Hi everyone, my name is Bronson
Bronson is a 10-month-old American Staffy with a loving nature and a good head on his shoulders. He’s been putting in the work at the shelter—he knows “drop,” is picking up leash manners quickly, and has even learned to walk up a ladder. He’s the kind of dog who does best with structure and someone who can give him clear, consistent guidance.
While he has some friendly playmates here, Bronson would be best as the only pet for now so he can focus on bonding with his new person. As a young dog still learning the ropes, he’ll suit a home with adults or older teens who can continue his training and give him the time and leadership he needs to thrive.
If you’re looking for a loyal, trainable mate who’s eager to learn and keen to connect, Bronson’s ready when you are.

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
