About Zara
Meet Zara - A Special Girl Looking for Her Furever Home 💛
Zara is a beautiful, loving deaf dog with so much heart to give. She may experience the world a little differently, but that just makes her all the more special. Zara is now searching for her perfect furever home with a family who understands her unique needs and is ready to help her thrive.
Zara would do best in an experienced dog home with adults and older children who can respect her space and communicate with her using clear visual cues and positive reinforcement. Because she is deaf, she relies on sight and routine, and she will flourish with patient guidance and consistency.
She would love access to a securely fenced backyard where she can safely explore and play. That said, Zara isn't just an outdoor dog - she truly enjoys spending quality time indoors with her family, relaxing and being part of everyday life.
Zara hasn't had much socialisation with other dogs, so she would prefer to be the only dog in the home for now. With time, structure, and careful introductions, her social skills can continue to develop before any potential canine siblings are considered. She is looking for a cat-free home.
Like many dogs, Zara will benefit from some ongoing training, including lead training and continued socialisation. With the right support, she is more than capable of learning and growing - deaf dogs are incredibly adaptable and often form exceptionally strong bonds with their people.
Zara is ready to give her whole heart to a family willing to give her patience, love, and understanding in return. If you're looking for a loyal companion and are ready to open your home to a truly special girl, Zara could be the one for you. 🐾💖
Adoption details
Our adoption process is designed to match you with the right pet, the first time. Our team are experts at rehoming animals who have specific needs that match your lifestyle, to ensure every adoption placement will last a lifetime.
At our Peninsula site, adoption hours are 12pm – 4pm. You are welcome to attend our reception office without an appointment to begin our adoption process during adoption hours.
The adoption areas are not free to walk through, and you will need to chat with our staff to confirm that a potential adoption is a good match.
Once the adoption has been discussed, a staff member will facilitate a walk-through of the adoption areas or have an animal brought to you in a greeting area.
For horse, livestock or poultry enquiries please email horsesandlivestock@rspcavic.org.au
