Surrendering a Dog ...

We understand that circumstances change and sometimes things don't go according to plan. If you need to re-home your dog, please follow the steps below and we will assist you as best we can.

​

STEP 1:

Download and complete the Surrender Request Form here

​

STEP 2:

Email this completed form with current photos of the dog and applicable vet certificates to surrenders@workingpaws.com.au – please note that there will be significant delays if information is missing and available spots may become filled. 

​

STEP 3:

Please be patient while we process your request. We will do our very best to get back to you within 24 hours. If you have not had a response within 48 hours, please check-in as emails do sometimes go missing. Whether your request is successful or not, you will receive communication from us.

​

STEP 4:

If we are able to take the dog into our care, we will send you the relevant paperwork and explain the next steps in the surrender process.

​

​

Please note we are a working breed rescue and will therefore only consider surrenders that fall into this category.
