Hi everyone, my name is Toto

Toto is a classic Labrador puppy — full of energy, friendliness, and playful charm.

At almost 6 months old, Toto is loving, outgoing, and learning about the world around her. She will need guidance with her training, building confidence in new environments, and learning good manners. Patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement will help her grow into a well-behaved adult dog.

Toto could live with a calm, well-mannered dog who can help guide her and set clear boundaries. She could also live with children, although slightly older kids would be best as she can be jumpy when excited.

Toto will thrive with a family who can provide her with structure, ongoing training, and lots of love.

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
