Hi everyone, my name is Buddy

Buddy is an 8-year-old Fox Terrier with a gentle soul and a heart that blooms with time. A little shy at first, he prefers to observe the world from a safe spot… but give him a moment, and you’ll meet the playful pup underneath. Once his confidence shines through, Buddy is all in for a good game of tug—his absolute favorite way to show off his fun side!

When he’s not championing tug-of-war, Buddy is the king of cozy. He loves curling up in his bed for a well-deserved snooze or stretching out in a sunny patch to soak up some warmth. Like many seniors, Buddy has a few “old man” lumps and bumps, but they’re just harmless fatty spots—nothing that slows him down or dims his gentle charm.

Buddy is looking for a quieter home where he can enjoy his golden years with the peace and comfort he deserves. If you’re seeking a sweet, calm companion with a playful streak and a heart full of love, this little man might just be your perfect match.

Adopting an animal

Adopting an animal is a rewarding experience that will last a lifetime. But before you adopt a pet please take some time to consider the commitment you are about to make. Sometimes the excitement of pet ownership can overshadow factors that should be considered before adoption.

Adopting a shelter pet is a lifelong decision that will have a major impact to your normal, everyday life. Please remember that a cat or dog can live for up to 20 years and they will rely only on you for their wellbeing for their entire life.

  • Do I have time to exercise the dog every day?
  • Do I have time for puppy pre-school and time to socialise a puppy?
  • Do I have at least an hour every day to spend with my cat?
  • Do I have time for obedience training?
  • If renting, does the landlord permit pets?
  • Is the backyard big enough and is the fencing secure?
  • Does the whole family want a pet?
  • Will the pet be allowed inside?
  • Will I have to move interstate or overseas in the foreseeable future?
  • Will I have to move to another rental property where the landlord may not allow pets.

Pets are a lifelong monetary commitment, you will need to factor in:

  • Weekly animal food bills and necessities
  • Yearly council registration
  • Monthly medications like heart worm/intestinal worm and flea treatments
  • Annual vet visits for vaccinations and check ups
  • Unexpected vet bills due to accidents or medical conditions
  • Ongoing grooming
  • Boarding fees for human holidays
  • Enrichment like training, toys etc
