Spring is for new beginnings: Pound pups seek their forever families

Published on 19 September 2025

This spring, let love blossom in your home and in your heart with one of Council’s pawfect pound pups. Our friendly, furry, and fun-loving pack are on the hunt for their forever homes – and our team are here to help you find your new lifelong friend.

Welcoming a rescue animal into your life means gaining years of love, joy, and companionship for as little as $150 plus registration costs.

You’ll also be giving one of these loyal, faithful animals a second chance at finding their forever family and the loving home they deserve.

Whether you’ve been on the lookout for a four-legged companion, the kids have begging you for that new puppy, or if you’ve just got room in your heart of gold to make a home for an animal in need – we’d love to help you find your perfect match.

Adding a new member to your household is a significant decision.

Our staff are on-hand to help guide you through the adoption process, address your questions and concerns, and give you the information you need to know about adopting a new pet.

Your support and compassion will help us to ensure that all of our local animals find a home and a loving family. 

Can’t wait? Get in touch today and experience the magic of falling in love with your new four-legged family member.

Call us on 1300 345 345 or email council@snowymonaro.nsw.gov.au to make a date with your new furry friend.

Meet some of our eligible barkchelors and barkchelorettes below, or head online to https://qrco.de/4furever to meet the whole crew.

Cindy

Cindy is a jubilant five-and-a-half-year-old female Jack Russell with joie de vivre and the kind of dog-show-stopping looks that’d make your local breeder blush.

This little pocket-rocket is the total package.

Kick-start your heart and make 2025 the spring you get the spring back in your step.

Come on down to the pound and find your spark with Cindy today.

Tango

You don’t need to be flush with cash to dance with our top-dog Tango. While he might be a bit of a bitsa, he’s got a big pedigree heart that’s just full of love to give.

At just 18 months old, this big fella’s still got his whole life ahead of him. 

But just like Sly in ‘89, he needs a partner in crime to help save the day. 

Swing round to the pound. Meet Tango today.

Diezel

He’s smart. He’s handsome. He’s a four-year-old German Shepherd just guaranteed to get your motor running – that’s right – it’s our very own darling Diezel.

If you used to tune-in to Inspector Rex and always dreamt of having a mischievous crime-fighting wingman of your very own, we can’t make any guarantees, but we think Diezel might just be the man for the job.

Crack the case and come meet Diezel today.

Jacqui

Cooma’s very own resident Queen of the Kelpies is serving more than her fair helping of beauty, brains, vim, vigour, and charisma.

Her mum might have called her Jacqueline, but to you she can just be Jacqui.

With all the style, class and soft-spoken charm of her famous American namesake, you too can feel like the leader of the free world when you’ve got a girl like Jacqui standing by your side. Make a date today.
