NB: We do not rehome interstate or to applicants under 25. It is our policy not to rehome dogs in the Sunraysia area. As rescue groups have transported thousands of homeless dogs from Mildura and Sunraysia pounds over the last decade, we do not intend to send any back there.

A spry little guy with love to share

Coriolanus Snow (or Corrie for short) has recently joined the Vic Dog Rescue crew and he is fast becoming a team favourite. Happy and friendly, Corrie is cruising at his foster home, loving his two and four-legged pack members in equal measure, and demonstrating his smarts as he quickly conquered the dog door and a ramp onto the family couch. After a short time with them, Corrie has shown his carers how much he loves a snuggle and the company of his people and his fur siblings. He has also shown himself to be chatty (but not barky), entertaining people with his variety of sounds. Corrie has been sleeping well through the night on a couch in the living room, and has been pretty reliable with his toileting but will need some patience while he is learning the routines in his new home.

He does not seem to have had much training to date but he is alert and keen on engaging with his people, which makes him a good candidate for learning new things (and having fun doing it). This guy is a youthful elder and enthusiastic about his daily exercise and explorations. He is non-reactive around other dogs and seems okay with cats.

Given his sociable nature, we think Corrie will do best in a home where there is a bit going on and people and/or doggy pals around more often than not. In the meantime, if you’re interested in welcoming Corrie to your pack, please submit an adoption application.

Thank you to Dianne Firth of Di Firth Photography for the fantastic photos of Corrie.

Health: Corrie has Cherry eyes which we are checking to see if surgery is needed
 

All our dogs are desexed, C5 vaccinated with intranasal, microchipped, wormed and flea treated. All necessary vet work such as dentals, surgery, eye treatment is also carried out. We are no longer heartworm testing as we have not had one positive test since we began in 2006. If a dog comes to us on heartworm treatment this is continued.
