He enjoys playing with all the other dogs in his foster home and loves his human family too.

He will grow into an active and intelligent young dog so is looking for a home that can provide plenty of exercise, stimulation and love.

He will benefit from going to puppy classes so he can learn all the skills needed to become a confident adult dog.

Inquiries about Jimmy or any of the other puppies and dogs available to Animal Welfare League Far South Coast branch on 0400 372 609.

The adoption fee of $375 includes desexing, microchipping, 2 puppy vaccinations, flea, tick & worm treatment plus vet check. Prices are subsidised in the hope that rescue pets will be people's first choice and that eventually we will be able to stop unwanted litters.

Potential dog owners will need to have secure fencing and suitability to the needs of the animal.

For cats and kittens to adopt, call RSPCA Sapphire Coast Branch on 0419 267 799.

Did you know that failure to remove your pet's droppings from public places may result in a hefty fine?

By confining your pets to your property, or keeping them on a lead when walking and picking up and disposing of droppings, you help assist in preserving public open space privileges for both owners and pets alike.

Bega Valley Shire Council provides disposal bags for dog faeces in some areas but owners should always be prepared and carry their own bags for this purpose.

A “Pooch Pouch” attached to your dog’s leash is a great idea so bags are always on hand. Cat owners can help as well by keeping cats confined to their property.
