Hi everyone, my name is Bambi

Bambi is a sweet girl who found herself at Lort Smith through no fault of her own. She is super friendly, sometimes too friendly and will try to greet everyone with a big hug.

Whilst Bambi hasn’t had much prior training, she is super food motivated and eager to please making training a breeze! She’s already picked up all the basics very fast, and would love a home that continue working on her general obedience, boundaries and manners.

She’s on the hunt for an active family (teenagers and up) who can keep up with her energy and help her polish those manners.

Bambi would thrive in a home without small animals and could get along great with a calm, young, well-mannered doggy friend.

If you’re ready for a lovable goofball who’s eager to learn, Bambi is your girl!

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
