About Tokai- Dingo
Hi my name is Tokai and I'm one of the smartest, sweetest dingoes you will ever meet. I know how to sit, lie down and how to shake your hand!
I'm also pawsome at walking on the leash and rarely pull, except when I'm really excited. I lovvvve walks and would make a great bushwalking or hiking buddy. I'm also confident walking in more built-up urban environments and love to go out to cafes for a coffee with the shelter volunteers. I'm very confident and outgoing for a dingo.
I'm an Alpine dingo with a thick fluffy white coat! You won't have to wash me though, like all dingoes I groom myself and rarely need a bath, though a good brush at the end of winter is fantastic.
I like some other dogs and dingoes (with slow introductions), but I can be a bit discerning in my choice of friends, I prefer the company of humans, and would be fine as a solo dingo! I don't like dog parks (they're scary!) and it's best that I am not around large groups of unfamiliar dogs as they can make me scared and reactive.
I prefer adults and older kids only (no kids under 13) and a home without birds, cats or pocket pets would be best.
I am house trained/toilet trained and well behaved in the house. I love the car, I will happily curl up and sleep in the boot or on the back seat for car rides.
FENCING-
Like all dingoes Tokai is a fantastic climber and digger, and will require one of the following: 2m colourbond fencing OR a dog enclosure OR a secure 1.8 meter fence with top angling or flat-top extensions (http://www.dog-blog-world.com/dog-fence/),
Sydney Dingo Rescue are able to provide advice on dingo proofing for your existing yard and most yards can be modified cheaply and easily.
Please note SFDR do not rehome dingoes to homes without a dog enclosure or modified dog fence like the one described above.
PERMITS- no permit is required to own a dingo or dingo hybrid in NSW at the present time.
Animal rescue is considered essential. SFDR can still come to you for meet and greets, yard checks and animal adoptions. We have volunteers in Canberra and New South Wales and can come to you even if you we are not in your local government area. Distance is not an issue when we are looking for the perfect homes for our dingoes. Please note we have COVID safety measures in place.
Adoption details
Please note at this time pending legal advice we are unable to offer fox kit adoption to private owners.
Dingo Adoption:
1. Fill out an adoption form and send it back to us with an email outlining anything else you think might be relevant, particularly what your house and yard are like. Remember our dingoes require an enclosure or modified fencing.
2. If your application is approved- Come along to meet us and our dingoes at our Gouburn shelter or their foster carers home and let us find the right furry family member for you. We can also come to you. We drive dingoes all over NSW and the ACT to meet families interested in adoption.
3. Before you can pick up your new dingo you will also need to under a house/yard check and pay your adoption fee. No animals are rehomed unless their adoption fee is paid in full and a yard check has been completed.
