Clara
(You ready Boots)
6 years old
Not cat trainable
Ready for adoption
HamiltonClara has been with us a while and would really love a home of her own. Timid and shy until she gets to know you, Clara needs a home with a garden for playtime, experienced owners who will exude confidence for her and ideally a relaxed, confident male greyhound to help show her that life is great. Once settled, Clara will show you her playful side and even snuggle on the couch for TV time. Being in foster with teenagers Clara has got used to some hustle and bustle but can take it or leave it! Clara is a gorgeous girl if you give her a chance to show you.

Ollie
(Suffice)
4.5 year
Not cat trainable
Ready for adoption
AucklandOllie is a fun, smart and happy boy. He loves to travel and is great on his walks or adventures. A quick learner, he is a real giver. Great with children, although as he is a big boy, those over 8 would be best. He loves nothing more than to smooch and groom session. Ollie sustained a race day injury but he is in great health and nothing stops him loving life. Ollie can live as an only hound or with a compatible female.

Sawyer
(Key Figure)
3.5 year old
Not cat trainable
Currently in foster
Auckland
Sawyer is such a happy boy. His tail wags even when he's having a nail trim! He loves his walks and is good on lead and social with other dogs. Having fractured a hock and been through the RTR programme crazy zoomies and ball throwing activities are not what Sawyer needs but he'd still love a garden to explore and walks to take in all that life brings. Sawyer can live with other compatible dogs. Sawyer will be ready for adoption soon. -

Annabelle
(Go Anna)
4.5 year old
Not cat trainable
Currently in foster
Auckland
Our little Annabelle is a shy girl who will take a little time to warm up to new people and become comfortable in new environments but once she does, she is very cuddly and will show you her playful side, particularly when she's in the garden. Follow her progress as she familiarises herself with all that pet life brings! -

Garth
(Opawa Garth)
3 year old
Not cat trainable
Rehoming kennels
Cambridge
We are looking for a special home for our very special boy Garth. Garth had pancreatitis 2 months ago, and almost didn’t make it, but fought like a champ that we know he is! He has recovered now and is a happy healthy friendly affectionate guy. For him to stay this way he needs a low fat diet and healthy treats. Garth can be a bit needy so would love someone to be with him most of the time or have the company of another dog. He is fine with other breeds after a polite meeting. He loves going for a walk and being involved in anything you are doing. -

Buster
(Bill Buster)
4 year old
Not cat trainable
Ready for adoption
South Island
Buster is a gentle, softer-natured boy looking for a calm and understanding forever home.He can be a little unsure around new people and in unfamiliar environments, and will look to his person for reassurance. With a bit of patience and a steady routine, he continues to grow in confidence and enjoys exploring at his own pace.
Buster is quite curious about the world and does best in quieter settings. If he becomes overwhelmed, once home he will seek out his crate to decompress, showing lovely self-awareness.
With a little patience, Buster is the kind of dog who will truly reward his person — forming a special bond and offering quiet, genuine affection.
He would really benefit from living with another calm, confident dog who can help show him the ropes.
Buster is best suited to a quiet household where he can continue to build confidence with gentle guidance and structure.
He is not suitable for a home with cats. -
