LOCATED IN PERTH
Slate and Sterling: Little Paws, New Beginnings
Meet Slate and Sterling, two lovely boys now located in Perth and ready to find homes of their own. Their photos may be a little underwhelming, but consider them a sneak peek until we get some better puppy portraits!
Both boys are in foster care with a loving family. They are still settling in, so we are getting to know their individual personalities and needs a little more each day.
Like all puppies, Slate and Sterling will need patience, gentle guidance and ongoing training as they learn about home life. Think toilet training, suitable chew toys and plenty of opportunities to explore the world safely.
Our foster families help us understand each puppy so we can support a suitable match. Slate and Sterling are available for adoption individually.
Interested in meeting one of these boys? Submit an adoption application and our team can arrange a meet and greet. SAFE does not have a shelter to visit, but meeting a puppy in foster care is easy to arrange.

4 THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE APPLYING:
1. Time Commitment: Owning a dog is a big responsibility and requires a significant commitment of time and energy. Be sure to consider how much time you can realistically dedicate to caring for a dog and make sure you are prepared to make that commitment.
2. Cost: Owning a dog can be expensive. Make sure to consider the cost of food, medical care, toys, and other supplies. You may also want to think about enrolling your dog in obedience classes or hiring a professional dog walker.
3. Space: Depending on the breed, some dogs require a lot of space. Make sure you have enough room in your home and yard to accommodate a dog before making the decision to adopt.
4. Lifestyle: Think about your current lifestyle and how a dog may fit into it. Consider if you have any restrictions such as travel, work hours, or allergies. Also, think about how owning a dog may affect your social life.
