Hi, my name is Tonka!

I have been waiting 21 days for a home

Learn more about Tonka

Meet Tonka! The guy at the shelter sure to steal hearts with his lovable face and goofy personality.

Tonka is a big boy and although he may appear hard on the exterior, he is just a young dog looking for some love and guidance. He would be best suited to a home with experienced bull breed owners, and no other pets. He is still working on the appropriate ways to make friends, so would really benefit from some ongoing training.

Tonka would love to get out for some walks or runs, maybe a hike – whatever really as long as he is with his person he’s up for almost anything! After a long day of exploring, he’d love nothing more than to cuddle up on the couch.

If you’re a training enthusiast and want a big goofball to love, then Tonka is your guy!

While I'm awaiting my forever home, I'm being fed Savour Life, who are generous partners of AWLQ!

Please Note:

Please visit our Animal Rehoming Centres during opening hours to meet our animals and adopt. No appointment is needed. For select animals, we will require an email application. Where this is the case, instructions will be specified on the animal's profile.

This website is live and updates frequently. To check if an animal is available, please check their adoption profile. If it is active and hasn't been marked as 'adopted', the animal is still here.

Please be aware there is a chance that by the time you arrive at our location, the animal you have an interest in might have been adopted, or another party might be going through the adoption process.
