friend home.
How to Adopt: A Step-By-Step Guide:
1. Browse Our Selection: Visit our Animals page and use the menu to view the various pets we have available. Choose between cats and dogs to narrow your search.
2. Expression of Interest: Found a pet that captures your heart? Reach out to us for an Expression of Interest (EOI) form to initiate the process.
3. Patience is a Virtue: We meticulously review every EOI to ensure each animal goes to the right home. Thank you for your patience during this critical stage.
4. Meet Your Potential Pet: If your EOI is approved, we'll organise a Meet & Greet session. It’s a great opportunity for both you and the animal to see if it’s a perfect match.
5. Adoption Application & Home Review: If you're ready to move forward, you'll need to complete our adoption application and agree to a home review.
6. Review & Approval: Your application and home review will be assessed to guarantee a secure, loving environment for your potential pet.
7. Adoption Fee: Upon approval, you'll be required to pay the non-negotiable adoption fee. This fee directly supports our animal care efforts.
