Meet Patch — Your Playful, Clever Companion
Patch is a sweet, energetic young pup looking for his forever home after his people made the difficult decision to surrender him due to lack of time. He's a healthy, happy boy who's bursting with potential and love to give. He also has a sibling who's looking for a home too – Stella. If you've been thinking about adopting a pair, they would love to share life with you. You can learn more about Stella below.
Available for Adoption | Stella Valenti
Still a puppy, Patch is looking for a home with humans who are willing to invest time and patience into helping him grow into the best dog he can be. He is working on obedience and house training, but he's a smart little guy who has already shown how quickly he can learn — he just hasn't had as much of it as his bright mind craves!
Patch loves being around people and gets super excited to spend time with them. He's playful, full of energy, and absolutely adores running around and having fun. He's still learning about other dogs and can be a little unsure at first, but with positive introductions and guidance, he'll continue to build confidence. Patch hasn't been tested with cats.
Patch would be just as happy being adopted on his own into a loving, active home. However, on his own he would need a family prepared to put time into socialising with other dogs of course we would help initially by supplying a trainer. If sharing his home with another dog other than Stella, he would do best with a calm, older dog who can help guide him as he can be a little boisterous at times.
The perfect home for Patch would be one where he's treated as part of the family, included in daily life, given plenty of exercise and enrichment, and of course, lots of cuddles. With the right support, Patch will grow into an amazing lifelong companion.
Could Patch be the perfect match for you?

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped,
wormed, and flea treated. All necessary vetwork such as dentals,
surgery, eye treatment are also carried out. We are no longer heartworm

a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer free assistance for six weeks for any issues, a lifetime takeback policy with full refund of the adoption fee, and will always be available to offer advice.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.
