Dear Potential Family,
Though I'm a 10-week-old deaf puppy named Benedict, I want to share the joy I can bring to your home. Despite being deaf, I'm full of love and eager to form a strong bond with you. We'll communicate through gestures and visual cues, which will deepen our connection in a unique way.
I'm a loyal companion who is ready to learn and grow with you. Training me will be a rewarding journey that fosters patience and creativity. Together, we'll celebrate every milestone and overcome any challenges that come our way.
I may have some special needs, but I'm just as loving and capable as any other puppy. With your understanding and support, I'll thrive in a loving home where I can be myself and bring endless joy to your life.
Looking forward to becoming a part of your family,
Dearest Readers, the time has come for these precious pups to make their grand debut into society. Should you wish to extend your home and heart to one of these delightful Bridgertons, we encourage you to visit our shelter and witness their charm firsthand. Until then, I remain your ever-faithful observer.

Important Considerations
Before you fall in puppy-love, here's a gentle reminder of what you need to be prepared for to ensure a happy and healthy life for your new furry friend:
THINGS TO DO LIST:
• Toilet training: Consistent and patient guidance will be needed to help your little Bridgerton learn where to go.
• General house training: Teaching your little Bridgerton the house rules and routines.
• Neighborhood socialisation: Introducing your little Bridgerton to society and the sights, sounds, and smells of your community.
• Puppy training: This includes lead walking and recall training to ensure safety and well-adjusted pup.
• Departure and home alone training: Helping your little Bridgerton feel secure when left alone.
• Car travel training: Ensuring your little Bridgerton is comfortable and safe during car rides.
• Polite interactions: Teaching your little Bridgerton to interact gently with children and the elderly.
• Dog-to-dog socialisation: Helping your little Bridgerton develop good manners around other dogs.
We also recommend that before you commit to this pup, you make a budget as the financial commitment can be significant and ongoing. The adoption fee for Benedict is $550.00, which helps to cover the cost of mandatory de-sexing, vaccinations, microchip, and a lot of care from RSPCA ACT. After all, who says you can't buy love?
Dear Visitor, please note a property check may be required before adoption to ensure the safety and welfare of our animals. Rental agreements allowing pets will be required for adoptions into rental properties.
Please note that this website is live and updates frequently, there is a chance that by the time you arrive at our location the animal you have an interest in might have been adopted by another party. We unfortunately can not put animals on hold over the phone.
