Meet Sesame, a charming and distinctive Lagotto Romagnolo, who is eagerly waiting for a special person or family to call his own. Aged just over three and a half years old, Sesame is a handsome, medium-sized dog who weighs between 30 to 35 kilograms. With his beautiful curly coat and endearing personality, he has a lot of love to give.
We are looking for someone with breed experience, this is very important.
Sesame is not just a pretty face; he's a clever, energetic companion who thrives on mental stimulation and play. His alert and intelligent nature makes him a great match for someone who enjoys an active lifestyle. Whether you're up for a leisurely walk in the park or an engaging afternoon of fetch in the backyard, Sesame is your enthusiastic partner in fun. His sociable personality means he's open to sharing life with a feline friend, and he might do well as the only dog in the household, given his selective friendships with other dogs.
Living in South Brisbane, Sesame is well-suited to a home with a standard secure fence to ensure his safety during his outdoor escapades. He comes fully desexed, microchipped, and has been wormed regularly. While his booster vaccination status needs checking, his early vaccinations have been completed. Though not yet formally assessed for child compatibility, Sesame's loving nature and adaptability promise the potential for a harmonious family dynamic under the right circumstances.
With an adoption fee of $495, Sesame is not just looking for a home — he seeks a place where he can be cherished and where his playful spirit will flourish. He’s ready to bring joy to a caring family that appreciates the grace and affectionate nature of the Lagotto Romagnolo breed. If you believe your home could be the perfect sanctuary for this wonderful companion, Sesame can't wait to meet you and begin the beautiful journey ahead.

An adoption fee applies to each animal to cover only the basic veterinary procedures, and each adoption goes out on a 21 day settling in period, if the dog is returned in this period, and you’ve spoken to our trainer for assistance, and the dog is returned in good health, mentally and physically, and all their belongings and paperwork are returned, then we provide a refund less $50 admin fee (per dog) . This is not a trial, but in case of any unknown or unforeseen circumstances.
The adoption process is as follows
✅Everyone that lives in the home will meet the dog with the carer
✅We ask everyone go home again and discuss and think about overnight and contact us the next day
