Meet Jersey
Jersey is a gorgeous young dog with a very sweet nature and plenty of potential. Coming from a hoarding situation in a regional area, much of everyday life appears to be completely new to him.
Jersey will need a patient family who can introduce him to new experiences gently and at his own pace. Even going for a walk appears to be a brand-new concept for this lovely boy!
Jersey has tested beautifully with other dogs and must go home with a suitable doggy friend who can offer companionship and help him find his confidence.
With a quiet home, a canine best friend and people willing to show him that the world isn’t so scary, Jersey has every opportunity to blossom into a fun, affectionate and wonderful companion.
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.
