How to cuddle a dingo puppy in Melbourne this weekend

Meet, cuddle and photograph the 2018 pups. - by Laura Barry
  • 24 Aug 2018

Every weekend until September 23 the Dingo Discovery Sanctuary and Research Centre in Melbourne is hosting dingo puppy encounters for adults and children.

Visitors will have the opportunity to learn about Australia’s apex predator and native dog in the best way possible – by photographing and cuddling fluffy dingo puppies, and meeting some of the friendly dingo adults.

Last night, our community education team @dingowhiskers visited the Sunbury Girl Guides with ambassador dingoes Bonnie and Saxon. The Sunbury Girl Guides were incredibly enthusiastic and itching to know more about Australia's top apex predator, the dingo. These inspiring young ladies are tomorrow's leaders and we could not be any more proud of them. Thank you so much Sunbury Girls Guides for inviting us to show you our dingoes ☺️ Visit the @dingowhiskers profile for more info 🖱️ #dingo #savethedingo #conservation #rewilding #coexistence #creatingawareness #savingspecies #protectingnature #threatenedspecies #wildlifeconservation #australiannative #australianwildlife #natureinspires #naturelovers #melbswest #dyobmelbourne #melbournenotes #visitmelbourne #meltoncitymuchmore #animalencounter #education #school #schoolincursion #tomorrowsleaders #science #sciencekids #naturalhistory #schoolexcursion

Children must be seven years or older and accompanied by a parent up to 12 years of age. Visitors need to wear full-coverage clothing and footwear, and a barbecue snack bar will be operating between 12:30pm and 4pm each day with soft drinks, tea and coffee available.

Dingo cubs develop far quicker than domestic dogs both mentally and physically. These 7 week olds are already fitter and smarter than any domestic dog puppy their age. To survive in the wild, you have to grow up quickly. There's still time to meet our 2018 litters by clicking the link in our bio! 📸 @focusthisphotography #dingo #dingoesofinstagram #canisdingo #savethedingo #alpinedingo #conservation #rewilding #coexistence #creatingawareness #savingspecies #protectingnature #threatenedspecies #wildlifeconservation #australiannative #australianwildlife #natureinspires #naturelovers #melbswest #dyobmelbourne #melbournenotes #visitmelbourne #meltoncitymuchmore #wandervictoria #tourismvictoria #animalencounter

Tickets can be purchased online, and you can read more about the good work being done by the sanctuary on their website.

Head to Dingo Discovery Sanctuary, 366-400 Melton-Gisborne Road, Toolern Vale, VIC 3337, for your date with a dingo!

As our puppies grow older they become more and more adventurous. At 6 weeks old, these pups are already much more capable and independent than the domestic dog. You can meet our dingo puppies by clicking the link in our bio!
