Meet Vinnie, a 7-year-old, 28kg Staffy boy with a gentle soul and an incredible story. You might recognize his name - he was one of 67 dogs surrendered in a widely publicized case. While his past is likely far from ideal, Vinnie is now looking ahead to a future filled with love, comfort, and the care he truly deserves. Vinnie is affectionate, charming, and always ready to melt hearts with his polite begging and habit of propping himself up on chairs like he's part of the team. He's spent time in the office with us, where he's shown he's mostly toilet trained (though he may occasionally mark) and perfectly content simply relaxing near his people. He doesn't ask for much - just a calm environment, gentle companionship, and a soft place to rest. Vinnie has osteoarthritis, so he's searching for a committed adopter who can help manage his ongoing care needs. This includes regular vet visits for Pentosan injections, a healthy diet supported by joint supplements like glucosamine or 4cyte and short, gentle walks to keep him moving without overexertion. Most importantly, he needs to stay warm, cosy, and comfortable. Dog staff are able to go through his ongoing care with his adopters. This sweet boy is best being the only dog in the home due to his medical needs and he's even shown the potential to coexist peacefully with a cat. Vinnie's heart is open, and he's ready to share his love with someone special who can offer him the safety and happiness he's never truly known. If you think you could be that person, please apply today.
