Adoption information
I've been adopted!
About Rufus. Ref: 27775
Hi! My carer has nicknamed me Rufus and she says I am a really nice fella. When she walks me from my kennel I just have to stop and wag my tail with hellos to all the dogs I pass by! I'm quite calm once I get my burst of energy out. I don't jump up on people, and I know how to sit really well. Even thought I look serious in my photos, I am a bit of a goof ball! My best trick is being able to catch treats in the air when my carer tosses them to me. I walk beautifully on lead and love going for walks. I enjoy meeting other friendly dogs; you can see a photo of me below sitting perfectly for a treat with one of my shelter buddies! I've been at the shelter a while now, and my carer doesn't understand why a nice dog like me keeps getting overlooked. I'd love a loving family to come visit me, and take me home for walks and snuggles.
Adoption details
Please note: many of our animals came to us as strays, as such we may have minimal to no information about their past. All our animals temperaments are based on what we witness within the shelter environment. They may behave differently in an environment outside of the shelter.

The price for puppies (six months and under) includes their first vaccination, desexing and micro-chipping. The price for dogs over six months of age includes first vaccination, heartworm testing, desexing, micro-chipping and registration.

When you have selected a pet and made your payment, your animal will be de-sexed before it can go to it's new home. If the animal is not already de-sexed, an appointment will be made with Council's contracted vet for the animal to be de-sexed, which can take 1-2 business days, depending on availability. Your new pet is then taken to the vet by us and the animal is de-sexed. The vet will contact you (as the new owner) to let you know when your pet can be collected.
Please note that this adoption profile may not be the most up-to-date information available, due to the constant movement of animals into and out of the facility.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
