About Hades
Hades has grown up in our shelter. At six months old he came to us as an unclaimed stray over a year ago. He is in desperate need of a chance to live a normal life and be settled in a loving home environment.
A year of shelter life has taken its toll on Hades. It takes encouragement and time for Hades to be fully at ease with new people. Unfamiliar sounds and situations can be a little scary for this beautiful boy.
We have been focusing on improving Hades lead and socialization skills. Through our Volunteer Pound Buddy Program, we have been regularly exposing Hades to different sights, sounds and people to help prepare him for a life outside of our shelter. Daily we are noticing a marked improvement and Hades is getting so much enjoyment from his new adventures. One of his happy places is the bush where he can relax, enjoy his walk and jump in puddles !!!!
Sex: Male
Breed: American Staffy X
Age: 18 Months
Colour: Black & White
Adoption Fee: $75
Location: Charmhaven Shelter
Other pets: At this time we are recommending Hades be rehomed as an only boy. This is not because he isn’t dog social but more for him to have the necessary support and time to help him successfully adjust to his new life.
Type of household: Hades needs time to decompress and re-socialise by understanding life as a ‘real world’ dog. He has not had this for much of his prime youth and needs to be reset through socialisation, exercise, training and positive handling. Hades would flourish with an experienced dog person who is dedicated to transitioning Hades into a home life. At this stage Hades is only suited to a mature household.
Hades adoption fee has been subsidised by some wonderful members of the public. His $75 adoption fee covers: Microchipping, desexing, lifetime registration, current vaccination, flea & worming treatments.
We only want the best outcome for this precious boy. He tugs at our heart strings and deserves only the best family. He may need multiple meet & greet requiring his new family to come along for walks and day visits then sleep overs at his new home. Please lodge your interest online and we will be in touch.
