My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Brady
Key Characteristics:
ï‚· Tiny treasure (under 3kg), approximately 10 years young 
ï‚· Very cuddly
ï‚· Playful and silly
ï‚· Follows you around the house to be part of everything
ï‚· House-trained
ï‚· Very Affectionate
ï‚· Agile, no mobility issues, can do stairs
Brady adjusted very quickly to living with us!
He loves going for walks, sleeping on your lap, receiving attention, and playing with toys.
Brady would thrive in a home where his people are home the majority of the time, or go with you wherever you go, as he is a classic Velcro dog. He is quite nervous in the car and trembles/tries to get into the drivers seat, so a good harness and seatbelt is a must.
Brady gets along well with our resident dogs (all small). When we give attention to our other dogs, he will physically insert himself in front of the other dog and paw you - he just loves attention so much.

At night he will sleep in your bed and under your covers.
When meeting new small dogs on walks, he is curious and kind. With medium and large sized dogs, he barks, lunges and growls.
Brady is quite vocal when he hears noises outside the home (i.e. voices, other dogs barking) as if to alert about “intruders.” As well, Brady will bark a lot initially when new people enter the home, and when they walk between rooms. He does settle with coaching and support.
While Brady does very well with older, dog-savvy children, he is very leary of younger kids.
Brady is the sweetest, most loving boy who brings joy and fun into our home ❤️.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our process begins with an online pre adoption questionnaire followed by a telephone interview
Once both have been completed we consider suitability and if we feel the adoption candidate is a potential match we arrange a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in
From there we schedule a home visit and check personal and veterinary references.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs are in foster homes so meet and greets are by appointment only

Foster Homes
Sadly, each new day brings a flood of emails and telephone pleas to help yet another abandoned dear dog. We try and help these displaced dogs through our rescue efforts and networking. We are always in search of new foster homes where a dog can be cared for and loved until a permanent home is found. Speaking of Dogs Rescue covers food, medical attention and all the supplies required for the dogs in foster care. Foster parents need be responsible and patient people who will provide a safe environment for our dogs. A foster contract must be signed. This is a serious responsibility; however the experience is very rewarding. If you can open your heart and home to a foster dog please contact us. We have a comprehensive Foster Manual available for people who are considering becoming a foster parent.

Wish List

Financial support for the many medical procedures required, microchips, food, supplies and professional grooming
