Read this carefully to understand our definitions of dog sizes, ages, and breeds.
DOG SIZES
The size of our dogs is indicated using the following symbols. This is a guide only.
TOY
SMALL
MEDIUM
LARGE
Dog Ages
The age of the dogs has been estimated by veterinarians based on their general health and particularly from their teeth status.
IT IS AN INFORMED ESTIMATE MADE BY VETERINARIANS AND SHOULD BE USED ONLY AS A GUIDE
Dog Breeds
The vast majority of our dogs are rescued from Council Pounds, and usually come with little or no history. It would be extremely rare for us to rescue a purebred dog with a documented pedigree.
For this reason, it is necessary for us, and our vets, to guess the breed or breeds that make up each dog.
Unfortunately, we can't offer any guarantees that our guesses are correct, so you should assume that all our dogs are cross-breeds, with a probability of including some of the breeds we mention.
IMPORTANT - Dogs at our Ingleside shelter can be seen by appointment only and you need to have completed the Dog Adoption Questionnaire first
