Big thanks to Masterpet New Zealand for their generous donation of food and collars for our Lower North Island rescue dogs. We did try to get all nine dogs in the photo, but they were just having too much fun to fully co-operate.
Awesome well done, and thanks Masterpet NZ, we rescues go thru a lot of collars and leads.
Will make a point of purchasing a masterpet product next time I'm at the shops. Happy to spend my dollar to supportive companies
A very big thank you to Leda and Camille from Follow the Leda and Free Range Dogs for organising the Valentines Day Charity Dog Walk that took place yesterday. They have also been fostering and training our deaf pup Minnie, along with Cassie from Cassie's Canines, for which we are very grateful, you've all done an amazing job and Minnie went off to her new home today!
So, our love bug Danny went along to the Valentine's Walk and had a great time as you can see in the pics, the smile never left his face 😍 It was a great turn out and a lovely day out, thanks to everyone who came along to support us. And, the last I heard, $280 had been raised and still counting! Thank yoooou! 😃
Danny, 10 month old male Staffy x Pointer. Soft sweet nature, loves attention, great with other dogs, available for adoption Auckland area.

Please keep your eyes out for Izzy who has gone missing from Pt Chev, Auckland 😟**Izzy has been found **
Please help us find Izzy , she has been missing from our home in PT Chev since this morning. She is an 8 year old golden Labrador with a very gentle nature , she is small for her age and is sometimes mistaken for a puppy.
She has never wandered from our property before so we are really worried for her safely. She is chipped and has a pink colour with name and number. Please contact me if you have any information at all. Jackie Allan 0210628525
Introducing the very handsome Scooby Doo.
Scooby is a 1.5 -2 year old ridgeback x that would like to be everyone's best friend but doesn't know his own size. This clumsy giant loves nothing more than sitting on your knee on the couch and sleeping in bed with his head on your chest. Scooby has been waiting months at Nicole Doriguzzi's foster home in Wellington with no real interest in him and is desperate to find his forever home.
Because Scooby bowls everything in his path over when he plays he would not be suited to a home with children. He is very strong on a leash and is learning not to pull so would need a strong owner.
Scooby knows sit, handshake and is toilet trained but needs to go to a home where someone will be dedicated to his training. He is not good with cats. He loves other dogs his size but is better behaved without dogs to rark him up.
Excellent fencing and gates are needed. As with all ARAN dogs, Scooby must sleep indoors and be allowed inside with his family. He must never be kept chained up.
Scooby is de-sexed, vaccinated, and microchipped and has had flea/worm treatments . There is an adoption donation of $200.00 to help towards these costs.
To fill in an online adoption application please visit: form.jotform.co/aranrescuenz/questionnaire
Nicole Doriguzzi has lots of other dogs at her home in Upper Hutt which are also up for adoption. These include a 9 year old cavoodle, 5 year old lab x mastiff, 6 month old shy huntaway pup, and more

We have this little girl in the Waikato region who needs a foster or a foster to adopt family. She’s around a year old, so still very puppy like. She will need someone who is at home for at least part of the day, because it’s likely she’s going to need some house and other basic training. We’ve been told she’s great with people and other dogs, and we have no way of testing with cats or chickens right now sorry.
If you would like to apply for her please complete our pre-adoption questionnaire below, and put her name down as Bulldog x - name suggestions are welcomed too 😄

Cooper's foster mum says "please get this pup adopted quickly, before we get too attached to him", Cooper is about 7 months of age and is a mixed breed pup who will be medium to large sized when fully grown.
As you can see he is extremely photogenic with gorgeous ears that make him just that much more adorable.
Cooper has adapted really well to living at his foster home, even though it was clear that he hadn't been inside before. He is quick to learn, eager to please, loves people (and comfy beds) and is great with other dogs.
He will need a family where someone is at home for at least part of the day as he will need to continue his toilet training and his socialisation. He’s going to be best suited to a family with older children.
Cooper is being fostered in West Auckland. If you would like to apply to meet him, please complete our pre-adoption questionnaire below 🙂

This is Frankie, and her family have found themselves homeless 🙁 Her mum has asked if we could post her up on the page to see if someone could either foster her for a few weeks until they can try and find some alternative accommodation, or to find her a permanent home.
The ARAN Rescue team have not met her.
She is 2 years old, desexed, good with kids and gets on well with older dogs (we don't know about cats). She is located in Hamilton.
If you could help with Frankie please send us an email at aran.rescue.nz@gmail.com
I get so angry when ppl find it almost impossible to rent with a pet. To many ppl, pets are part of the family, indeed sometimes their ONLY family. How sad that because of a few bad owners, it's so much harder for the responsible ones to find a home. Children can do far more damage than a dog. I have always had at least 1 dog & altho not renting, when ever we have sold not one person even knew we had a dog. Wiped down dog each day with a wipe, picked up poo every day. A good owner wld do this and more to secure a place, surely maybe bit extra bond and agreeing to shampoo carpet plus reseed and fix any holes dug is fair. I wld rent to pet owners any day
Fingers crossed someone out there can help this family out. Come on landlords family's need home's that are pet friendly.
Yeah aye...a...beauty spelled with an a after the e, and before the u...emotions run high with furry things, grammar just rolls out the window...
It’s not the dogs it’s the humans and their laziness to not clean. She is a beuty hope she finds a home
What's her breed

Hope everything works out. Best wishes P.Lee

I have seen more damage that kids do why on earth dont landlords allow dogs
This handsome young man is Cooper. Hes approximately 7 months of age and will be a medium to large sized dog. He is currently in the pound and really needs a fosterer, or a foster to adopt family asap - preferably in Auckland, as his pound buddy Bear will be making the trip north, so he could catch a ride. He will need a family who can spend some time training him, but hes a fast learner and has already learnt to sit for his food in the pound. Good fencing, and someone at home for at least part of the day will also be a requirement please. He is friendly with other dogs and people, but untested with cats. If you are interested in helping us help Cooper, please email aran.rescue.nz@gmail.com Thanks 🙂
He’s a good looking boy
Edward Hayes-Woods it’s a yellow Mo!
Hope you get someone to help or a loving, indoor, forever home soon Cooper. Best wishes P.Lee

Barry now has a few options - thank you!!
Is there anyone that could offer the gorgeous Barry a forever home? He is waiting in the Waipa pound and he needs to find his family soon. Can you all please share to give him his second chance? Thank you so much 🙂UPDATE: Thank you everyone who has shared, commented and offered help for our main man Barry. We've been overwhelmed by all the offers of support we've received for him. We're pleased to say that Barry now has some options open to him now, which we are working through at the moment. If you have offered help and are waiting to hear from us, please be patient with us, we will get back to you. We'll update further once we have a definite plan 🙂
And still Barry waits... He's the only one left now... All his friends have either found their hoomans or headed off to a foster home to wait... He doesn't quite understand why no one wants him too, he's been a very good boy, done his best butt wiggles and smiley face, but it hasn't worked yet...
Have you got room for Barry in your life?
If you think you may be able to foster or would like to adopt Barry, please get in touch through our website (link in comments). Lets find Barry his hoomans and show him that people care for the Poundie kids, even if they aren't as pretty...
Please share Barry so we can reach as many people as possible. #findbarryahome #poundielove
Might be able to foster him. We’re in Whanganui
Brya McNicholas Lee-Kayla Harmse butt wiggles! Smiles! ❤️
Shared..Good luck Barry..Beautiful boy.🙏💞🙏...

Hope you get help or a loving, indoor, forever home soon beautiful Barry. best wishes P.Lee
Bongo has been adopted, thank you!
Look at this lovely boy, Bongo. He has been waiting and waiting and waiting for his person to show up and take him home but no-one has chosen him so far 😢 Goodness knows why not as he’s absolutely lovely, he’s a staff favourite at the Henderson Shelter, West Auckland and spends a lot of time helping in the office! He deserves a life in a proper home though so please consider him. Bongo is good with other dogs, fine with confident cats, loves car rides, going to the beach and most of all adores his toys 💕 Bongo is a Cattle Dog x and about ten months old. Please contact the Henderson Shelter on 09 836 7777 if you would like to meet him Thank you

Is the gorgeous Danny in a foster home or at a shelter? ♥️
both Pipi and Bear have been adopted, thank you 🙂💕
Two pups in need! Bear is the little brown guy, could be Mastiff x Ridgeback ( maybe!) he’s a sweetheart, soft and loving and 4 to 5 months old. Pipi is the white and tan pup, she is not going to be very big and is probably a Foxie crossed with something a bit bigger, she’s about 5 months old and has a sweet nature. If you can help either of these pups by offering them a foster home, or if you would like to foster to adopt, please contact us at aran.rescue.nz@gmail.com thank you !
The pups are from different pounds in the central North Island, we can arrange transport to Auckland

FOSTER HOMES needed. ARAN needs some more foster homes, especially in the Wellington and Auckland areas. Also in the western side of the Central North Island for possible emergency short term fosters direct ex-pound.. We have already in the first 3 wks of this year saved ten pound dogs, with more waiting and we need some help to care for their dogs while they wait for their new homes. The majority of foster terms are short and the dogs arrive in foster homes freshly desexed, vaccinated, wormed and deflead. Each dog is tailored to the individual home to make sure as much as we can of a good fit with the family and other animals. Full support is provided in all areas. To be a foster carer you must be experienced with dogs, passionate about helping save unwanted dogs, and have excellent fencing and gates, and either be home some or all of the day, or provide a secure environment with dog company. If you are interested in being added to our new register, please complete the form in the link below. if you have applied before and not heard back, we may have lost your application in a computer glitch, so please do apply again. Thanks!
