Hi everyone, my name is Lucy
Introducing Lucy, a young German Shepherd with brains, beauty, and energy to spare! This clever girl is looking for an active family ready to embrace her smarts and help her shine. Whether you’re experienced with the breed or eager to train a bright and eager dog, Lucy is ready to be your star student.
Lucy is working on building her confidence around other dogs, so for now, she’d thrive as the only pet in the home. She can be a bit jumpy and boisterous, so an adult-only household would be the best fit for her.
With plenty of mental enrichment to keep her sharp and focused, Lucy will reward you with loyalty, love, and a huge heart. After all that brain work, she’d happily settle in for a good brush and a relaxing massage—because even smarty-paws need pampering!
If you’re ready for a loyal companion who will keep you on your toes and in your heart, Lucy is the one for 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
