💔 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗟𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴? 💔Lucy has been with us the longest of all our foster dogs, and we can’t understand why. At 8 years young, this retired hunting girl has so much love left to give — she’s affectionate, playful, and just wants a family to call her own.She’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. She’s toilet-trained, crate-trained, well-mannered, and her tail never stops wagging when she’s around her people.She’s suitable for homes with stock, but not small animals. She’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. 💕If you’re ready to give this sweet girl the forever she deserves, please get in touch today — Lucy deserves her happily ever after.📍 Fostered in Palmerston North ✅ desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea & worm treated, and registered.𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗟𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/rwdnz-foster-dog-lucy-palmerston-north/

Full of energy and eager to please, she’s so affectionate it was hard to get a photo without her cuddling up. Shes a striking black and tan huntaway with a sleek short coat.Grace is currently a working dog but her owner says she isnt his best.She isnt suitable for a home where shed be expected to work cattle . Thats not a good fit for her, as she can lose focus with cattle but would be much better suited as a pet on a lifestyle block or in a active family home environment?https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/grace-masterton/

At 4 years old Carlos has a long life of pet and outdoors adventures ahead of him.

📌Blue has found his retirement home💓🐾𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐁𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐲🐾Blue is an 11 year old Heading dog who is being retired from day to day farming as he has slowed right down. He is seeking a new home where he can live out the rest of his days relaxing and enjoying his slower pace. He has been a very loyal friend and a hard worker. Blue was a well known dog in the dog trialing community. He is very friendly and kind with a beautiful soft nature so someone with a softer hand would really suit Blue. He loves a good pat but doesnt ask for much. Blue deserves a nice retirement on a lifestyle block.

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. He’s stolen the hearts of every staff member at the clinic, and it’s clear to all of us that he’s something special. He’s easy to love, full of gentle tail wags, curious eyes, and a soft nature that’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.

📌Des has found a new home💓𝐃𝐞𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠!!🤣😂🐾Gentle giant Des has decided not to listen out on the farm anymore, hes only bringing in half the mob! No, he does not have any hearing issues but at 10 years old it seems he has decided he just wants a loving retirement home after a fun life being a farm dog and that its now time for him to rest up in the sun and not have to chase stock.Des still has lots of energy and love left to give. He would be great on a lifestyle block or a home where he can still occasionally be used in the sheep yards as thats what he does best.𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐚 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨 :https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/des-culverden/📌

Hey, I’m Chop! Word on the street is the awesome supporters of RWDNZ helped patch up my ticker 💖—and now it’s running on full zoomie power. I’m feeling amazing and ready to give my heart away… just as long as you’ve got snacks.When I first came into care, my heart was a little bit broken—literally. Thanks to some amazing humans who believed in me, looked after me, and helped me heal, I’m now ready to find my forever home. I’m about 10 months old, a happy, bouncy Huntaway boy who loves adventures, car rides, the beach, and making new friends. I’m great with most dogs, can live with confident cats, and I’m learning my manners every day.I’ve still got a mild heart murmur, but it doesn’t slow me down one bit—I’ve got too much life to live and love to give!Now I just need my special someone to give me a home filled with cuddles, walks, and fun. Could that be you? Find out more about me here on the website and apply, Id love to meet you: https://retiredworkingdogs.org.nz/dogs-for-adoption/chop-dannevirke/

💔 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗟𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴? 💔

Lucy has been with us the longest of all our foster dogs, and we can’t understand why. At 8 years young, this retired hunting girl has so much love left to give — she’s affectionate, playful, and just wants a family to call her own.

She’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. She’s toilet-trained, crate-trained, well-mannered, and her tail never stops wagging when she’s around her people.

She’s suitable for homes with stock, but not small animals. She’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. 💕

If you’re ready to give this sweet girl the forever she deserves, please get in touch today — Lucy deserves her happily ever after.

📍 Fostered in Palmerston North
✅ desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea & worm treated, and registered.
