Hi everyone, my name is Harlow

If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who loves cuddles just as much as adventures, Harlow might be your perfect match.

Harlow is a sweet American Bulldog X. She loves spending time with her people whether that’s curling up on the couch for a nap, heading out for a leisurely walk, or bouncing around the backyard showing off her playful side. She’s a wonderful balance of relaxed and fun-loving.

Harlow loves food and positive attention, making her a delight to train and bond with. She will need some encouragement to build confidence around unfamiliar things like the vacuum, dishwasher, or car rides.

She would suit a home with an active family that can continue to work on building her confidence around unfamiliar things and other dogs.

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
