Adopt Teddy

Teddy

UPDATE: Teddy has found her litter! 
Thanks to our Facebook post (and all 115,000 of you who saw it!), Teddy has been adopted by a local rescue agency along with the rest of her litter! We're thrilled to see her snuggled up with her siblings, safe and loved.

Thank everyone who shared and sent love Teddy's way.

Meet Teddy

Do you have a little extra love to give this winter? Meet Teddy. Our four-week-old bundle of joy looking for her forever home! Teddy is a female Terrier/American Staffordshire cross, and she’s got cuddles for days, endless energy, and lots of love to give to her new whānau.

We occasionally have dogs that can be adopted.  If you are interested in providing these dogs with their forever home, complete the expression of interest form.

Cost

Cost will be confirmed at the time of adoption.

Expression of interest form

Completing this form registers your interest for:

  • a dog currently up for adoption
  • when we have a suitable dog available.
