Hi everyone, my name is Bindi
Bindi is a soft, gentle young lady with plenty of growing and learning ahead of her. She’s looking for a home that can guide her in the right direction — with a little patience and consistency, she’ll grow into a loyal, loving companion.
Bindi would love a moderately active home that can offer her daily walks, enrichment, and ongoing training to help her build confidence and good manners.
She could happily live with another well-socialised calm adult dog of a similar size, as she shows friendly, appeasing behaviours around other dogs. With the right match and support, this could help boost her confidence even more.
Because she can get a bit silly and jumpy when excited, Bindi is best suited to a home with teenagers and up. She’s sweet, eager to learn, and ready to find a family to grow up with.
If Bindi sounds like a good fit for you please pop in an application as we’d love to hear from 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
