Adoption information
I've been adopted!
About River 34097 Campbelltown ACF
Hi there, hello! My names River!
Now, judging by my name you’re probably thinking about the cool, calm waters of a tranquil river… The words “peace and serenity” may ebb and flow into your minds… But no…
The only peace you shall receive is the peace of mind of adding me to your family!
I may not be calm but I am cute as a button, playful, full of energy and I have a lot of love to give. Don’t get me wrong, I do enjoy a little bit of quiet time but I do love my exercise, walks, play time and runs.
Please bare in mind that I really don’t want to be friends with other dogs – I really enjoy my space. If I see another dog I may bark at them. My love runs deep for people, and people only. So if you have another dog friend at home, or would like me to go to a dog park, then I don’t think this relationship will work – it’s not you… it’s me…
But please don’t let that put you off though –because if I’m not wasting my love on other dogs, then it means I have so much more love for you! We can be the best of friends and we can have just as much fun without another dog involved.
If a single dog is what you are looking for then look no further – I am here, I am purrfect and I am ready to go to my new home.
Tap that pretty purple button and let’s give this whole adoption thing a whirl!

Adoption payment can only be made in person at the Animal Care Facility. We do not do adoptions or payments over the phone and require all potential adopters to complete a successful meet and greet with the animal prior to adopting. For dog adoptions, if a dog is to be housed with another dog after adoption a meet and greet between the two dogs must be conducted to ensure they are a suitable match.
When you have selected a pet, you will need to complete an expression of interest form which can be found on the animals profile on our website here:
https://www.campbelltown.nsw.gov.au/AnimalsandPets/AnimalsForAdoption If you are a suitable fit for the animal chosen, a staff member will contact you to organise a time for a meet and greet. Following a successful meet and greet with the animal, we can finalise the adoption paperwork and payment. Dogs and cats are booked into Council's contracted vet for the animal to be desexed typically the next business day. We will transport your new pet to our vet for desexing in the morning. The new owner is to collect the animal from the vets in the afternoon.
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. Please check our council website for the most up to date information:
