About Dusty
🐾 MEET DUSTY 🐾
💙 Handsome, clever, cuddly and looking for a best mate!
Hi! I’m Dusty, and I’m a handsome little boy with a big personality and an even bigger love of cuddles.
I’m a very clever, friendly and playful pup, but my favourite thing in the world is having company. I’m a social little guy and I don’t really enjoy being on my own, so my perfect home would ideally have another friendly dog for me to hang out with.
🐶 I LOVE OTHER DOGS
Having another dog around gives me confidence and helps me settle. I love playing, snoozing and just knowing I have a friend nearby.
I’m also learning about crate time. I’m more than happy to curl up in my crate for a nap if I have a doggy friend nearby. At this stage, I’m not a pup who would cope well with being regularly left completely alone for long periods.
👧 I’M FANTASTIC WITH CHILDREN
I absolutely love people and have been fantastic with children in foster care. I’m affectionate, playful and love being included in family life.
🐱 WHAT ABOUT CATS?
I’m currently living around cats and I’m slowly figuring them out!
Sometimes I bark at them because, if I’m being completely truthful, they’re a little bit scary. 😅
I don’t chase them or try to hurt them — I’m just unsure and still learning that they’re nothing to worry about. With sensible introductions, supervision and a little patience, I’m continuing to improve.
🏡 MY DREAM HOME
I’m looking for a home where I can be a genuine part of the family. I’d love:
🐾 Another friendly, playful dog for companionship
🏡 A home where I’m included in everyday family life
👧 Children to love and play with
🧠 People who will continue my training and keep my clever brain busy
🐱 A cat home could be considered with patient, sensible introductions
❤️ Plenty of cuddles, affection and company
I’m still a young dog, so my new family needs to be committed to continuing my training and helping me grow into the wonderful adult dog I’m already showing everyone I can become.
Like all GVPAR dogs, I’m being raised in a real foster home. My carers are getting to know who I really am — how I behave in the house, around people and other animals, and what I need to thrive.

Adoption details
All animals adopted from Goulburn Valley Pet Adoption & Rehoming come with a 1 month trial period. This trial period is to ensure your new family member has enough time to settle into their new environment, and you can both be sure it's the right fit. During this time, do not hesitate to get in contact with us if there are any issues, concerns or questions. If for whatever reason, you decide during the trial period that it's not the right fit, get in contact with us and we will take the animal back into our care, and your adoption fee will be refunded to you. Also, if at anytime during the course of your pets life, you are unable to care for them anymore, we will happily welcome them back.
