Hi everyone, my name is Mango

This little lady may be small in size, but Mango the 2-year-old Pomeranian has a personality that’s larger than life! She’s got the energy of a firecracker, the charm of a royal fluff, and a voice that makes sure you never miss a thing.

Mango is currently recovering from patella surgery, and while she’s making great progress, she still needs a bit more time to fully heal. Because of this, she’ll be placed in a foster-to-adopt arrangement while she continues her physio plan and undergoes repeat X-rays to ensure she’s good to go. The best part? The shelter will cover her medical needs during this time!

She would thrive in a home that understands the quirks of the Pomeranian breed—especially their talkative nature. Mango takes her job as the household alert system very seriously and isn’t afraid to let you know when something unexpected is happening. Beyond that, she’s an energetic and intelligent little dog who will need plenty of mental stimulation and enrichment to keep her happy.

Although she has lived with other dogs in the past, Mango is still working on her dog-to-dog manners, particularly on walks. She could go to a home with a confident, well-socialized dog who can help guide her, but she’ll need continued support in learning polite social interactions.

If you’re an experienced Pom person or an active family ready to take on the delightful challenge of this sassy, lovable fluffball, Mango is waiting to meet you! Please complete an expression of interest form, as she’d love 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
