Desperate for Love Dog Pound Rescue We are a volunteer run, NFP dog rescue based in Perth WA. As our dogs are usually rescued from pounds, we are often unaware of their age, breed and background.

At Desperate for Love Dog Pound Rescue (DFL) we aim to find rescue dogs their permanent homes with families who will commit to loving them for the rest of their days! The dogs in our care live temporarily with foster families in Perth Metro while we prepare them for adoption; completing their vaccinations, microchipping, desexing & other medical care, and getting to know their personalities and needs. We don’t have a central location as our foster carers are based all over Perth, so you are welcome to view our dogs online at: www.savour-life.com.au/adopt-a-dog/rescue-groups/7422/ and contact us by email if you would like to apply for & meet one of our dogs. Please be aware that each dog may have many applications for their adoption and our goal is to select the home best matched to the needs of the individual dog. Only one applicant can be chosen, & while we do our best to notify unsuccessful applicants or suggest a more suitably matched dog, we appreciate your patience and understanding. While we do try to list an approximate age & breed, there are no guarantees when it comes to rescue dogs. When you adopt a DFL dog, their adoption fee goes towards paying for their vet work along with helping other dogs in need! We also rescue dogs that are very old or ill and care for them under our rescue for whatever time they have left – these are our 'Forever Fosters'.

Kiara is a beautiful 1-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer x Catahoula looking for her foster or forever home in Perth, WA.

She’s a loving, affectionate and generally calm girl who adores her people, pats and food!

She’s house trained, travels well in the car, walks beautifully on lead and has great recall off lead.

Kiara would love to be the only pet in an experienced, adult-only home where she can enjoy being the centre of attention. A calm, structured home with someone who understands her needs is important.

If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will happily settle by your side, Kiara could be the girl for you. ❤️

Hi, I'm Johnson!

I’m sadly returning to the rescue due to me not being able to cope well with the arrival of a younger sibling. Unfortunately, I found the increased noise, movement & activity quite overwhelming 😢

I’m therefore looking for a calm & experienced home to settle & thrive in! Somewhere with no young children would suit me best.

Here’s more about me:
🐶 I’ve been working on my confidence!
🐾 I respond well to calm guidance, structure & positive reinforcement
🦴 I can live with another dog pending a successful meet

I am available for immediate consideration for the position of your best friend!

Salary: treats 🍡
Benefits: unlimited cuddles 🥰
Work environment: preferably your couch 🐶

Please share this post if you don't have room for me but know someone who does ❤️ I’m looking for a foster or foster with view to adopt home

🚨💗 KATARA IS LOOKING FOR HER FOREVER HOME💗🚨

Meet Katara 🥰 — a beautiful 6-year-old, large Rhodesian Ridgeback x Staffy 🐾🏡

Katara is a sweet girl who just needs someone willing to give her time, patience and space to trust. ❤️

✨ Loving & affectionate once she knows you
✨ Loves cuddles & chilling on the sofa 🛋️
✨ Happy living with dogs & cats 🐶🐱
✨ Crate trained
✨ Needs a calm, patient home
✨ Happy to settle in at her own pace

Katara can be nervous with new people, so she needs a home that understands she may need a little time before she’s ready for cuddles and attention. Once she trusts you, you’ll discover what a gorgeous, affectionate girl she really is. 🥹💕

🍖 Important: Katara requires a strict single-protein diet and cannot have chicken or chicken by-products.

She has already lost the home she loved through no fault of her own. 💔 She deserves to be back in a home where she can feel safe, loved and settled again.

📩 Contact DFL via the link below if you can offer this beautiful girl a patient and loving home. 💗🐾

Bronson is a gorgeous 5-month-old Bull Arab cross located in Perth, WA, and he’s a happy-go-lucky young boy with a big personality and an even bigger heart.

He’s loving, intelligent and eager to please, enjoying time with his people and doggy friends. He can be a little cautious with men initially, but once he gets to know you, he quickly warms up and loves a cuddle.

Bronson is crate trained, toilet trained, sleeps through the night and is learning his manners beautifully.

He’s still very much a puppy, so his forever family will need to continue his training and provide plenty of guidance as he grows.

Puppy school is strongly encouraged to help Bronson develop good social skills, confidence and become a happy, well-adjusted adult dog.

With his goofy personality, puppy-dog eyes and giant paws, Bronson is ready to find a family who will love and guide him as he grows into the wonderful dog he’s destined to be.

MEET MEEKAH — PROFESSIONAL CUDDLE SEEKER & BELLY RUB ENTHUSIAST! 🐾🎀

Hello hoomans! 👋 My name is Meekah, I’m a gorgeous 2-year-old mixed-breed girl, and I have a very important question…

When can I move in? 😂🏡💕

I’m a gentle, affectionate girl who believes that being part of the family is pretty much the BEST thing ever. ❤️ Wherever my people are, that’s where you’ll find me!

My other hobbies include:
🩷 Cuddles
🩷 Attention
🩷 BELLY RUBS… lots and lots of belly rubs! 😂🙌
🩷 Being a very good girl
🩷 Showing off how clever I am 🧠✨

I’m toilet trained, know my basic commands AND have completed obedience training 🎓🐾 — so basically, I’m ready to impress my new family!

👶 I’ve lived happily with small children and I’m a lovely, gentle girl.

🐶 I’d ideally like to be the only dog so I can have ALL the attention to myself (I’m not saying I’m an attention seeker… but I’m also not denying it 😉😂). I could potentially live with a calm male dog after the right introductions.

🏡 I’m currently in foster care and looking for my forever family — somewhere I can be part of the family, soak up the love and continue my very important belly-rub research! 🥰

✨ Gentle
✨ Loving
✨ Clever
✨ Family-friendly
✨ Small-child approved
✨ Toilet trained
✨ Obedience trained
✨ Professional cuddle & belly-rub recipient 😂💕

If you think your home has a Meekah-shaped space waiting for her, you’d better get in touch! 🥹🐾❤️

🚨💙 ARLO NEEDS OUT OF KENNELS! 💙🚨

Meet Arlo 🥰 — a 2-year-old, XL American Bulldog cross with a HUGE heart and an even bigger love for his people! 🐶❤️

This big goofy boy is basically a professional cuddle monster who has absolutely NO idea how big he is! 😂🫶

✨ Affectionate & friendly
✨ Loves his people
✨ Knows “sit” & has great recall
✨ Walks well once settled
✨ Loves learning & picks up training quickly
✨ Can happily spend time on his own

Arlo is a big, strong boy, so he needs a confident and dedicated person who will continue his training, provide clear boundaries and help him learn his best manners. 💪🐾

But honestly… underneath all that size is just a lovable, goofy boy desperate to have a family of his own. 🥹❤️

🏡 Arlo desperately needs a foster home ASAP — or even better, a foster home with a view to adopt!

Please don’t let this gorgeous boy spend another day waiting in kennels. 💔
