ADOPT A DINGOThanks for taking the time to consider adopting a displaced dingo or dingo-hybrid who needs a new start.
Every dingo in our care has a special story of how he or she came to be homeless. Though each dingo's story is different, they all have a common desire to belong to a loving home once again. As a pack animal, dingoes love company! Not built for the solo life, dingoes want to be with their families at all times - be that dingo, human or dog! If you think you can provide the kind of home a dingo will love, please get in touch with us using our application form below. Adoption DonationsYour tax-deductible donation to adopt a dingo plays a vital role in the sustainability of our life saving rescue work.
When a dingo comes into our care, we immediately cover expenses for emergency vet treatment, microchip, vaccinations, parasite control, and at a later date desexing. As many dingoes come into our care from the wild in critical condition, we rehabilitate these beautiful animals for many months, sometimes even over a year, covering all rehabilitation expenses along the way. Your donation to adopt an animal in our care covers a portion of these expenses and allows us to continue our life saving work. By donating to us you are not only helping the individual animal you have adopted but are supporting future rescue cases. Thank you for partnering with us to save the wild-hearted. Application FormTo begin our adoption care application we would like to gather some information about you, your home and your interest in dingo care. This helps us match you with the most suitable dingo. Please take some time to carefully complete our application form below.

KirimaTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 991001002378905
Beautiful Kirima is ready for his forever family. This little man is an absolute sweetheart with a cheeky, but gentle soul. He is so appreciative of everything around him and loves to be part of a family. He is extremely intelligent and is quick to figure out how things work.
Kirima had his eye removed when he first came into care with us as it was severely damaged. He was orphaned at a very young age and was found unconscious on the side of a road. He has been through a great deal of rehabilitation and is now a healthy and happy pup. Kirima is going to need that special someone who understands his needs. Obviously having his vision halved, he does bump into things at times and it takes him a little longer to become comfortable in new surroundings as he knows he has a disability. He often uses his foster carers leg as a guide for his blind side and walks with her as they go about their daily routines. Once he feels comfortable and secure in his home, Kirima loves everything with his entire heart. He loves to be playing outside and loves running. He would be best suited to a home with other dogs/dingoes that he can play with and have for company and support. He loves a good wrestle and game of tug o war with his current fury foster brothers. Kirima needs a family with time, patience and understanding. He needs people who are going to make him feel safe and secure and introduce him to new things at a slow pace to continue building confidence. He settles around new people in a short amount of time. Especially if treats are involved. Kirima knows his name and does come when he is called... if there is nothing more interesting going on! He knows sit and stay and is gentle around food. He walks well on lead in his environment but does need work walking on lead in new surroundings. Once again this comes down to confidence building. Kirima really is a cheeky, happy go lucky, funny little goofball who will make your heart melt. If you think you can give this gentle, loving soul a forever home please fill out the application form to the left. BurtTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 956000006481054
Burt came into care with his brother Ernie. They were both in awful condition and needed help fast.
Burt has spent most of his time in foster care with us. He is growing quicker by the minute and has become such a cheeky and confident little man. Burt loves other dogs and he is friendly around people that he is comfortable with. He is a really sweet dingo but he does have the typical boisterous boy personality. Burt will need a strong lead to help with his confidence and make sure his mischief doesn't get out of hand. Burt loves cuddles and kisses and will happily sit on your lap for hours. His favourite toy is a tennis ball which we will happily chase across the floor when ever he gets the chance. If you have room in your heart and home for Burt, please complete the adoption form to the left. BonnieTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 94100009972323
Bonnie was brought into our care, heavily pregnant along with her partner, Copper on Mother’s Day 2018. She gave birth to 5 beautiful pups only days later.
Bonnie is a smart and loving dingo. When she wants some attention, she loves to gently reach out her paw and tap you on the arm indicating that it’s time for a pat. She is always up for adventures with Copper by her side and travels well in the car. Bonnie responds well with training and will happily show you her sitting on command. She is in good health. All vet work will be up-to-date upon adoption. We would love for the pair to be rehomed together. They would be best suited to a home where they are the only focus. If you can give this pair a loving home, please fill out the application form to the left. |
KellyTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 982009106461607
Kelly is a vivacious dingo who loves attention and loves to eat! She is sometimes shy upon first meeting, but warms up very quickly to those who build a bond with her. Kelly is a very loyal and affectionate dingo. She craves family time and will always want to be part of the action and adventure.
Despite her senior age Kelly is full of beans. She loves to play and go on walks, always displaying her best manners when on lead and while travelling in the car. Kelly needs a home that can give her lots of attention and understanding. She is not an animal that enjoys being alone. She is polite towards other dogs but slow introductions are needed. At just 9 years of age we would very much like to see beautiful Kelly in a new home. She deserves a family that will love her as much as we do!! LyraTax deductible adoption donation of $650 or more
Microchip Number: TBA
Beautiful wild born orphan Lyra is ready for her forever home.
Lyra is an energetic little girl who loves to run and play, and run and run.....and run! While she loves playing with all her toys, Lyra is happiest when she’s racing and tumbling around with her older foster brother Didgey. Like most dingoes Lyra is a determined little girl and a quick learner. Although still timid around people, Lyra is a gentle sweetheart and her curious nature keeps her from holding back for too long. Lyra would thrive in a household that has another playful canine companion with someone who can fulfill her curiosity needs with plenty of exciting adventures. Lyra will need someone that can provide her with lots of stimulation and socialist to make sure she grows into a healthy, well rounded, confident young dingo. If you would like to adopt Lyra into your home, please fill out the application form to the left. ChurroTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or moreMicrochip Number: 991001001545187
Charming Churro is a stunning man filled with bundles of energy and adventure.
Churro is an extremely intelligent dingo who needs someone who is going to be patient with him. He needs an environment that will offer love, nurture and guidance to help him with his confidence in his new home. He needs a strong leader who he can trust and follow and who will offer him consistency as he does best in an environment with a routine. Churro is a very loving animal and he knows many commands that he is happy to show you when he is comfortable. He knows sit, stay, heel, gentle, down, lay down, shake, come, and he responds to various whistles. Churro is house trained and would do best in a home with older children. He likes other dogs but slow introductions are needed. Churro would do wonderfully in a home where furry friends are treated like family. He would love a home where he can be part of the every day family fun, as well as go on lots of dingo friendly fun filled adventures. KimbaTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 900032002951434
Kimba is a beautiful young lady from last years abandoned orphans. She is a sweet companion with the perfect amount of cheekiness. She came into our care with her brother Onyx. After months of rehabilitation at our sanctuary and in foster care this gorgeous girl is now searching for her forever home.
Her foster care environment has other dingoes, young children and many feathered friends and visitors. Kimba, like many wild born orphans is naturally shy and timid when new people are introduced. Once she realises that the person is going to stick around, her curiosity will usually get the better of her and she’ll eventually come and sniff you. This same cautious but curious nature also applies to new furry friends, making her introduction to other dogs calm and friendly. Kimba walks fantastic on lead and thoroughly loves adventuring with her foster family. She does take some convincing to pop her collar on but she can be won over with treats and love. In time with some more trust and patience this will improve. Her striking black and white coat is absolutely stunning. She turns heads wherever she goes. Kimba knows her name and is quite food motivated. We are still working on basic training like sit and come but she walks beautifully on lead and will always stay close with her pack. Kimba is very alert and always watching and wanting to be involved. In her current environment, Kimba has access to the house during the day as well as a decent sized yard with some safe places to hide if she becomes overwhelmed. It will be a requirement that she has company and safe spaces in her new home in order to really flourish. If this beautiful girl would make the perfect forever friend for you, please fill out the adoption form to the left. AuroraTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 956000005673902
This beautiful little lady is a wild born orphan who came into care with us just in time.
She has been in foster care for a number of months and she is doing wonderfully. Aurora is such a gentle soul with the cheekiest personality. She loves to play and is great at creating her own little games. She adores all dogs and dingoes and follows her older foster siblings around everywhere. Aurora loves a scratch and will often nudge you with her nose when she isn't getting one. While she has come such a long way, Aurora does need work on building her confidence with humans. She likes to sit back and watch her foster Mum go about her daily tasks. She is incredibly intelligent and observes everything. Aurora is absolutely beautiful with such a sweet personality. If you would like to adopt Aurora, please fill out the adoption form to the left. ErnieTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 953010003394431
Ernie is a happy little ball of sunshine. This beautiful boy is such a loving young man who always has that cheeky dingo smile on his face.
Ernie is a very energetic young dingo. He loves to run and play but above all he loves a cuddle. There is no such thing as personal space with Ernie. According to him your lap is the place to be. Ernie hates being alone so he needs a home with another dog or dingo to keep him company. He needs humans who are energetic and active and who are willing to devote time to his training and progress. Ernie can be very independent at times so he will need that strong alpha lead from his human to give him guidance. Ernie knows his name and he knows how to sit. His manners around food are amazing. He adores other dogs and loves to play and wrestle. He loves a swim and will run until he flops onto the floor for a nap. He loves being outside but is used to sleeping inside at nights. His search for belonging is strong so being part of the family is extremely important for this young man. If you wish to adopt Ernie along with all of his cheeky dingo antics please fill out the adoption form to the left. BanjoTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 991001000611635
Banjo is a handsome dingo who will make a gentle companion.
His journey started when he was found in the bush as a young pup with no sign of his parents. He spent the first year in our sanctuary where he learned to be a dingo with the other pups and dingoes in our care. Banjo made great progress in the sanctuary given his rough start to life and transitioned into foster care where he has been learning how to live with a family in a domestic setting for a number of months. His quiet and gentle nature makes him a firm favourite of the two young girls in his foster home. Banjo is reserved until he gets to know you but once he does, you’ll be greeted by his beautiful long and bushy tail fanning out a special greeting for you. When you sit quietly he’ll come up to you and loves to get a gentle pat or to softly smell what you have been up to for the day. He is house trained and will sit quietly on his bed watching the activities of the household. Banjo loves to go out for a walk with those he trusts and again responds very well to his young foster guardians and will walk well on lead for them. He has made excellent progress with his foster carers and will respond to commands such as ‘leave it’, ‘come’ and ‘sit’. On the home front where Banjo is free to move around more easily he plays well with other dogs and dingoes including puppies and has never shown any aggression towards people. He loves a good squeaky toy (has even been known to retrieve!) and keeps all of us amused with the obvious joy he has for hiding his soft toys around the garden. Banjo is a gentle soul, wise beyond his two young years. He’d do very well in a home where he has a full time human companion. Alternatively if you cannot be home full time, Banjo would do well with another dingo or mid/large dog for company during the day and a companion who is willing to invest that little bit extra to help Banjo gain his confidence when out and about with other canines. Banjo is a strikingly good looking example of our beloved dingoes with much of the gentle and cautious nature that have enabled them to survive and thrive for generations on our land. If you would like to offer Banjo a place in your heart and home, please fill out the adoption form to the left. CopperTax deductible adoption donation of $450 or more
Microchip Number: 941000021469124
Copper and his pregnant partner, Bonnie were brought into our care on Mother’s Day 2018. Bonnie had given birth to 5 beautiful pups a few days later.
This young man is a curious and energetic dingo who greets you with the biggest smile on his face the second he sees you. Copper loves exploring on walks with Bonnie and travels well in the car. He is doing well with his training, but does need that strong lead to guide him in the right direction. Copper is in great health. All vet work will be up-to-date upon adoption. We would love for Bonnie and Copper to be rehomed together. The pair would be best suited to a home where they are the only animals and are able to run around. Copper would be able to take advantage of his cheeky and free spirited nature. If you can give this pair a loving home, please fill out the application form to the left. |
