🐾 Meet Dozer 💤

Dozer is a 2-year-old Bloodhound cross who loves a quiet life and plenty of naps. He’s an independent boy who enjoys his own space, with the occasional pat.
He can get along with larger dogs, but is best suited to a single dog home or with another big dog who won’t mind his size and enthusiasm. He’s still learning his basics, including walking on lead, but is showing he’s a smart boy.

Untested with cats, children and small dogs.

💙 Adoption fee: $162 (includes microchipping, registration and treatments)
🏡 Available for adoption or foster (within the Shire)

Give Dozer the second chance he deserves 💛
