About Doug
🐾 Meet Doug – The Best Dog Ever! 🐾
Say hello to Doug, our adorable 9-year-old Pug who’s ready to steal your heart! 💖
This little guy is the ultimate people-lover – he greets everyone with a wagging tail and a big smile (and trust us, they fall in love with him instantly! 😍).
Doug is all about fun and relaxation:
✨ Loves his walks and mini-adventures 🌳
✨ Enjoys chasing a ball around the backyard 🎾
✨ Expert at snoozing on the lounge after playtime 🛋️
When Doug first came into our care, his breathing was a little laboured. But thanks to his amazing foster family, he’s lost weight, become more active, and is now thriving!
🌟 He’s healthier, happier, and ready for his forever home.

Adoption details
Please do not apply to adopt via our animals' PetRescue profile.
Follow the links below to be directed to the Wollongong City Council website, and find your preferred animal's online profile.
Once in the online profile, scroll down and click the link to complete an adoption application. Once received, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss your application and suitability for your preferred animal.
If we deem the animal to be suitable for your home and lifestyle, an in-person meet and greet may be organised. Should your meet and greet be a success, you can take your new furry friend home that day or following their desexing surgery. Our team will manage all your animal's paperwork, including ownership and vaccination documentation.
