Ollie would love to be in a new home for the New Year!
Ollie is a cute little Husky boy who came to us from a regional pound with no microchip or history, but he is estimated to be around 5 years old.
Ollie is a pretty easy-going fellow who is happy to have another dog around, but he is also content to mooch around on his own or lie in his favourite spot in the house. He’s also happy just chilling out in the yard, and hasn’t shown any inclination to dig holes or escape.
Unfortunately another dog grabbed him by the ear which did a bit of damage and resulted in the tip of his ear needing to be removed, but we think it just adds to his personality and gives him a jaunty look!
Ollie is very interested in wildlife and other animals, so a secure yard with gates and fencing at least 6 foot high is a must, and he would not be suited to a home with cats or other small pets.
If you are interested in having Ollie join your family, please check out his full profile and photos on our website:

As described by a 9 year old boy-
Bro is giving next level fluffy cheeks cuteness!
Koda and Wolverine would love to find a forever home for Christmas - they really are just the coolest, sweetest, easiest boys ever! Great with kids(primary school up), they have captured the hearts of everyone they meet- from the kennel staff when they are boarding, to the students and teachers when they attend group training sessions and then just random people in the neighbourhood who say hello on their daily walks.
If you’ve been thinking about bringing a new fluff or two (and they have to go together) into your life, please consider this amazing pair - they will make an incredible addition to your home 🐾
Apply today!

Wingman desperately needs a foster home!
This big 4 year old Malamute boy has run out of time at the pound and is in desperate need of a wingman of his own to help him out.
Breed experience is a must for his new foster family, a secure yard and he needs to be the only pet at this stage, until we can get to know him better.
Wingman is a super friendly lad but also a very typical Mal, so will need a knowledgeable new home.
Please get in touch with us ASAP if you can help

Pandora came to us in April along with a group of other dogs that were all part of a joint venture with a regional pound who were assisting the owner to rehome a large number of Huskies from a rural property. Like many of the dogs that came from this group, Pandora was very shy, nervous, shut down and wary of strangers.
Our always reliable foster family Vince and Tiff were happy to welcome her into their home and help her adjust to life away from all she had ever known. She was introduced to their clan of various sized fur-siblings who helped to bring her out of her shell, learn to trust new people and surroundings and over time, began to show her sweet, loyal and even playful side.
In July we were contacted by Leanne who advised us that she had recently lost Jetty Bear, her beautiful 13 year old Husky who she had adopted from us 7 years earlier. He was a beautiful soul who brought her many years of happiness.
We all thought that in time Pandora and Leanne could be a suitable match so after allowing Pandora time to settle in and for Leanne to grieve the loss of Jetty Bear, a meeting was arranged.
Pandora settled in almost immediately to this calm environment, she loves her walks and her confidence builds every day. She’s even taking to making some happy Husky sounds on her walks and gets along with the resident cat!
We love these perfect match stories, where the stars and the universe all just seem to align. Thank you again to Vince and Tiff for giving her the grounds to thrive, and congratulations to Leanne & Pandora, your new life together will be amazing! 💕
