Hi everyone, my name is Happy
Happy is a young, bright and energetic Japanese Spitz looking for an active home where she can continue to learn, grow, and build her confidence. She is a high-energy young dog who will need plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, ongoing training, and socialisation to help her become a happy and well-mannered adult.
Happy would suit an active household that can provide her with plenty of time, patience, and positive guidance. She can be rehomed with another small, well-mannered dog, however, she will need continued confidence-building and support around other dogs.
With the right guidance, ongoing training, and lots of love, Happy has all the potential to become a wonderful companion. If you’re looking for an energetic young dog to join you on life’s adventures and are ready to help her build her confidence along the way, Happy could be the perfect match.

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
