Type of home required: This handsome little guy is 5 year old Jim!! Jim is a Shih Tzu cross and is looking for his forever home. Jim loves to explore his surroundings and have a good sniff, especially new things! He absolutely loves his toys, especially small squeaky toys. Jim likes other dogs and would be happy to share his home with a canine companion pending successful meets at the centre. Jim would excel in a home with a enclosed garden to potter around. More information: Jim could live with older teenagers or in an adult only home. He will need a family to support him with his ongoing training and a family that can give him patience and understanding. He enjoys meeting new people but will need slow introductions, but once Jim gets to know you, he will be a great family member! Jim can find formal handling worrying, so he will need a family that can continue building this up so he can have a more positive experience. Jim will need someone who is home most of the time at the start and can slowly build up leaving hours. If you think Jim is the boy for you, don't forget to add him to your favourites when submitting an application.
Bessie is a friendly 10 year old Collie Cross described by her foster mum as ‘the gentlest and kindest dog’. She loves company and will happily sit by her favourite human all day long. Bessie is an independent girl who is happy to do her own thing, is clean and house-trained, barks to be let out and is clever and walks well on the lead. A secure, enclosed garden is essential to prevent her exploring. Bessie is best suited to an adult home – perhaps a retired person/couple or somebody who works from home. Although happy to meet other dogs, Bessie would be happiest to be the only dog in the home.

Type of home required: Finn is an 8 month old, big and strong boy with a wonderfully friendly nature. He’s a lovely young dog who enjoys being around people, playing with his toys and meeting other dogs. Finn is a bright boy who already knows sit and paw, is housetrained, and travels well in the car. He’s also very playful and would love a home where he can continue learning, exploring and enjoying all the fun that comes with being a young dog. Finn is good with other dogs and could potentially live with another suitable dog, pending successful meets here at the centre. More information: Finn is very strong on the lead, so his new family will need to be prepared to continue working on his lead manners with patience and positive training. He also finds being left alone difficult, so time home alone will need to be built up gradually. Because of Finn’s size and strength, we’re looking for a home with older, dog-savvy children who are comfortable around large, boisterous young dogs or an adult only home. Finn has lots of potential and is looking for a family who he can go on lots of adventures with. In return, he’ll bring plenty of fun, affection, playfulness and personality to his new home. If Finn sounds like the boy for you, submit an application and add him as a 'Favourite'!
Popeye is a exceptionally sweet senior boy, that is looking for a retirement home. He is a big boy with a heart of gold, and he may even suit as a second dog if we can make a match. Popeye is a very affectionate, emotional boy, and he seems at his happiest when outside, so he will need time to adjust to any new home. He is very afraid of loud noises, some traffic, etc, so we do feel that a rural home may suit him best. Popeye will need company during the day, and will bond quickly with any new owner.
Juni is a sweet older girl that simply needs a warm place to call home. She has been through tough times, and we are slowly building up her strength again, but she is a gentle, kind girl that enjoys short walks. Juni seems very afraid of other dogs, so we feel a home on her own would be best, at least while she gains her strength back. We are looking for a long-term foster home, so that we can provide support if & when needed.
two sweet ladies who love to lunch! Meet Pickles & Gerkin – they are 1-2 year old sisters who came into the NSPCA after being found living in completely unsuitabke conditions. Pickles had a ton of missing fur on her back and open wounds, and was extremely withdrawn. Her breathing was also quite laboured. We weren’t sure if she would make it. After a few days here and secretly eating at night, Pickles slowly started to come out of her shell and we were finally able to give her the medication she so badly needed. She got a medicated bath, got treated for parasites and went on anti-biotics to help her lungs recover from her infection. She really turned a corner during this time and became a different pig – all of a sudden she as ‘wheeking’ when she heard the treats coming, munching down on hay and coming to the front of the enclosure when she heard her salad coming, and her pal Gerkin was with her the whole way! These girls have really been through it and deserve the best piggy home after all they’ve been through – could you be the one for them? Thank you for choosing to adopt guinea pigs from the NSPCA. Please make sure to do your research on how to care for a small animal before considering adopting. We recommend guinea pigs be kept indoors with an enclosure that’s a minimum of 140 x 60cm for with an adjoining run to exercise and explore. Guinea pigs require proper housing, bedding, food, enrichment, exercise and vet visits. Small animals are not pets for young children to look after, all the family must be on board to look after and care for any new pet coming into the home. We have seen too many being abandoned so please make sure that you are in a position to look after them and provide them with everything they need.
Rocky was bought into us as a stray. He is an affectionate boy and LOVES his food. Rocky has some hair loss on his back legs and tail. When he was brought to the vets, he was diagnosed with Intervertebral disc disease. He is on long term pain relief for this, which is to be given every other day. Rocky is content to snooze in his bed and loves a good cuddle. He would be suited to a quiet home and to an indoor lifestyle only, due to his condition.
