Winter hit hard this year. And so did our vet bills. Since we last posted about our raffle, we've welcomed a wave of new foster dogs. By the time a retired working dog comes through our door, we're often already thousands of dollars deep before they've even met their forever family. That's just what saying yes looks like. We say yes anyway. Every time.

Our winter raffle is how we keep doing that, and the prize pool this year is genuinely worth a look. Amazing local supporters have come through with some incredible donations, so the odds are good and the cause is real.
Here's the extra sweetener: every ticket you buy also goes in the draw to win a cake made by the very talented human behind Flag and Brie. Yes, their mum is a specialist cake maker. Yes, the cakes are as good as these two look cosy.
One ticket. That's all it takes to help us say yes to the next dog that needs us.
If you've ever had a dog find you through RWD, you already know what that yes is worth. If you haven't, this is your chance to be part of the reason someone else does.
Grab a ticket (or a few) here: retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/shop/ ... See MoreSee Less
