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.

Cosmo is a busy boy who is looking for the people who will help him grow into his paws. Active and energetic, Cosmo appreciates regular opportunities to exercise both his body and his brain. This clever cutie is housetrained and has some basic training but would love to learn more. A good canine doorbell, Cosmo is friendly with people of all sizes once he gets to know them, preferring slower introductions before sharing his affections. Cosmo enjoys daily walks and regular time at the dog park, sniffing on his own and sometimes playing with other dogs. He is okay on lead but could benefit from some further loose-lead training to polish up his skills and form a bond with his new handler(s). When meeting other dogs out and about, Cosmo will usually pass without incident but will sometimes mirror the behaviours of other reactive dogs. He is okay flying solo at home for a few hours when his people are out, currently enjoying indoor-outdoor access. He has been known to engage in some creative landscaping when bored on his own, though, so needs something to occupy him during these times.

Cosmo will do well in an adults-only home or family with older children who can give him space and respect his need for Cosmo-time. This smart cookie will thrive in a situation where he has good routines and is given regular opportunities to stretch both his legs and his mind through rewards-based training, enrichment games and other activities. This will help him build his skills and confidence so he can take on all life has to offer. Cosmo may be okay left for short periods while his people are at work or play, provided he has appropriate shelter and entertainment, as well as quality human time when his people are home. Cosmo will probably do best as a solo dog, although he might live well with a well-matched dog of similar size and independence. He would prefer a cat-free family.

Cosmo is new into our care and we will update his profile as we get to know him better. If you are interested in making Cosmo part of your universe, though, please do submit an adoption application.

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.
