Hi everyone, my name is Nemo
Nemo is a 3-month-old American Staffordshire x pup with a whole lot of charm and plenty of growing still to do. He’s sweet, curious, and taking on the world one wiggly step at a time — now he just needs a family to guide him through the next chapter.
Like all young pups, Nemo is looking for a patient, committed home that’s excited about training, routine, and helping him learn the ropes of good dog life. With consistency and positive reinforcement, he’ll blossom into a wonderful lifelong companion.
Nemo would love a home that enjoys staying active and can give him plenty of playtime, enrichment, and chances to explore. He could happily live with another well-socialised adult dog who can help show him how to navigate the world, and he’s suitable for families with dog-savvy children who understand how to interact gently with a young pup.
If you’re ready for puppy kisses, training adventures, and watching a sweet little lad grow into his best self — Nemo is waiting to meet you.

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
