Meet Kissy (now Missy)
Kissy is a sweet, affectionate Staffy who is ready to find a family of her own.
This lovely girl has been described by her foster carers as a happy, typical Staffy who loves being close to her people, soaking up attention and curling up for cuddles whenever she gets the chance. She is friendly, social and enjoys spending time with her family.
Kissy is still learning about the world and would benefit from continued positive experiences and training to help build her confidence and skills. She enjoys exploring her surroundings, loves a good sniff around the yard and is always happy to be out and about.
She has shown friendly social skills with other dogs and may enjoy suitable canine companions following appropriate introductions.
If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who will happily be your shadow and cuddle buddy, Kissy could be the perfect addition to your home.
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.
