Dog Adoption Application
All submissions will be reviewed closely and only those that are completed in full will be considered. Please provide as much detail as possible as this allows us to match the dog or puppy's individual needs and personality to their potential families. We are run by a very small team of volunteers and it is impossible to contact everyone via phone so the majority of correspondence will be conducted via email. Please keep an eye on your “junk’ folder so you don’t miss any notifications. *Please only apply if you are willing to travel to Bendigo for a meet and greet and ready to adopt within the next 7 days*
