Burnie Dogs

Dogs at our Burnie Home

The dogs below are waiting for adoption from our Burnie Home. If you’re interested in adopting one of these dogs, please click the link below to make an appointment to visit the Home. Please be aware that dogs are being adopted throughout the day, and while we try and update Facebook and the website as soon as a dog is adopted, we cannot guarantee that any particular dog will still be there when you visit.

We only take visitors by appointment. This helps us to limit the number of people in the adoption area, reducing stress on the dogs. Bookings can only be made on the day and for two days ahead.

Excited Ella is ready to bound into her new life, just as she bounded into ours. This stripy princess is looking for a family to lord over and is sure to provide lots of love in her reign.

Ella is a gorgeous brindle Staffy x weighing just over 18kg. We think she is around a year old, and still a very active young dog. 

As she was a stray we don’t know a lot of her background, though she has been described by staff as a sweet girl with a busy and energetic personality. Being a Staffy, food motivation is highly likely and will make ongoing training a breeze. 

🐾 Sweet and energetic 
🐾 Will need ongoing training
🐾 Lifetime of love
🐾 Stripy princess

Every dog is desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, treated for fleas and worms, and has had a standard health check. Each dog has also been behaviourally assessed.

Appointments allow us to regulate the number of people in the adoption area, minimising stress for the dogs. Kindly be aware that as dogs are adopted throughout the day, we cannot guarantee the presence of a specific dog during your visit. Additionally, it is mandatory for all family members, including other dogs, to participate in a meet and greet with the dog prior to adoption. If you plan to adopt on the day of your visit, please bring everyone along and mention it in your booking.

Rhea has a range of goofy looks and quite spectacular side-eye. See more of her in the comments.

She’s a Bulldog-Mastiff x about six months old. She weighs 29.5kg. We’re told she knows sit and has “okay” recall, but that’s it. She is not toilet trained.

“Rhea is a young boisterous, jumpy girl who is full of life,” staff say. “She would benefit from some training as she hasn't quite mastered her good-girl skills. She is a very happy girl who loves to spend time with you. She enjoys treats and playing/goofing around.” Rhea isn’t suitable for a family with younger kids under 12 years of age until she gets her leapy urges under control.

Her surrender info says she enjoys a frolic under the garden sprinkler or playing squirt with the hose. Rhea hasn’t lived with any other companion animals.

🐾 Lifetime of love …
🐾 And responsibility
🐾 Needs training …
🐾 And socialisation
