Meet Adora
Meet Adora!
Adora is enthusiastic young lady who has likely had a rough start to life initially very fearful and shutdown of people, but she has since blossomed in her confidence and it eager to make all humans her friend 🙂
Adora enjoys the company of other dogs but can be a bit choosy with her friends. She prefers polite, well-socialised dogs over rude, silly dogs. Her owners will need to be able to choose friends carefully based on personalities.
Adora can be very silly girl so dog savvy robust kids 13+ who can appropriately manage boisterous behaviour in a force-free manner are best.
It is highly recommended Adora see one of our recommended trainers to help with impulse control and help refine some manners.
Come meet Adora at the refuge today!

How our Adoption Process Works
Step 1) Preparation
Read our Adoption Philosophy and make sure your views on dog ownership align with ours. Please read this entire page to make sure you are ready for adoption day.
Step 2) APPLY
Browse available dogs online, review our dog sociability matrix and then complete an adoption questionnaire.
Step 3) ADOPTION
7 DAYS A WEEK: Walk ins welcome for adoption interviews between 11am-3pm! Our gates remain open until 4pm, but we conclude our adoption interviews at 3pm so we have time to take the dogs out, feed them and get them ready for bedtime.
During quieter periods, we will also do our best to review online applications, but unfortunately cannot get back to every applicant, especially for more ‘popular’ dogs. If you agree with our adoption philosophies and are ready to adopt- please do not wait for us to contact you after submitting a questionnaire.
PUPPIES & DOGS IN FOSTER CARE: If you are particularly interested in a young puppy or a dog that is currently in foster care, please indicate this on your questionnaire. Young puppies will not be on site here at the Refuge as it is much more beneficial for them to remain in foster care until their adoption. For dogs and puppies that are not on site, we will review online applications and get in touch with suitable homes to arrange a meet and greet.
