Merry Xmas from little Zip living his best life in Australia now🎄

Never give up hope trying to help dogs in need as they have no voices - we need to be there voices 🐾

Please do right if you see wrong doings .. if you are too concerned about calling the spca or police to step in , feel free to call me and pass on the info as I will gladly not turn a blind eye and call them! 🐾

Zip was a life chained dog severely emaciated and neglected with mange fleas and sores on his body with 20 other dogs on the property of which I was able to help free. I will always be a dogs voice - please don’t turn a blind eye 🙏🏼🐾

Please ring in any address to the SPCA that you know of where dogs are chained up .. it is now against the law to teether dogs in a manner where it’s prolonged , puppies , bi***es carrying pups etc- where dogs are constantly stressed and barking !! .. have a read of this below! I’m so sick of seeing dogs chained up - they were built to run around..
if you can’t exercise your dog properly you don’t deserve one

New regulations for dog tethering will come into effect from 25 September - we've answered the most common questions to help New Zealanders understand what's changing.

Mama was successfully rehomed this wk so I’m extensively grateful for the likes and shares you all gave in helping me to rehome her.. I can’t thankyou all enough🙏🏼!

Now’s it’s Roscoes turn once again! I’ve not had one person come to meet him yet ? .. watch this space as he begins a new journey with us.. I’ve some extremely exciting news I’m about to make very shortly for the community of Tepuke and the dogs in need! It starts with Roscoe and I’m going to be pushing him out there to show what a star he actually is very soon.

He is such a sweet boy with a loving attitude and will
Only go to the best home .. I can’t wait to share what’s ahead for him and many more dogs in our community.
Rosco was life caged living in his own faeces and urine- and starved , he requires a home with someone willing to give him daily exercise and mental stimulation with a fenced section and nothing but love .. contact me if you’re interested in meeting him. He will go with a lifetime of free training via Mandy Wood Dog Training/Groomer and bedding. He is desexed vaccinated and wormed .. he is the sweetest dog - I promise you that! He doesn’t bark instead he wants nothing other than to play .. please share this Butiful boys face so we can find him the home he deserves 🙏🏼🐾🤎Roscoe🤎🐾

Mama has now had her second vaccination and has been spayed and ready for her fureva home .

A huge thanks to Brett and his amazing team at Beach Road Vet Clinic for vaccinating all the puppies and spaying Mama .. they are all now doing exceedingly well🙏🏼

I would like to ask if there are any registered charities with food on hand or anyone out in the community that may be able to donate any dry food as I’m very low on dry food. I have another 11 dogs in our community that require food urgently, 8 of them are heartbreakingly emaciated.

Irie Wattie thankyou kindly for your amazing donation- i have this afternoon picked up from the warehouse - giving hugest of thanks 🙏🏼🐾❤️

Hi everyone , i had a huge drop of unwanted frozen food dropped a couple of days ago, a heap of which i have given out to a number of dogs in the community that are very undernourished along with the remaining biscuits i had on hand.
Have also cooked a heap of it up for a number of other dogs.

I’m now almost out of dog biscuits so if anyone has any on hand they no longer require I would be so grateful to take off your hands. With Christmas coming up a lot of animals are forgotten about and go hungry so I would love to have more on hand so as I can help those families who are in need . The dogs shouldn’t have to go without and I see so many in such bad states is terribly disheartening especially at this time of year.

🐾I require cat food wet or dry as I have a number of cats I feed.

🐾And i also have a litter of 8 pups requiring puppy food out here with there mum- am waiting on photos

If you are able to help please msg me or you may drop off to MJs grooming supplies here in Te Puke nxt to addiction pet foods . Giving huge thanks for your ongoing support

🐾Now taking bookings for this class ..any age size or breed welcome .
If you have a highly reactive dog please let me know in advance as a one on one would be better suited before a class training in some cases .

Once you’ve been throu my classes after a one on one you are welcome back at no extra charge for the entirety of the dogs life🐾

For those that struggle or wish to pick my brain , i give extra time at the end of the class so as to help you succeed🐾
