All dogs must be registered with their local council and be fully vaccinated.
Proof of vaccination and registration will be required at enrolment.
Puppies are required to be registered by law at 13 weeks. However, we acknowledge that sometimes it takes a little while for these to be actioned by Council, and will require this information once available. New adoptions may also take a little longer but delays will not prevent enrolment.
