About Jimbob
Introducing Jimbob, a sensitive and endearing dog ready to find a patient and loving new family. Though he may need a little extra time to warm up to new environments, once he bonds with his person, his affectionate nature shines brightly. His journey from a timid, easily startled soul to a devoted, loving companion is a testament to the kind of heartwarming bond you could share together.
Jimbob is a beautifully alert guy, ever attentive to his surroundings. Because he is under-socialised, he does best with slow introductions to new people so he can observe from a distance at first. With gentle encouragement and positive reinforcement, he eventually comes out of his shell, rewarding you with wonderful, loyal companionship.
He could live with another dog, although slow steady introductions would be necessary as he is learning how to act around other dogs
If you're a compassionate and patient adopter who values the little victories that come with helping a dog blossom, Jimbob might be the perfect match for you. With a little time, you'll find a lovable friend in him, ready to shower love and affection on the family he truly connects with.

Adoption details
We run by appointment, prefferibly all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
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.

Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
