Meet Sarah
Sarah is a gentle, affectionate girl who is just waiting for the right home to help her blossom. The kennel environment can make her a little unsure at first, but once she gets out into the yard and feels comfortable, her sweet and playful personality really shines.
Sarah may be a little shy when first meeting new people or experiencing new things, so she’s looking for a patient and loving family who will give her the time she needs to settle in and build confidence. Ongoing positive training classes will help her develop her basic life skills while strengthening the bond with her new family. She is an extremely cuddly girl – Sarah would happily live inside your skin if she could! Once she relaxes, she becomes very affectionate and loves giving plenty of kisses.
Sarah would suit a home with older children (13+) who can be calm and respectful as she settles in. With a soft landing, plenty of love, and some fun adventures together, Sarah is sure to grow into a wonderful and loyal 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.
