Diesel & Spud are a bonded pair who are inseparable and will only be homed together. Due to no fault of their own they are urgently looking for a furever home or foster carer.
They are used to the luxury of being inside with their hoomans and love a good cuddle. When they aren’t snuggling and snoozing they love to play and adore the company of children. Both boys love car rides 🚗 and walks , especially if it’s to the beach 🏖 for a swim!
They are house trained, good on lead and know basic commands.
Spud is a happy chappy and loves everybody and everything, however Diesel is not good with cats and is wary of other dogs, so slow and careful socialisation will be key. Diesel also disproves of thunder and fireworks and will need you to be his thunder buddy!
So if a pair of handsome, loving boys will complete your family, you know where to find them! 💙💙

Sasha
Sasha
Sasha is a sweet girl looking for a home where her humans are home a lot so they can give her all the love.
She is not keen on being by herself and can be a little vocal about it. So will need to have mental stimulation to keep her occupied while you are out.
Sasha just loves to run & play! She is a true water baby at heart! It doesn’t matter if it’s a puddle, a clam shell pool or the ocean – water is her happy place.
While Sasha is the perfect houseguest and will have plenty of personality at home she is nervous about being out in the big wide world. She will appreciate her new family giving her time & space to adjust, and with plenty of patience and guidance and her confidence will grow.

Hellllooo I’m Eddie or Mr Ed – up to you 🤣🐾 I am a water baby and loveeee swimming, do you like swimming too? Sometimes I try to escape so I need somewhere pretty secure, but other than that I’m the goodest boy 🥰 I’m a good walker, I love walks actually, I am awesome in a car, I am also super food orientated and love a good treat ☺️
I’ll be honest though, I’m a bit more of a ladies man and I am a bit nervous around young boys. But I’ll warm up to you I just need some time. I am also a lil’ deaf in my right ear and find it harder to see out of my right big bright blue eye too 🤷♀️ But really it doesn’t affect me I’m super dooper healthy 👌🏼
I am such a sweetie pie (if I say so myself 😏) and cant wait to spend my days hanging out with my new fam-bam 🤞🏼🥰

ZEUS
Zeus
This beautiful bouncy boy will bounce his way into your heart, just like he mimics his bouncing kangaroo neighbours
He loves a cuddle. The beach. Long walks. Couch time, and is good in the car.
He loves his doggo companion but he has to be the boss – so he needs to be matched with a certain type of doggo.
Zeussy is clever and would love to show you how he sits, stays and waits, but does need more training to be the bestest doggo he can be.
He needs more practice on the lead – as he’ll pull to start with and gets excited when he sees another dog or animals.
He is crate trained and the crate can go with him. He isn’t keen on sudden loud noises but is okay with thunder. He needs to wear a muzzle at the vets.
If Zeussy is the bouncy boy you’ve been searching for – let us know!

He can sit and come to his name, and loves water and to play with other doggos! He’s even a fan of fruit and vegetables. He is good in the car so long as he is clipped in, otherwise he still thinks he can ‘lap dog’
He requires a patient and understanding owner who will continue to train him and provide him with mental stimulation and positive reinforcement. For this reason, he is best homed with another dog. His current best doggo friend is a large huntaway x

Bindi & Luna
Bindi & Luna
consideration will be given to individual adoption
This delightful duo love to run and have free rein. They’re used to a large property and would be ideally suited to you – if your property is large too!
Although… as long as you commit time to them for outings and exercise a smaller yard could work as well.
They love a cuddle and will take any opportunity they can get. They also love to play ball and chasey
They do need more training as they think the only appropriate greeting is a jumping greeting!
However, they can sit for food and come to their names. They adore the dog park and are great with all other doggos, but need more practice on lead.
They are good in the car and at the vets and will tolerate a bath. They love the beach but paddling their feet is as far as they go in the scary surf
Bindi is black and white. Bindi is scared of thunder and fireworks and will hide.
Luna is black and tan. Luna isn’t too bothered by anything but can be a bit much for Bindi at times!

This delightful duo love to run and have free rein. They’re used to a large property and would be ideally suited to you – if your property is large too!
Although… as long as you commit time to them for outings and exercise a smaller yard could work as well.
They love a cuddle and will take any opportunity they can get. They also love to play ball and chasey
They do need more training as they think the only appropriate greeting is a jumping greeting!
However, they can sit for food and come to their names. They adore the dog park and are great with all other doggos, but need more practice on lead.
They are good in the car and at the vets and will tolerate a bath. They love the beach but paddling their feet is as far as they go in the scary surf
Bindi is black and white. Bindi is scared of thunder and fireworks and will hide.
Luna is black and tan. Luna isn’t too bothered by anything but can be a bit much for Bindi at times!

More information
We pride ourselves on responsible adoption practices. This means that, on adoption, every pet rehomed through SAHARA will be:
- De-sexed (exceptional circumstances may apply i.e. age, health. This will be strictly detailed and signed off in the adoption contract)
- Microchipped
- Vaccinated (first)
- Wormed
- Flea treated.
In exceptional circumstances, the abovementioned may need to be arranged during or shortly after trial end. Should this be required, it will be agreed in consultation with the applicant (new owner).
Our adoption fee seeks to cover the above-mentioned costs, administration fees and overheads to keep SAHARA running.
We would like to highlight that SAHARA takes in the ill, injured, seniors and animals on Death Row that are often overlooked, even by other rescues and shelters. This means we incur higher than usual medical expenses for a number of our animals that our adoption fee does not come close to covering.
Our animals are vet checked and we make every effort to ensure they are in good health at the time of adoption. We can offer no guarantees as to their condition long term.
At the end of two-week trial, all ongoing costs are the responsibility of the new owner (e.g. flea and worming treatments, medical costs, ongoing vaccination).
Lifetime guarantee
Our adoption contract includes a clause that should the animal need re-homing at any time in its life, we are to be contacted and the animal returned to us.

❗️Breed experience / knowledge of wolfhounds is a must.
We have a handsome boy coming into our care.
He can be a little anxious when left alone but loves it if you leave licky mats and treats out to help him with being alone.
He walks great on lead, is working on his obedience training and is crate trained at night.
He loves nothing more than going out in the car with you on new adventures.
Note: he is not good with dogs, cats, and other small animals. He also can be selective with new people.

Diesel & Spud
Here they are: the bonded pair who are going to steal your heart ❤️, and probably most of the couch 🛋!
Diesel & Spud are a bonded pair who are inseparable and will only be homed together. Due to no fault of their own they are urgently looking for a furever home or foster carer.
They are used to the luxury of being inside with their hoomans and love a good cuddle. When they aren’t snuggling and snoozing they love to play and adore the company of children. Both boys love car rides 🚗 and walks , especially if it’s to the beach 🏖 for a swim!
They are house trained, good on lead and know basic commands.
Spud is a happy chappy and loves everybody and everything, however Diesel is not good with cats and is wary of other dogs, so slow and careful socialisation will be key. Diesel also disproves of thunder and fireworks and will need you to be his thunder buddy!
So if a pair of handsome, loving boys will complete your family, you know where to find them! 💙💙

Sasha
Sasha is a sweet girl looking for a home where her humans are home a lot so they can give her all the love.
She is not keen on being by herself and can be a little vocal about it. So will need to have mental stimulation to keep her occupied while you are out.
Sasha just loves to run & play! She is a true water baby at heart! It doesn’t matter if it’s a puddle, a clam shell pool or the ocean – water is her happy place.
While Sasha is the perfect houseguest and will have plenty of personality at home she is nervous about being out in the big wide world. She will appreciate her new family giving her time & space to adjust, and with plenty of patience and guidance and her confidence will grow.

Sometimes I try to escape so I need somewhere pretty secure, but other than that I’m the goodest boy 🥰 I’m a good walker, I love walks actually, I am awesome in a car, I am also super food orientated and love a good treat ☺️
I’ll be honest though, I’m a bit more of a ladies man and I am a bit nervous around young boys. But I’ll warm up to you I just need some time. I am also a lil’ deaf in my right ear and find it harder to see out of my right big bright blue eye too 🤷♀️ But really it doesn’t affect me I’m super dooper healthy 👌🏼

Zeus
This beautiful bouncy boy will bounce his way into your heart, just like he mimics his bouncing kangaroo neighbours
He loves a cuddle. The beach. Long walks. Couch time, and is good in the car.
He loves his doggo companion but he has to be the boss – so he needs to be matched with a certain type of doggo.
Zeussy is clever and would love to show you how he sits, stays and waits, but does need more training to be the bestest doggo he can be.
He needs more practice on the lead – as he’ll pull to start with and gets excited when he sees another dog or animals.
He is crate trained and the crate can go with him. He isn’t keen on sudden loud noises but is okay with thunder. He needs to wear a muzzle at the vets.
If Zeussy is the bouncy boy you’ve been searching for – let us know!
