A special offer at the wat djerring Animal Facility is designed to ensure every dog has its day. 

For a limited time, dogs and puppies can be adopted from the wat djerring Animal Facility for half the usual cost, making it easier than ever to give a loving home to a four-legged friend in need. 

The reduced price is not the only benefit of adopting from the animal facility, where all pets are health-checked, vaccinated, microchipped and desexed to ensure a smooth transition into their new environment. The friendly team at wat djerring Animal Facility are experts at matching people with pets that fit their home and lifestyle. 

Providing a new home for a needy pup allows residents to welcome a new best friend into their family while also supporting responsible pet ownership in the community. 

Located at 20 Companion Place in Epping, the wat djerring Animal Facility provides a caring environment while pets find their furever home.

Quotes attributable to Debbie Wood, Acting CEO of the City of Whittlesea: 

“This is the perfect excuse to finally bring home the dog you’ve been dreaming about. There’s nothing quite like the unconditional love and loyalty of a rescue dog, and now you can experience it for half the cost.

“Adopting from our local animal facility is a win for everyone; it gives a dog a second chance, brings joy to a household, and supports responsible pet ownership in our community."
