Little Kira is still looking for her forever home, Kira is a 5 Month old Shar Pei cross.

Kira is an active wee girl she loves to get out and about zooming around the paddock.

Kira has spent the last week with our friend Matt, getting to know his clients. We have been told she has been a great ice breaker. The evenings she has spent with Matt and his two dogs, we have been told she has gotten up to some typical puppy mischief. So she will definitely keep you entertained with her antics.
Matt has told us that she will really benefit in a home where they have experience owning dogs.

Kira is a smart cookie, who LOVES her food. This means continued training will be a breeze with her love for food.

Does Kira sound like a match for your home?

Introducing Hayley

Hayley is a 10 Year old American Staffordshire Terrier Cross

Hayley is looking for her retirement home where she will get to spend her days sunbathing, Hayley LOVES a snuggly blankie as you can see by the photos.

She is great with other dogs although we are ideally looking for a home with another placid dog where she wont be jumped all over as she is an older girl.

Hayley has been given a full clean bill of health from our vets, other than needing lose just a couple of kgs. The vets had no other concerns.

Does Hayley sound like a good addition to your home?

✨HULK✨

Hulk is still waiting patiently for his FURever home.
Hulk had a trip with a staff member over to the beach on the weekend and had a blast catching up with his brother.
We can only assume it is his first time ever experiencing the beach.
He was a little unsure of the water at first but quickly built the confidence to go in with us.
He is VERY food motivated so this made it a lot easier, easing him in to this unfamiliar setting.
Hulk walks very politely on lead and knows how to sit. With how food motivated he is, continued training should be a breeze for his new family.

Hulk is a 10 month old Lab x
This is our guess on his appearance however his sister has been DNA tested and we have been informed of her DNA results.

If you like the sound of Hulk and think you could give him the best life possible please reach out to us. You can:

* Message us here on Facebook
* Email us at [email protected]
Please include some information about yourself and the home environment you have to offer :)

Kira
5 Months Old
Shar Pei Cross

Kira is a spritely young girl, looking for her forever home. Kira would love a family who will take her out on adventures and explore our beautiful country.

Kira LOVES her food and sits so pretty while she waits for you to hand her the treat. Continued training should be a breeze with her love for food.

Kira does have spring loaded legs and can be quite jumpy when she is excited, we are working on this but for the mean time we are looking for a home without young children.

Kira is great with other dogs here at the centre, she would do well in a with or without another dog in the home.

**ADOPTED**
Addie
3 Month old Staffy Cross

Meet Addie, an energetic young pup ready to take on the world.

Addie does think she is just a little lap dog and loves climbing up for a cuddle (although her version of a snuggle is rather wiggly 😂)

Addie is a smart girl she knows as soon as food comes out, she must sit and wait patiently. She has started learning the ‘down’ command, although at this stage, it does look more like a yoga pose than anything.

Addie is at a perfect age to add to any family dynamic. She can be taught how to interact appropriately with cats and other animals.

🏹Introducing Rambo🏹

Rambo is a one-year-old male German Shepherd cross
He is a fun and playful boy who loves to play fetch with you for as long as possible. After he's gotten his energy out, Rambo will happily lie down with you and just chill out.

Rambo knows how to sit, stay, and lie down if you have treats with you, which makes it a lot easier, of course.

Rambo is great with other dogs and enjoys getting out for a play with fellow adoption pack members.

Rambo has been tested with our resident pound kitties; they just want to have a little sniff..

**ADOPTED**

Enola
4 Months Old
Labrador Cross

Sweet little Enola is ready and waiting for her forever home.

Enola is a smart wee cookie; she is picking up on some basic commands very quickly.

Despite her uncertainty in new places, her love for people is really encouraging her to come out of her shell and will quietly explore new places with her favorite people.

Enola loves hanging out with her fellow adoption members and is cautious of the resident cats, not quite sure what to make of them just yet.

Oliver
3 Months Old
Collie Cross

Our little happy chappy, Oliver, is looking for a family to call his own.

Oliver is full of personality and s***k, making it hard to take photos because he's constantly doing something hilarious. 😂

Oliver is also a snuggle bug. He loves to crawl onto your lap for a cuddle (even sneaking in a cheeky lick).

Oliver is great with the other dogs here and likes to politely say hi to the resident cats.

Ace has an awesome opportunity with Shaun at Rolly Canine down in Christchurch to get some extra support and learn some new skills.

The catch is we just need to get him there.

A huge thank you to Fundraising for Impounded Dogs - New Zealand for helping us out by sharing his story and rallying to get the needed funds.

We are very appreciative for everyone's help getting Ace ready for a new adventure, if you are able to help we would be forever grateful even if it's just sharing this post 🧡

*** ADOPTED ***

Freida
10 Week Old
Collie Cross

Meet Freida, the newest member to our adoption pack.

Freida is the best mix of crazy and cuddly. As you can tell from her photos, she is FULL of personality.

Freida will make an awesome addition to any family, being a puppy she could be a little full for young ones that aren’t confident with dogs, but this is definitely something that could be worked on in the home.

Freida is young enough to slot into any family dynamic, she can be taught how to appropriately interact with Cats, Dog, Chickens, or any other animals you may have in the home already

Reintroducing Hulk!!

Some of you may remember Hulk who was advertised as a little baby alongside the rest of his Marvel siblings. Hulk first came to us as a little 12-week-old baby and adopted out at just shy of 6 months old.

Now at 9 months old he has found himself back in our care, due to no fault of his own. He is now looking for his forever home. We know it is out there somewhere!

Hulk is a loving boy; he LOVES a cuddle with his favourite people. His next favourite thing is FOOD. He will do all the tricks he knows to get the treat.
He knows ‘sit’ ‘down’ and we are working on ‘roll over’ which he is too eager to learn even in the muddy puddles.

Hulk is great with other dogs and was friendly with our pound cat Pablo. A home with a confident cat would be just fine.

Sully
4 months old
Retriever cross

Sully has spent the last few weeks with our friend Matt, to help with is programme 'Canine Companions: Healing Paws', working with at-risk youth from troubled backgrounds, or neuro diversity or disability. His programme is designed to promote emotional healing, develop social skills, and enhance psychological resilience.

We have been told Sully has been a great ice breaker for Matt with his clients, Sully has joined Matt on bush walks and as well as going into facilities to meet groups of young people.

Sully has come back to our centre a more confident puppy, with new tricks up his sleeve, he knows sit and down, he walks very nicely on a lead and greats new people calmly and respectfully.

Sully will make a great addition to any family, he gets along great with all dogs and was very gentle when meet our resident cat Pablo, giving him little kisses (video in comments)
