🐶  Adopter Criteria 🐶 Our dogs are on home cooked food twice daily because it is healthier (unless medically the dog requires prescription food). It can be a simple fare consisting of boiled meat and vegetables. The dog is to be given at least 2 walks each day, about 20-30mins slow walk for exercise and mental stimulation. Never off leash outside. Be financially prepared for pet ownership. As vet bills are increasingly expensive, you must be committed to the dog's medical care during its lifespan. Take preventive measures to reduce potential risks at home for the dog, and making your home safe. If you have an existing dog, please be ready to separate them in the beginning, then slowly introduce for a successful integration. We do not expect the dogs to get along right away so patience is needed. Meeting outside on neutral grounds is quite different from a place where your dog considers it her/his personal territory. Our adoption fee is $350 for dogs age 4 and above. For younger dogs, it will be $500. Upon adoption, we require the adopter to register the dog with AVS for a dog licence (this is a requirement under AVS rules) To adopt, please fill out this form.  Shortlisted candidates will be notified.

He is food motivated and will be easy to engage and reward. He also has a bit of spunk in him and can make you laugh once he gets familiar with you. He also has zoomies at 13!! Thanks to his foster, he has put his past behind him and is health is also on the mend. Even though it is getting harder to find senior dogs homes, we hope his sweet and mild personality will win over someone who can give him his best life after the neglect he suffered. Adoption criteria: Russell requires home-cooked food twice daily and his family should not make him be left alone at home. As a guide, he should not be left alone for more than 4 hours as he is a senior dog after all. Given his cardiac disease, the potential adopter must pay meticulous attention to him and make trips to the vet when necessary. This is his story.

Holly HDB-Approved (Under Project Adore) * Female * Local Crossbreed, 10+ years old  * Approximately 20kg * Pee pad trained Holly lived in the forest before she was rescued from a camp site, where she was seen looking for food. She was a bag of bones and had painful wounds all over her body. This is her story She was diagnosed with heartworm, but has since recovered. No major health issues at this stage except for the occasional ear infection. Adoption criteria: As a feral dog, Holly is still very wary of her surroundings. Her new home should have a spare room for her to decompress, and house proof for high-flight risk dogs. While she is still a little afraid of humans, she is not aggressive. If she is scared, she would retreat to her private space and avoid eye contact. Holly is a very sweet dog if you give her time to adjust to our way of life. She can co-exist with another dog within a household. Her new family must have experience with Singapore Specials, be able to help her overcome her fear however long it takes and feed her 2-3 meals daily. She is on human grade dog food.

Mr White is a friendly and curious dog who loves walks and sniffing.  If you have the interest to adopt, please fill out the non-obligatory potential adoption form. *Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted

Harper HDB-Approved (Under Project Adore) *Special Needs Dog * Local crossbreed, Female, 11 years old (born with a broken spine) * Vaccinated  * Moves about with her wheelchair, incontinent * Good with children * Good with dogs Born with a severe handicap in her lower spine that cripples her from the waist down, six-week-old Harper was crawling on her chest and dragging her hind legs painfully over rough gravel when she was first spotted at a construction site on Jurong Island. It was so hard for her to search for food, that she had to swallow gravel and metal pins to alleviate the gnawing hunger in her stomach sometimes. Such was the hard life that baby Harper had. Her fate changed for the better when Mr. Aziz, a kind Muslim man who worked in that area, brought her to HOPE’s attention. With the fosterers and volunteers’ love and patience, Harper is now a changed dog. She is much happier and clearly enjoys the new lease of life given to her. After the rescue, Harper went through two more unfortunate episodes that threatened to take her away from us – a chest infection due to the haze, and a blockage in her stomach, but she braved them all, valiantly and admirably, just like a warrior.  Harper is 11 years old and a bundle of joy to all those who have had the good fortune to meet her.  Read about our little ray of hope here and here.
