We understand that needing to surrender a pet can be a difficult and emotional decision, and we’re here to support you through it. Our Surrender Program is designed to help Central Coast owners who feel their dog or puppy may benefit from a fresh start in the care of one of our dedicated foster carers.

​

A quick note: Our Erina and Charmhaven shelters are currently at full capacity, so we’re unable to accept dog or cat surrenders onsite at this time.

​

We do have a number of foster homes available to assist local families. To ensure every animal is placed safely and thoughtfully, we can only consider surrender applications that align with the specific needs and experience of our foster carers.

​

Conditions and a surrender fee apply. Our Foster Coordinator will discuss this with you.

​

Before adoption, all surrendered puppies and dogs will be microchipped, vaccinated, flea‑ and worm‑treated, registered, desexed, and rehomed into carefully vetted, suitable homes.

​

When you’re ready, please submit your application below.
