Buying & Rehoming Advice

Deciding to give up a dog for adoption is one of the hardest choices any pet owner can face. It's not something anyone plans for — but life has a way of bringing unexpected challenges: a job loss, relocation, allergies, a family crisis, or a shift in lifestyle that makes it hard to give your dog the care they deserve.

Whether you're a responsible breeder, moving overseas, or facing life changes, selling a pet is a big decision that should be handled with care. In Australia, there are legal requirements and best practices you must follow to ensure your pet goes to a loving, suitable home.

With more people buying and adopting pets online, scams have sadly become more common in Australia. Fraudsters post fake listings, request upfront payments, and disappear—leaving hopeful pet owners heartbroken and out of pocket.

Choosing the right dog for your family is a big decision, especially in Australia, where the climate, lifestyle, and space can vary widely. Whether you live in the suburbs, a coastal town, or a farm, the ideal family dog should be friendly, adaptable, and great with kids.

Buying a puppy online can be convenient, but it also comes with risks. With scams and unethical breeding practices on the rise, it's essential to know what to look for before clicking "Buy Now."
