💙 Some dogs are simply impossible not to fall in love with... Sulla is one of them. 🐾

Sulla has the most beautiful soul. He's the kind of dog who greets each day with a wagging tail, a happy heart, and an eagerness to be wherever his people are.

He's fun-loving, affectionate, and full of life, but beneath all that enthusiasm is a gentle, loyal boy who just wants to belong. Watching him grow in foster care has been so rewarding, and now all that's missing is a family to call his own.

Sulla deserves a home where he'll be included in everyday life, where adventures are shared, cuddles are plentiful, and his people will treasure him for the incredible dog he is. We know whoever adopts him won't just be gaining a dog—they'll be gaining a best friend.

If your heart has room for a loyal companion who will love you with everything he has, please take a look at Sulla. We have no doubt he'll make someone's world a happier place. ❤️

📍 Fostered in Hastings.

✨ Some dogs leave a mark on your heart... Awa is one of them. ❤️🐾

Beautiful inside and out, Awa is the kind of girl who quietly works her way into your heart without even trying. She has the sweetest nature, gentle eyes, and so much love to give to the people lucky enough to earn her trust.

She's the perfect mix of affectionate, loyal, and fun, and watching her blossom has been an absolute privilege. All Awa wants is a family to call her own—a place where she's loved, included, and can finally settle into the life she deserves.

We know her perfect home is out there. The one where she'll be cherished for the incredible dog she is and where she'll spend the rest of her days making her people smile.

If you've been waiting for that special dog who will become your very best friend, please take a look at Awa. We truly can't wait to see her find the forever family she's been waiting for. 💕

📍 Fostered in Waiouru.
