Hi everyone, my name is Eggbert

Eggbert is a young, goofy sweetheart with a big heart and an even bigger personality. He’s still figuring out the world, but what he lacks in polish he more than makes up for in charm. Eggbert is the kind of boy who’ll keep you smiling every single day with his silly antics and gentle soul.

He’s looking for a patient, understanding home that can help him build his confidence and continue learning good manners. While he’s still mastering his social skills around other dogs, he’ll thrive as the only pet in the home — where he can soak up all the love and attention. Due to his mouthy play style, Eggbert would be best suited to an adult-only home that can provide calm, consistent guidance as he matures.

Eggbert is currently recovering from patella surgery, so his adoption will begin as a foster-to-adopt arrangement. He’ll need around three more weeks of rest and gentle care before getting back to fun walks and adventures. Our adoption team will be there to support you every step of the way.

If you’re ready to open your home to a sweet, slightly clumsy, and very loveable companion, Eggbert can’t wait 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
