As many of you know, Trouble came into our care with a broken neck. This boy has been on quite the journey, but we’re so happy to say it’s finally time for him to start looking for his forever home. Trouble is quite simply… trouble 😂 He’s a busy boy with places to be and things to do! But underneath all that busy-boy energy is a very sweet natured little man. He’s still young and has handled his injuries and extensive rest period like an absolute champ. Now it’s time for him to get out there, explore, learn and grow into the amazing boy we know he can be. Although Trouble is ready for his next chapter, he does have some ongoing limitations and will need an adopter who understands that his safety and wellbeing must come first. We feel he would be best suited to a home where he is the only animal, helping to minimise the risk of accidental knocks, rough play or injuries. His new family will need to be mindful of his needs and follow the guidance provided by our veterinary team. After everything he’s been through, we can’t wait to see him find a family of his own. If you are genuinely interested in adopting Trouble, please reach out to our team. We’d love to have a chat and provide more in-depth information about his needs and what life with Trouble will look like.
If Trouble isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
