Awww Bruce 🫶
12-year-old Bruce has retired from his life as a sheep dog and is now looking forward to the comforts of a soft bed, good company, and plenty of cuddles. He’s a sweet, friendly boy with an easy-going nature - affectionate yet independent, calm, and absolutely trouble-free.

He’s great with other dogs and cats, and while he hasn't been tested with children or chickens, his laid-back temperament suggests he’d likely be fine.

Bruce is located in Te Kauwhata

🐾 If you’re looking for a loyal companion to share quiet moments and couch cuddles, Bruce would love to meet you 🐾

Contact his owner retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/bruce-te-kauwhata/

A big thank you to everyone who donated to our Throw Us a Bone campaign in December. With your generosity we raised $4,090, which we’re incredibly grateful for - this can allow us to support many more dogs into foster with RWD.

Thanks especially to Norsewear and Wool.Life for donating the raffle prizes and helping make the campaign a success.

The raffle winner was Christine and her rescue dog Bob, who took home a pair of Norsewear socks and a dog bed from Wool.Life (made in NZ from recycled wool socks). Bob, who’s lost one eye, is already enjoying his very comfy new bed - complete with his name embroidered on it.

Thanks again to everyone who supported the campaign. Your help means a more successful 2026 supporting our dogs!
