Kirislin Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I wont post a link but if there's the right person out there in NSW he's for sale for $1. I'm sure you can guess where to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelpiecuddles Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 At least he has some good info in the add that should deter anyone who doesn't get how hard they are to keep well. Hopefully he'll find a good forever home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Is there no association that would help. I did meet a couple years ago that did work with dingoes. I met two dingoes and they wouldn't be many peoples cup of tea. Edited July 19, 2014 by skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixeduppup Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I know wildcare take dingo pups but I don't know about adults Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottsmum Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Urgh. I wonder if Symbio or somewhere like that might be able to care for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelpiecuddles Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 It says he came from a wildlife park originally. problem is dingoes form a strong pack dynamic, you can't just throw another one in with an existing group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdierikx Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 The problem with having dingoes as pets is that they need to have been separated from their mum pretty early - or at least extremely well handled by humans from a very early age - or they won't make very good family pets at all. Sounds like this fellow has bitten off way more than he could chew, and now has a destructive and unruly teenage dog on his hands that he wants rid of - he mentions that the dog has had no training and is in great need of some... *sigh* I'm guessing that he's probably already tried to get the wildlife parks around to take the dog and they have politely declined. Symbio don't have the room for him, and I'm pretty sure Featherdale have their hands full with 4 adults and 7 new pups at the moment. Don't know about Castle Hill or Gosford Reptile parks situations re Dingoes, as I haven't been to either yet. He might have a chance with Taronga - I've noticed that their old Dingo enclosure has been empty for a while now... T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixeduppup Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 He's need a separate area as dingoes don't take kindly to outsiders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdierikx Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I've emailed the advertiser and politely suggested that Taronga may be an option for his Dingo pup... fingers crossed... T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
