Adoption information
About Newton
Meet Newton, a lovely seven year old pedigree German Shepherd who is eagerly seeking a new family to become an integral member of. With a history of being an adored indoor companion since he was just ten weeks old, Newton has been showered with love and has grown into a loyal and gentle soul. This well-mannered dog is house-trained, making him a wonderful addition to any household looking for a mature and sociable pet.
Newton thrives on companionship and enjoys nothing more than joining his people on car rides and outdoor adventures. He has an impressive track record of getting along well with other dogs, which makes him a great candidate for multi-dog households.
Newton is particularly well-behaved on a leash, making walks an enjoyable and pleasant activity for both dog and owner.
He has not been tested with cats or smaller pets.
Newton is currently available for adoption in NSW, ACT, Queensland and Victoria. If you're interested in making him a cherished member of your family, you'll need to drive with your loved ones to meet him. Should he, for any reason, not be the perfect fit for your family, you would be responsible for either bringing him back to Sydney or helping us rehome him from your home.
If you have recently owned a German Shepherd or large breed dog, and understand German Shepherd and think you have the commitment to give him a new home, then please select the "Enquire about Newton” and we will send you an application form or go to our website and complete the application form.

We have an Adoptions Manager who screens all prospective candidates as to their suitability to adopt a German Shepherd Dog.
We try to contact every one by phone but if that isn't successful we will email our application form to you, which needs to be completed and returned, or you can call us back and we can chat and complete for you. We will also ask you to provide photos of your yard and fencing to enable us to see where the dog will be kept and that they have areas of shade and shelter.
All our dogs are ready to go to their new home, so when you enquire about a dog you must be in a position to take them into your home. We are unable to hold a dog while you fix your fences or go on holiday, etc.
The successful candidate who adopts one of our dogs is provided with an information kit, ongoing support, training and advice on all aspects of feeding, training and general assistance to ensure both the new owner and our rescued dog settle into their home.
