I’m Happy to announce that “Hope” now renamed “Indi”, has been adopted by a wonderful lady.
And is integrating beautifully into her new home.
She’s been in her new home for 2 and a 1/2 weeks now.
She’s opening up more and more all the time, and the connection with her new Mum is growing stronger, by the day. ❤️

I received a call from her new owner today, telling me that she absolutely loves her, is keeping her, and is Never giving her back!! ❤️

It was the Best news in the world! ❤️

This is the reason I do this! ❤️

A little progress video of Hope - the female German Shepherd, who’s up for adoption through German Shepherd Rescue NSW

Check out this happy little shiela!
She’s come along way in 2 weeks!

This is a little progress video taken of moments from the last 3 days.
Hope arrived at my place late Friday afternoon.
She had been rescued by German Shepherd Rescue NSW, along with 4 other German Shepherds.
Hope didn’t have a name, was very fearful, skinny, disheveled and unhandled.
Hope is making massive progress,
As you can see, in the start of this little video, she is very timid, and over the next few days, learns to walk with me in heel off lead, is raising her head up (making eye contact), and coming in for affection.
I’ll update the page with another video as she progresses.
(Unless she is adopted beforehand).

She is the sweetest, gentlest creature.
Would suit someone calm and gentle.

Hope is up for adoption with German Shepherd Rescue NSW
Feel free to contact them if you’re interested in adopting this beautiful majestic creature.

(She’ll get a bath and a proper brush soon, when she’s ready for it.
Everything in its right time!)

Jimmy getting started on sheep.
Letting that natural instinct do its thang!

Jimmy was a very nervous dog when his owners adopted him, but with patience and dedication they invested in their relationship with Jimmy, steadily building his confidence back.
He’s really finding his place!
It’s a special experience to see a transformation like that.
It’s like watching a small seed grow into a mighty tree!
Much respect to his owners!

Viper is an 8 year old, neutered, American Staffordshire terrier.
Viper came to us at the start of the week, and will stay with us for a bit, so he can get prepared for the next phase in his life.
As you can see, he’s a big love bug , and picking up basic obedience very quickly for an older fella.
Who says “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks” 🙂

VIPER IS UP FOR ADOPTION!

This is Charlie an Approximately 2 year old male Cattle dog x Staffy mix
He’s very switched on and intelligent, very loyal, affectionate and puppy like towards the people he’s comfortable with.
He’s been with me in Bathurst for a little under a week, and has bonded very quickly, and grown comfortable with his new environment quickly.
Which is a good indication of his adaptability.

This is big sweet goofy Odi, a 4 year old male, looks to be an American Bulldog x BullArab? Mix.
He’s a big # loveable bloke.
I’ve had him with me at Bathurst for just under a week now.
He’s making great progress on his responsiveness.
Recall is improving a lot,
He follows on a loose lead and off lead (where/when hes comfortable),
he sits, stays & goes to his bed on cue.
He’s very bright and keen to comply,
And more than anything he’s very affectionate, and will make a loyal companion.
If you’re interested , or know someone who is interested in adopting or fostering Odi,
HE’s AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION through
Rescue Hub

Good Luck big fella!
