Rehome

Private Rehoming Form

Your application to re-home your dog

We regret that in most circumstances we will not be able to take custody of your dog immediately as we only have a limited number of foster homes available.
You may be required to keep your dog until a suitable foster or adoptive home can be found.   If that is not possible, please be aware that you may have to surrender your dog to an animal shelter.
If your dog was obtained from a registered breeder, please contact the breeder in the first instance for assistance.    Some breeders may be able to take the dog back, and a reputable breeder will at very least be willing to assist you in finding a suitable new home.

Please note the following requirements:

  • You must be the legal owner of the dog in order to apply for rehoming.
  • Your dog will need to be desexed, vaccinated, microchipped and flea & worm treated prior to rehoming.
    We can help with reduced cost veterinary work through our partner vets if required.
  • You will be required to have your dog temperament tested by our trainer in Melbourne
  • You must provide full disclosure of the temperament and health of your dog via this form.

For more information on our rehoming process please visit our private rehoming page or FAQ’s.

PLEASE NOTE:  Before you start filling in this form, you will need to have the following information:

  • Dates of desexing, most recent vaccination & worming
  • Council registration renewal and registration number.

You will also need to email the following to us at contact@arcticrescue.org.au once you have submitted the form:

  • Copy of desexing certificate which includes microchip number and vet’s signature
  • Current vaccination certificate or card
  • Clear photos of your dog
  • Copy of council registration
