Roxy
Over the last four weeks I've settled in really well in my new home and even made friends with the cat....(little does she know that I occasionally do what almost all dogs do - sneak over and sample some moggy food).
I enjoy drives in the car, even if the car is just being cleaned, it's great being part of the action. I recently went with one of my human companions to work on 'take your dog to work day' - bravely rode my first lift and all the fuss and pats were wonderful!
I also enjoy walks around the lake, runs at Tills Lookout and meeting other doggie friends at the dog wash out TeRapa way. Looking forward to dog agility classes at the end of the month...more socialising and girl has to keep trim and good looking. |

Miley
Miley is learning to be a real terrier and going for walks in the rain and having her own basket by the window so she can see what's going on. She's a great hit with her new owners' grandchildren and friends. She has learnt not to jump on the bed or sofa and to toilet outside, she is also learning to 'heel' while out walking - but hasn't quite got the hang of that yet!
Her owner says she has a lovely nature and seems to love life, and thankyou for her new friend.

Mojo
Mojo the pomeranian has settled in well to his new home and is inseparable from the other 2 dogs - Rylee (pomeranian) and Maz (Staffy). They spend their days lazing on mums bed, running around the paddocks chasing balls and snuggling up together on the couch.
His new owners are so pleased that they were able to give Mojo a new home where he will be forever.
(having trouble with the photo - will try and add later!) |

Ruby
Ruby has finally had some luck in her young life, after being adopted and returned twice (through no fault of her own) she has now found a perfect forever home. She has moved to Auckland and is very happy - she goes for lots of walks to exciting places, has made new doggy friends, gets to sleep on the bed, her training is going super and she is very much adored by her new owners.

Rocky and Mozzi
Both of these lucky boys were given a second chance. Rocky (staffy) first and then back they came a few months later and chose Mozzi (foxy) to keep him company. Rocky and Mozzi get along great and enjoy their new lives. |

Manny
Manny is a very high energy dog so loves living on a lifestyle block and doing a whole bunch of cool activities like learning flyball, going for heaps of walks, lots of car rides, long runs beside the bike, and might even be getting trained for sled racing when he is bit older.

Patrick and Tutu (Romeo)

Gypsy
Gypsy the samoyed is very happy with his new home and is now looking very handsome. He was at Animal Control for quite some time before a lovely couple from New Plymouth heard about him through Samoyed Rescue and drove all the way up here just to see him - and then took him back home with them the same day! |

Luna
Luna is happy and doing well in her new home. She loves walks, playing with the kids and is adjusting well. |

Zac Power
I have been re-named Zac Power (from the books). I just get called Zac though, and the kids said that Power can be my middle name. I have a big garden to run around which is neat. The kids think I'm great and play ball with me, take me for walks on my red lead and they like to give me breakfast/dinner in my new bowl.
