Meet Wilton,
Smart, cheeky, and full of character - that’s Wilton in a nutshell. This little guy is quick to pick up new things and already knows how to sit. He’s a clever pup who’s well on his way to learning even more commands, especially with the right training and encouragement. Wilton is engaging, playful, and loves socialising with people, happily allowing himself to be handled or carried when needed. At the same time, he’s always keen to explore and take in the world around him. With Wilton, you’ll get a curious and outgoing pup who will thrive in a home ready to keep his mind active and his tail wagging.
Dog-friendly? Yes! Wilton is open to meeting other dogs - ongoing socialisation training will be a great addition to his social skills, too.
Cat-friendly? Unknown - we can't really test in this environment, so it’s up to his new family to introduce him carefully.
Kid-friendly? Absolutely! He’s open to meeting children of all ages!
Considerations:
Wilton would love a yard, with high secure fencing, so that he can play in it safely. He dreams of a home with toys - lots of toys! As well as daily exercise/walks to keep his body physically fit & his mind mentally fit. Treat/food puzzles are a great tool and great way to keep active puppy minds engaged!
Wilton is starting to explore his surrounds & is growing in confidence each & every day. However, it would be a wise move to invest in a crate & start crate training. This type of training is not only a highly valuable skill to have but is a great skill for any dog to learn and know.
Wilton should be enrolled into puppy training classes as soon as he is adopted. These classes & training will set him up for life and will allow him to learn social skills & etiquette, as well as define his manners. These classes & training will also teach him how to appropriately interact with other dogs as well as other animals & people. These training classes will also assist his new owner, as they can both learn new skills together.
If you've got other animals at home, that's okay, just make sure that they have a gradual & supervised introduction - preferably over a few days - to ensure that they have the best chance of becoming friends for life.

With all animals it’s important to understand that going into a new environment with new people may not be as flawless as we want it to be. It’s important to know that these animals have unknown histories. Most left in the shelter by their owners. The information we receive is from observing the animal’s behaviours & reactions to certain stimuli whilst in our care. Adopted animals can take up to 3 months to properly decompress from post-shelter life & a lot of behaviours & quirks will surface during this time. All that we ask is that their new owners have an open mind & are patient.
So please keep in touch with us after adoption so that we can help you settle your new family member in and address any unexpected behaviours.
The adoption fee for dogs covers C5 vaccination, health check, heartworm testing, desexing, micro-chipping, and registration.
The adoption fee for cats covers F3 vaccination, health check, desexing, micro-chipping, and registration.
