Otis - 2 Years - Boxer/Staffie Cross

Meet Otis – Pal #1 . . . The Original Pal!

🐾 Age: 2 Years
🐾 Breed: Boxer/Staffie Cross
🐾 Needs: Experienced home, no other pets

Otis has had a rough start, but he's not given up—and neither have we. Passed to us by the council, Otis had been left in a yard day and night, completely isolated from the world. The scars on his nose suggest he was used as a bait dog, but his spirit is still strong.

Since joining the Pabs & Pals family, Otis has gone from a malnourished 20kg to a strong, healthy 40kg. He’s learning what love and kindness feel like—and it’s been amazing to watch him grow.

🌟 Otis’ Journey:

  • Zero human aggression: Despite his past, he’s shown nothing but love for people.

  • Still learning: He’s come a long way with lead training but still needs support.

  • Big dog, big heart: Needs someone confident with large, reactive dogs.

  • Solo star: Must be the only dog in the home—his background makes dog interactions very difficult.

  • For the right person: If you’re ready for a challenge with huge rewards, Otis will give you everything he's got.

Otis deserves a second chance—and the right person will see what an incredible, loving companion he can be. If you’ve got the experience and heart to take on this journey, apply below and meet this warrior of a dog.

Liv

Meet Liv 🐾

🐶 Breed: Pocket Bully (brindle)
🎂 Age: Around 2 years old
📍 Status: Ready to find her forever home

Liv was found as a stray and brought to us by the dog warden. She had no microchip and no medical history - but that’s all changed now. She’s been fully vet checked, vaccinated, microchipped and has her own medical records ready to go.

And honestly… she’s an absolute sweetheart.

Liv is a lovely little brindle pocket bully with a big heart. She loves other dogs and is great with kids. She can get excited when she first meets you - but she settles quickly and is soon back down to earth, soaking up the fuss.

If you already have a dog, we’d ask that you come up a few times for meet and greets to make sure it’s the perfect match for everyone.

She’s had a rough start, but she’s ready for a fresh beginning with a family who’ll love her properly this time.

If you think Liv could be your girl, apply through our website. Let’s get her home 🖤

Maple

Meet Maple 🐾

American Bulldog | Female

Maple is a striking American Bulldog with a truly unique look. Her coat is a stunning merle pattern – soft cream and white tones splashed with chocolate mottling, and those piercing blue eyes stop you in your tracks. She really is a beautiful girl inside and out.

Underneath that eye-catching appearance is a very timid, sensitive soul. Maple can be shy at first, but she comes around quickly once she feels safe. She just needs the right environment to help her build confidence and learn that the world isn’t such a scary place.

We are currently looking for a foster home where she can decompress and start to flourish properly.

🌟 What Maple Needs:

Experienced large-breed handler

Child-free, pet-free home

Calm, low-distraction environment

A crate or safe space she can retreat to

Someone patient who will let her move at her own pace

She’s friendly and gentle, but she needs a home without distractions so she can focus on rebuilding her confidence. We truly believe that, just like Peaches, once Maple is in a stable home environment she’ll really find her feet.

If you can offer this beautiful blue-eyed girl the quiet space she needs, please get in touch.

Poppy

Meet Poppy 🐾

Labrador x Bulldog |  18 to 24 Months Old | Female

Poppy was removed from a bad situation by the police and signed straight over to Pabs and Pals so she could finally have the safe start she deserved. Whatever she’s experienced before, it’s clear she hasn’t always felt secure – but we’re focused on the bright future ahead of her.

She’s a sensitive girl who can be nervous around new people at first, but she does come around really quickly once she realises she’s safe. Once she trusts you, her playful, affectionate side really starts to shine.

Poppy will need a confident, experienced handler who can guide her calmly and consistently while she continues building confidence.

🌟 What Poppy Needs:

Experienced, confident owner

Child-free and pet-free home

Calm, patient environment

A crate or safe space where she can retreat and relax

Ongoing structured training to help her flourish

She isn’t a “problem” dog – she’s a dog who needs patience, reassurance, and someone willing to help her feel safe in the world again.

If you can offer Poppy the steady, loving home she deserves, apply today. 🖤
