INDY & BOOF
INDY & BOOF
Indy and Boof
Introducing 10 year old Indy 
The way to this girls heart is with belly scratches – so much so she will she’ll give you a light scratch with her paw to ask you to keep going!
She loves to chase her tail and to chase those pesky flies away! She also loves a quiet sun bake or a rest by the heater.
She knows ‘sit’, and ‘come’, and sometimes ‘stay’ or ‘wait’. She turns to mush when there’s a storm or fireworks and needs you around to make her feel safe.
And, now let’s introduce 8 year old Boof! 
The way to his heart is with quality time! He loves knowing you’re there and a good ol’ cuddle!
He can ‘sit’, ‘shake’ and ‘wait’ for treats of course! He’ll bark at storms and fireworks if left outside, but is fine inside.
Boof only knows his life with Indy in it, and Indy wouldn’t have it any other way. Therefore, they are looking for someone to love them both equally.

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.

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.
