At 8 years young, this retired hunting girl has so much love left to give โ€” sheโ€™s affectionate, playful, and just wants a family to call her own.Sheโ€™s a real people-lover, adores other dogs, and has even had support from a trainer to help her be her very best self. Lucy would thrive in a home with another canine buddy to play with and older children to love on. Sheโ€™s toilet-trained, crate-trained, well-mannered, and her tail never stops wagging when sheโ€™s around her people.Sheโ€™s suitable for homes with stock, but not small animals. Sheโ€™ll happily fit into a family who wants adventures, cuddles, and endless loyalty from their four-legged friend.Lucy has been overlooked time and time again, and we would love her to finally find her forever home. ๐Ÿ’•If youโ€™re ready to give this sweet girl the forever she deserves, please get in touch today โ€” Lucy deserves her happily ever after.๐Ÿ“ Fostered in Palmerston North โœ… desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea & worm treated, and registered.๐—™๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—Ÿ๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐˜† ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ: https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/rwdnz-foster-dog-lucy-palmerston-north/

This face! ๐Ÿ˜This potential! ๐ŸพThis litter of three male and two females pups are just over two months old. Happy, affectionate and clever pups, they are just about ready for their new homes. Because they are being cared for by our friends at @WhakataneSPCA they will be de-sexed and this is included in an adoption fee.Find out more: https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/beardie-x-pups-whakatane/

Puppy cuteness for your Friday - and a plea for help.Dear wee Fog was found injured injured in central Otago, possibly having fallen from a moving vehicle. The kindness of a passerby got him to Vetlife Alexandra, who diagnosed a fractured femur. Dunedin Dog Rescue has provided $1000, and weve underwritten the approximately $3000 still needed to meet Fogs costs.Luckily for Fog, surgery was successful and hes well on the mend.Vet team member Kaila says that despite everything, Fog has been nothing but sweet, calm, and trusting. Heโ€™s stolen the hearts of every staff member at the clinic, and itโ€™s clear to all of us that heโ€™s something special. Heโ€™s easy to love, full of gentle tail wags, curious eyes, and a soft nature thatโ€™s hard to walk away from.Can you help us fund Fogs surgery: https://buy.stripe.com/3cs5loeT16S9eoU28b or direct via internet banking to: The Retired Working Dogs NZ Charitable Trust 03-0725-0001027-000.

Foster dogs looking for homes (North Island)

by phil | posted in: News | 0
Brick-in foster in Levin-Brick is a 2 year old male neutered heading dog. He didn’t make the cut as a working dog, but he is incredibly well trained and obedient. Brick would love to go to a home with other playful dogs, he has a beautiful nature and is very loveable. Will make a fantastic family member for an active family.
Jasper-Ohakune-3 year old male neutered collie. He is very little and cute, knows a few tricks and is verey obedient. This boy needs a job and has already been started for agility. Jasper has vitiligo (hair loses pigment) which is why he looks like a reverse panda. We think this makes him even cuter!For more information, please call Tania on 027 634 8456
Boy-Feilding-Approx 11 year old male heading dog. Will be available soon for adoption. This lovely older boy is more interested in being a couch potato than a working dog! Great nature, well mannered and obedient, good with stock and other dogs. Ready for an easy retirement but still loves to play.

We have a variety of wonderful dogs looking for their forever homes. All of these dogs are located in the lower-mid North Island, property checks and adoption fees apply.
Please contact us if you are interested in knowing more about one of our lovely dogs.

Lucy has been with us the longest of all our foster dogs, and we canโ€™t understand why. At 8 years young, this retired hunting girl has so much love left to give โ€” sheโ€™s affectionate, playful, and just wants a family to call her own.

Sheโ€™s a real people-lover, adores other dogs, and has even had support from a trainer to help her be her very best self. Lucy would thrive in a home with another canine buddy to play with and older children to love on. Sheโ€™s toilet-trained, crate-trained, well-mannered, and her tail never stops wagging when sheโ€™s around her people.

Sheโ€™s suitable for homes with stock, but not small animals. Sheโ€™ll happily fit into a family who wants adventures, cuddles, and endless loyalty from their four-legged friend.

Lucy has been overlooked time and time again, and we would love her to finally find her forever home. ๐Ÿ’•

If youโ€™re ready to give this sweet girl the forever she deserves, please get in touch today โ€” Lucy deserves her happily ever after.

๐Ÿ“ Fostered in Palmerston North
โœ… desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea & worm treated, and registered.

This face! ๐Ÿ˜This potential! ๐Ÿพ
This litter of three male and two females pups are just over two months old. Happy, affectionate and clever pups, they are just about ready for their new homes. Because they are being cared for by our friends at @WhakataneSPCA they will be de-sexed and this is included in an adoption fee.
