Meet Otis
Meet Otis! I’m a big goofball who would make an awesome adventure buddy. I previously lived with another dog and really enjoyed it, in my next home I would love to have a dog pal or just regular dogs to interact with!
I would make a great adventure buddy and also someone to keep you company at night for cuddle time.
I love people but can be jumpy and forget my size, so I could go home with sturdy kids 10+ as long as they are confident and comfortable with big doggies.
I have settled into full time hours alone before so could do this again as long as I have time to settle in and my exercise needs are met!
Please enquire about me 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.
