About Jasper & Roxy Nolan
Please note: We will be rehoming Jasper and Roxy together as they are very bonded.
These gorgeous dogs are reluctant surrenders.
Jasper loves to follow his family around. He is most content when humans are around, and his tail will not stop wagging. His happy personality makes him a joy to be around. Jasper enjoys the simple pleasures in life, and he is especially keen on food and tummy rubs. When he knows it is bed time, he will get a little puppy spirit and grab a toy. He quickly tuckers himself out and time for bed it is.
Roxy is more reserved than Jasper but still adores a bit of attention. She loves her pats and will give you a friendly little nudge to remind you to continue patting her, gazing into your eyes with a look of pure bliss. She is very smart and learnt the foster house rules very quickly. Roxy enjoys a quiet life of napping, cuddling, and the occasional play.
A small walk each day is all that is required by these two. Both require a harness for walking and if Jasper walks too far ahead or falls behind, Roxy will give a little whimper to tell him to wait/catch up. They are friendly with all dogs they meet while out walking.
All they need is a loving home where they will be an important part of their family and lots of pats – preferably allowed inside with some company during the day.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer a six-week full refund, free assistance for six weeks for any issues, and a lifetime takeback policy with a fifty percent refund of the adoption fee, and of course an invitation to our adopters’ Christmas party.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.

Please note that we do not take/make telephone calls prior to receiving an application.
Commonly asked questions and their answers are provided when you email us. Unfortunately we usually will not have time to reply to enquiries in more detail and will give priority to completed applications over enquiries. Priority will also be given to typed applications which are easier for us to read and to copy relevant parts.
We look forward to receiving your application.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
