Meet Sky! This lovely 9-year-old Huntaway girl is ready to hang up her working boots and enjoy the retirement she deserves! She is based in Dargaville.

Sky is a laid-back, affectionate girl who loves pats, sunshine and spending time with her people. She's great with dogs of all sizes, good around stock and used to children. She's looking for a loving home where she can enjoy a slower pace of life and soak up all the attention.

Sky has plenty of love left to give. Could you be the one to give this sweet girl her happy retirement? 🐾

Beautiful Poppy is a 4 year old Huntaway, located in Te Kuiti.

Poppy is a happy, affectionate little girl with a big personality and an even bigger love for people. Full of energy and enthusiasm. She loves being involved in whatever is happening around her and is especially fond of following children around and joining in with family activities.

While she originally came from a working home, she has had very little work over the past two years and is now much more accustomed to life as a companion. When around stock, she is happy to follow other dogs and understands the environment, but she would need a very gentle and patient handler if she were to return to any type of working role. Her future home does not need to be a working one, and she is likely to be happiest as an active family companion who can enjoy plenty of exercise, adventure, and involvement in daily life.

If you are interested, have any questions or think you can provide Poppy with the life she deserves please reach out to the owner directly using the contact details provided via the link below:
