Now, Iโ€™m growing into a playful Border Collie X boy with a curious nose, a wagging tail, and a heart that just wants to belong.Every day, I chase my ball until my legs canโ€™t go any faster. I watch the cows and horses with wide eyes, wondering what it would be like to herd them (I bet Iโ€™d be good at it!). When Iโ€™m done exploring, I love nothing more than flopping down at your feet and soaking up all the love I can get.Iโ€™ll be honest โ€“ Iโ€™m still learning. Car rides? Not my favouriteโ€ฆ yet. Chickens and cats? Havenโ€™t met them. But I am really good at sitting, lying down, coming when called, and waiting by the door when I need to go outside. Iโ€™m crate trained, toilet trained, and I adore kids and other dogs.Sometimes, new people or new things make me nervous. But when someone is patient with me, my cheeky side shines through โ€“ and then I canโ€™t wait to be your buddy.๐Ÿ’š ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—œ ๐——๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—บ ๐—ข๐—ณI imagine a home where I can run, play, and maybe have another doggy friend to give me confidence.

Blade is a beautiful gentle soul, a quiet dog that doesnt cause a fuss, who has been working hard all his life and now at 10 years old, deserves a place where he can hang up the working boots and relax. He had a injury from a bull over a year ago that has left him not mobile or fast enough to work stock anymore and needs to fully retire. He does love to go for farm tours or come out and fix a fence. He is a simple cruisy man who just loves a sunny spot and a good old scratch. can come across as stand offish but dont let him fool you, he loves a good pat and a bone.Contact his owner via the link below:https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/blade-wanaka/

Bolt is a medium-sized fun-loving puppy who adores attention and loves playing soccer โ€“ heโ€™ll even have a game by himself!Heโ€™s a 10-month-old huntaway/heading cross. He was vaccinated as a puppy and has had a couple of worm treatments since then. His local (Whanganui) registration is paid for the next 11 months. Once adopted he will come with a lovely kennel, dog food, lead, worming tablets etc.Bolt was born 1/12/24, so his 1st birthday is coming up soon. He is full of energy and would suit a loving home with plenty of room to run around and continue with ongoing training. He is very clever and with the right training could make a great working dog.โœ… Used to childrenโœ… Ok with other dogs (timid, not dominant)โ“Not been tested with cats, chickens or other stockโŒ Not toilet trainedContact his owners via the link below:https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/bolt-whanganui/

๐Ÿ˜ADOPTED ๐Ÿ˜Hello Im Rue! Im a happy 10 month old heading dog on farm in Invercargill but I really dont want to chase stock so its time for me to leave!Im excited for a pet home - actually Im excited about life in general. I would be the perfect addition to a lifestyle block or somewhere where I can use up my energy. Im used to little children and dont care about chickens. I have always been an outside dog but could easily be tempted inside. My farmer says I have a nice nature and will make a great pet.

Beautiful Bayek is a 5 year old huntaway, a farm fail in his early years. He is a very energetic boy and would do well in an active rural lifestyle setting. He loves going to the beach, river and walking adventures. He is a very smart boy who will adapt well with the right training and routine.Bayek has a timid personality at first, but warms up quickly with reassurance, but is very submissive. He has an adaptable personality, making him a great family dog. He is a very happy, friendly, outgoing dog.๐‚๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐š๐œ๐ญ ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง๐ž๐ซ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ž ๐ข๐ง๐Ÿ๐จ ๐ฏ๐ข๐š ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ค ๐›๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ฐ:https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/bayek-christchurch/

Its a pretty easy win to treat your dogs, and support rescue pups at the same time.Every dog has a story. Dougโ€™s was one of resilience, loyalty, and love. Adopted years ago from RWD by vet Vicki, Doug was a scared Huntaway who had a tough start in life. Initially very fearful, he blossomed into an integral part of Vickiโ€™s vet clinic team, earning the nickname โ€œDr Dougโ€ for his gift of calming nervous patients.Doug found his forever home with Vicki and her ultramarathoner husband, Inia. Together, they built Huntaway Run Co. โ€” creating hardworking trail gear for humans and dogs. Their Dog-Go Bites were born from adventures with Doug, and now carry his legacy forward. ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’›In Dougโ€™s memory, Huntaway Run Co. are giving back to RWD. Until 7 September, enjoy 20% off storewide, with proceeds donated to Retired Working Dogs NZ.Grab some of the best shorts in Aotearoa for farming and running, plus Dog-Go Bites for your best mate. Your support honours Doug โ€” and helps give retired working dogs across Aotearoa the care and second chances they deserve.๐Ÿ‘‰ www.huntawayrunco.com

Six months ago, I was just a tiny pup with big paws and even bigger dreams. Now, Iโ€™m growing into a playful Border Collie X boy with a curious nose, a wagging tail, and a heart that just wants to belong.

Every day, I chase my ball until my legs canโ€™t go any faster. I watch the cows and horses with wide eyes, wondering what it would be like to herd them (I bet Iโ€™d be good at it!). When Iโ€™m done exploring, I love nothing more than flopping down at your feet and soaking up all the love I can get.

Iโ€™ll be honest โ€“ Iโ€™m still learning. Car rides? Not my favouriteโ€ฆ yet. Chickens and cats? Havenโ€™t met them. But I am really good at sitting, lying down, coming when called, and waiting by the door when I need to go outside. Iโ€™m crate trained, toilet trained, and I adore kids and other dogs.

Sometimes, new people or new things make me nervous. But when someone is patient with me, my cheeky side shines through โ€“ and then I canโ€™t wait to be your buddy.

๐Ÿ’š ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—œ ๐——๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—บ ๐—ข๐—ณ
I imagine a home where I can run, play, and maybe have another doggy friend to give me confidence. A family whoโ€™s active, loving, and ready to keep teaching me as I grow.

Right now, Iโ€™m being fostered in Whangฤrei, but Iโ€™m ready to travel anywhere in NZ if it means finding my forever people.

If youโ€™re looking for a curious, loyal, and fun-loving pup who just needs a chance to shine, maybe my story can become part of yours. ๐Ÿถโœจ
