Hi, I’m Shelly

Hi, I'm Shelly! I'm a young, energetic girl who is looking for a family who will enjoy my playful spirit and help me grow into the amazing companion I know I can be. I'm happiest when I've got things to do, so I'd love a home where I can stay busy with walks, runs, games, and fun enrichment to keep my clever brain ticking.
I've likely never known what it's like to be allowed inside and tend to feel more comfortable outside in a big, secure yard. But I would still love to be allowed inside, I just might take a little while to get used to it. I'd prefer to be your one-and-only dog at home, as I'd prefer to spend time with my people. Because I am an active girl, I'd do best with older kids and adults who are steady on their feet. I would hate to accidentally knock anyone over! However, if your kids have grown up with working breeds before, the team would be happy to have a chat with you! While I'm still awaiting to be desexed, if you feel we will be the perfect match, please complete an application and the team will be in touch with you!

My adoption price includes: 

  • A FREE 4kg bag of ROYAL CANIN dry food*
  • My desexing, microchip and vaccinations

Adoption Price: $450  

If you think I might be the perfect fit for your family, please fill out an adoption application today! www.rspcaqld.org.au/apply-to-adopt

*Some conditions on special diets apply
