Adoption information
I've been adopted!
About Jericho 34112 Campbelltown ACF
Um.. Hi…Hello..!
My name is Jericho and I’m still working on my confidence levels so please bear with me whilst I introduce myself to you…
When I came here I was pretty scared of everything. I spent a week not wanting to move from my bed. Not wanting anything to do with anyone. I just wanted to go home. But the nice carers here gave me lots of treats and pats and I learnt fairly quickly that people weren’t so bad after all...
I’m a smart boy – I have learned that people = treats. So when I see my carers approach me I get so excited that I can become vocal. I have also learnt that treat taking is a fine art and I am able to execute this with a lovely gentle nature.
Right now I am working on going for walks, and it’s fun! There’s lots to see, all of the smells and when I do something good I get called a ‘good boy’ - however I can still get spooked really easily but as long as I have you with me we could be a dynamic duo!
I’ve met another dog here, his name is Buddy, and he was nice, he seemed pretty confident and sweet, but he still gave me my much needed space – so based on that alone I think that a dog friend would be good for me, providing that they are independent and allow me to have my space and alone time.
So, with that said, if you can give me the love, training and space that I need then please submit and Expression of Interest for me. Word on the street is that being adopted is the best thing for doggos

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:
