Scarlet ❤️

Just like her brother Rogue, our beautiful Scarlet is still not getting any interest 🤯

I’ve been fostering Scarlet myself and she’s the easiest puppy I’ve had at home with me, so smart, picks up training quickly, very friendly with every person and dog she meets, gets along nicely with my cats and gentle with my 5 year old son.

Scarlet’s 5/6 months old, a mixbreed and will likely grow to be medium to large in size.
She’s registered with council for the new registration year, microchipped, fully vaccinated and will be desexed at a later date.

If you’d like to meet Scarlet then send me a message, she’s with me in Hamilton.

Rogue 🖤

How is that face not getting any attention?

We are still looking for Rogue’s forever family.
He’s been with the rescue for a couple months now and even though he’s been one of the easiest pups I’ve had through the rescue, I’d love to find him a home soon.

He’s such a good natured boy, friendly with every person and animal he has met and is really well behaved around my 5 year old son.
He and his siblings were handed in to the pound at a young age, and I’ve heard that they are a very smart litter, and Rogue is no different.
He loves his food and is so easy to train, he walks beautifully on a lead and is so gentle taking treats.

Rogue’s now 5/6 months old and a mixbreed.
He’s a bit bigger than his siblings, he’ll likely grow to be large in size.
He’s registered with council for the new registration year, microchipped, fully vaccinated and will be desexed at a later date.

If you’d like to meet Rogue then send me a message, he’s currently being fostered in Hamilton.

*New dog*

Meet South 🤍

Our newest dog through the rescue is this handsome, friendly, deaf boy 💙

He’s 2 and a half years old, a mixbreed and medium to large in size.
Currently registered with council, microchipped, fully vaccinated and he’ll be desexed soon.

South is a lovely affectionate boy, very well mannered, good with other dogs but would need a home without cats.
We are looking for a family that is experienced around dogs and is willing to put in the time, training, and has secure fencing as South does have a history of roaming.
Owning a deaf dog will have its challenges but he loves people and food, which always helps when training a dog.

If you’d like to meet South then send us a message with some details about the home you could offer.
He’s currently up in Auckland with a foster family.

As always please like and share his posts and let’s find him his forever family 🤍

*Urgent Foster Homes Needed*

We are in urgent need of at least two very special foster homes.
We have been asked to take on a couple dogs whose time in the pounds unfortunately are running up.
We are looking for a couple of homes that are cat or animal free.

We will provide you with everything that is needed and provide you with the advice and training necessary to properly care for the dogs.
You do not need to be based in Hamilton, (north island is preferred) as we are willing to travel to put the dogs in the right homes.

If you think you could open your home temporarily to a loving furry friend until they find their forever home, please reach out to us so we can try get these beautiful dogs into the loving homes they deserve.

As always, please like and share our posts so we can continue help get more dogs out of the pounds and into foster homes and their forever homes ❤️

Rogue & Scarlet 🖤🧡

Our cute siblings joined me on a trip over to Thames on the weekend, and they had lots of fun together being silly puppies at the beach 🌊

I’ve been a bit busy and slow to put up adopted posts, but Zeus, Lola, Ren, Ollie and Victor have all found their forever families 🥳
Which means Rogue and Scarlet are our remaining dogs available for adoption 🤞🏻

They are 4/5 months old, mixbreeds,
Rogue will likely grow to be large in size and Scarlet medium to large.
Rogue is a male, and Scarlet a female.
They are both registered with council, microchipped, fully vaccinated and will be desexed at a later date.

Rogue is being fostered with a family in Hamilton who have young kids, and Scarlet is with myself in Hamilton and has two dogs, two kittens and my 5 year old boy to keep her company.

If you’d like to meet either of them then send me a message ✌🏻

An amazing supporter of the rescue has put together a ‘give a little’ page to help with the costs of desexing our rescue dogs ❤️
I try my best to get by without asking for help, but with each dog we rehome, the adoption fee we get isn’t quite enough to cover all the costs we put into each dog, and eventually that does add up.
If you are in a position to donate then that would be really appreciated.

Scarlet ❤️

Our beautiful little 4 month old pup Scarlet is still looking for her forever family, she’s a mixbreed and will likely grow to be medium to large in size.

She joined me on a trip to Raglan this weekend 🌊
It was her first time at the beach but she was brave enough to follow me into the water, and loved her time playing on the sand with my 5 year old son.

Scarlet’s training is coming along nicely, she’s almost toilet trained, walks nicely on a lead and is learning commands quickly.

She’s currently being fostered in Hamilton with myself, and she’s been really well behaved with my own two dogs, my kittens and my son.

Like any young dog, Scarlet still needs a lot of work put into her, so we are looking for a family that is patient and has time to give her the attention and training she needs.

Scarlet is registered with council, microchipped, fully vaccinated and will be desexed at a later date.
If you’d like to meet Scarlet then send me a message, she’s with me in Hamilton ✌🏻

*New dog*

Meet Victor 💙

Victor is 3 months old, male, mixed breed and is likely to grow to be medium to large in size.
He is microchipped, registered, had his first 2 vaccinations and will be desexed at a later date.

Victor was brought into the pound after he and his siblings were being handed out to members of public in town. His sister Tori was also brought into the pound and was taken in through the rescue. However, she was a foster fail and found her forever family straight away 🥳

Victor is amazing with other dogs, he has loved zooming around the garden at his foster home with their dog.
Victor has met the resident pound cats and wasn’t fussed at all by them, and he’s been great with the young kids in his foster home.
He’s still learning his basic commands but is picking them up quickly.
He will need a family that is going to dedicate time to continuing this.

If you’d like to meet Victor then send me a message.
He’s currently being fostered just outside Hamilton.
As always please like and share our posts so we can find him a family asap ✌🏻

10/04/2024

Ollie 💙

I was lucky enough to have Ollie for an afternoon last week so we headed over to Raglan for his first beach trip 🌊

Despite the excitement of all the new experiences, he behaved really well, interacted nicely with other dogs, walked nicely on the lead, and braved the water, but he didn’t quite know what to make of the waves 😄

Ollie’s 9-10 months old, a mastiff mixbreed and medium to large in size.

He plays nicely with other dogs, has met the office cats with no issues and he’s in a foster home that has young kids.

Ollie unfortunately had no interest after his first post, so if you think you could give him the home he deserves then send me a message.
He’s currently with a foster family in Hamilton.

Rogue is the handsome boy on the left and Scarlet the beautiful floppy eared girl on the right.
They are brother and sister and you can find their other siblings at Hamilton Adopt a Dog

Both have had their first two lots of vaccinations, are registered, microchipped and will be desexed at a later date.

Rogue has been in his foster home for a couple days now and he’s picking up his training quickly, and Scarlet will join her foster family tomorrow. Their foster families are located just outside Hamilton.

We are looking for families who have the time and patience to give our pups the love and training they need.
If you’re interested in meeting either Rogue or Scarlet then send me a message.
Please like and share their posts and let’s find them their forever families asap ✌🏻

Piglet has found her forever family 🥳

After a successful trial Piglet has joined her new family. Unsurprisingly there was a lot of interest in her and I appreciate every message of interest and to those families who made time to come and meet her ♥️

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared her posts, with your help we are able to give our dogs a bigger audience and a better chance of finding a home 🙌🏻

*New dog*

Meet Spenser 🧡

He’s a 9 months old mix breed, medium in size and is currently registered, microchipped, had his first vaccinations and will be desexed soon.

Like a lot of our rescue dogs, Spenser has had a rough start to life, but you wouldn’t guess it if you met him, he’s such a happy boy, friendly and eager to learn.

He’s currently being fostered in Hamilton and has another dog to keep him company.
If you’re interested in meeting him then send me a message.

Please like and share his posts and let’s find him a home asap 🧡

*Adopted*

Leo has finally found his forever family 🥳

After 4 months with the rescue and months before that in the pound, Leo eventually got a lot of interest after his last post 🙌🏻

Leo was fostered with me so I got to see what an awesome dog he is, and he came everywhere with me so I’m going to miss him, but it’s amazing to know others have seen that too and I know he’s going to have the best life with his new family.

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared all his posts 💙

15/08/2023

Chico 💙

Our handsome boy is still looking for his forever family. Chico is 6 months old, a mixbreed who is going to be large in size.
He’s currently registered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and he’ll be desexed soon.

He’s good with kids of all ages, dogs and his first foster family had a cat and there were no issues.

His foster family have told me his training is going well, he has good recall and the only issues are that he is scared around new people.
Chico came into the pound at just a couple months old as a very frightened little pup, it takes him a little while to build trust with people but he’s been getting better as time goes on.
He needs a family that can help him build his confidence, continue his training and show him the world isn’t so scary.

If you’d like to meet Chico then send me a message.
He’s currently being fostered with a family in Hamilton 💙

*New puppies*

Meet Brooke, Bonnie and Bodhi 🖤🧡

They are 8 weeks old, mixbreeds, Brooke and Bonnie are females and Bodhi is a male.
They will likely grow to be medium sized dogs.

All 3 are currently registered, microchipped, they’ve had their first lots of vaccinations and will be desexed at a later date.

They’ve spent the last two weeks in the pound but are now in foster homes around Hamilton.

As we mention with all our puppies, they need families that have the time and patience to train and socialize them.
All 3 are pretty social pups at the moment and are in homes with young kids and other dogs.

If you’d like to meet any of them then send me a message, and as always please like and share their posts so we can find them homes asap ♥️

*Adopted*

Tala has found her forever family 🥳

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared her post, and for all the messages of interest ♥️

We have new puppies that will be advertised soon, and still have Chase, Chico, Mabel, Joey and Theo looking for homes✌🏻

02/08/2023

*New puppies*

Meet Joey and Theo 💙

Our latest rescue pups are Joey(black and white) and Theo(tan and white).
These cute little brothers were found dumped in Otorohanga, but they have been kept safe by one of our lovely foster families and are now ready for adoption 🤞🏻

They are 8-9 weeks old, mix breeds, and will likely grow to be small to medium in size.

They will leave registered, microchipped, they’ve had their first vaccinations and will be desexed at a later date.

As they are puppies and are still learning they will need to go to someone who has patience and is committed to giving them the training they need.

They are being fostered together just outside Hamilton.
Send me a message if you would like to meet either of them, and as always please like and share their posts and let’s find them homes asap 💙

01/08/2023

*New dog*

Meet Mabel ♥️

This special girl is well overdue a family of her own 🤞🏻

She was handed in to the pound over 4 months ago, pregnant and with no owners looking for her. She had some time in a staff members home whilst she gave birth to 11 pups 🤯
And now the pups are old enough and finding their own homes, we would love to find Mabel a home too.

Mabel is around 2 years old, a mixbreed and medium to large in size.
She’s registered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and will be desexed tomorrow.

Mabel has spent time with older and younger kids with no issues, is great with other dogs and would suit a home with a confident cat.
She’s a lovely girl and would make a great addition to any family, but she does have plenty of energy and hasn’t had much training, so a home that can commit to giving her daily walks and has the patience to give her the necessary training is needed.

If you’re interested in meeting Mabel then send me a message.
She’s being fostered with a family in Hamilton ♥️

Awhina has finally found her forever family 🥳

After coming into the rescue with her sister Blue nearly 4 months ago, and some time in the pound before that, it’s amazing to see her finally with her very own family 🍾

22 dogs have come and gone in the time she’s been with us, which is surprising considering she’s been one of the easiest pups I’ve ever met.
A big thank you to her foster family for all they have done for her, I know it was hard for them to say goodbye after looking after her for so long.

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared her posts ♥️

Chase 🧡

It was Chase’s turn this week for a little photo shoot down by the river with Kelsey H Photography 📸

Chase spent over two months at the pound and is coming up to two months with the rescue and he’s still looking for his forever family.

He would suit a home where he is the only dog or paired with a female dog, an experienced home with no cats, and somewhere he’s not left on his own for long periods.

He’s got a very cute personality, affectionate and a quick learner, and he could run all day.
Motivated more by praise than he is food, he’s eager to please and smart so training shouldn’t be an issue.

2 years old
Male
Mixbreed
Medium in size

Chase is currently registered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and desexed.
He’s being fostered with a family in Hamilton.

Send me a message if you’re interested in meeting him.
As always please like and share his posts so we have a better chance of finding him his home ♥️

Leo 🦁

Leo is still available for adoption 🤯
It’s hard to believe that I’ve had this handsome boy with me for 3 months now.

As much as I love him and will miss having him around, I really want to find him his forever family asap. He’s such a cool, affectionate and playful boy and he’s going to make an awesome addition to someone’s family.

Leo is great with other dogs but we’ve seen some dogs can’t handle his energy, so an equally playful dog or a dog that can let him know when play time is over is needed. He comes to the office with me everyday and he is very interested in the cats from afar, but up close he is well behaved and I find it easy to get his attention back.
So a confident cat and some training could work in a home with him.
He loves his food so is easy to train, and he could keep himself entertained all day with toys.

He is very gentle with my 4 year old son and he’s been around lots of kids so I have no issues there.

He does have some separation anxiety so a home where he is not left alone for long periods is a must.

Everyone who knows Leo is surprised he hasn’t been snapped up already as he really is such a friendly and beautiful boy.
If you’re interested in meeting Leo then send me a message 💙

He’s registered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, desexed and is being fostered with me in Hamilton.

*New puppies*

Meet our new fluffy puppies Elvis, Snoop, Tala and Jackson 🖤🤎

They are 12 weeks old, mix breeds, and will likely grow to be medium to large in size.
Elvis, Snoop and Jackson are boys and Tala is a girl.

They are registered, microchipped and they’ve have had their first vaccinations.

They were found dumped in a park and were taken to the pound where they have been for the past few weeks, but they are now in foster homes around Hamilton.

If you’re interested in meeting any of the pups then send me a message.

Please like and share their posts and let’s find them homes asap ♥️

Kenai has found his forever family 🥳

Our handsome boy has been with the rescue for 3 and a half months, and the pound for 3 and a half months before that, so it’s an amazing feeling knowing he’s now in his permanent home and has his own family.

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared his posts. And a big thank you to both his foster families who have put so much time and work into helping him become the lovely, social boy he is today ♥️

22/06/2023

Sienna ♥️

Ezra, Miles and Potter left this week to go on trial with hopefully their new families 🤞🏻
Which just leaves our last pup from the litter of 11, Sienna.

Sienna’s a female, 10-11 weeks old, we’ve been told her mum was a staffy cross and she’s likely going to grow to be a small to medium sized dog.

She’s registered, microchipped, had her first two lots of vaccinations and is up to date on her flea and worming, and is currently being fostered in Huntly. Her foster home has other dogs and cats, and she goes to work with her foster mum everyday so she’s a well socialized little pup.

Some info from Sienna’s foster mum-

She's fearless and brave, she'll face off with a Cat as she will a 30kg dog 😅
She's quiet, unless she wants something or needs to toilet.
She's crate trained and knows 'Sit', we're working on 'Lie down' and she will come when called.
She's happy to sit on your lap, as she is to hoon around with something in her mouth.
She loves playing in cardboard boxes too!

If you’d like to meet Sienna then send me a message. Please like and share her post so we can find her home asap ♥️

17/06/2023

Leo 🦁

Leo is still looking for his family.

The cute puppies we’ve had through the rescue seem to have taken away the attention from our adult dogs like Leo and Chase.
When I took Leo from the pound I thought he would be snapped up straight away, anyone who spends a little bit of time with him fall in love pretty quickly.
Not only is he beautiful on the outside, he has a beautiful nature and personality to match 🥰

Leo’s a mixbreed and 1.5 years old.
He’s registered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, up to date on flea and worming and desexed.
He’s ready to go🤞🏻

If you’re interested in meeting Leo then send me a message.
He’s currently being fostered with a family in Papamoa 🌊

Please like and share his posts and let’s find him his home asap ♥️

15/06/2023

Chico 💛

Our handsome boy is still looking for his forever family.

Chico came into the rescue as one of the most nervous pups I’ve met, but his foster family have done amazing work with him and he has grown so much in the last 3-4 weeks.
He’s learning the world isn’t as scary as he first thought and is improving daily with his training.
His foster family live in Hamilton and have older kids, two dogs and a cat.

Chico is a 4-5 months old Labrador cross, he’s registered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and he’ll be desexed when he’s a little bit older.
He’ll likely grow to be a large dog.

We are looking for a home where he wouldn’t be left on his own for long periods, so somewhere with another dog, or with an owner that is home more often than not would be ideal.

We didn’t want Chico to leave too early but we feel he is ready now, so if you’re interested in meeting him then send me a message ♥️

Lilly has found her forever family 🥳

After spending most of her short life in the pound and then in foster care, Lilly has finally found her family and will begin her new life up in Auckland 🙌🏻

Thank you to everyone who liked and shared her posts, and a big thank you to her foster family ♥️
