Meet some of the adorable adoptables available at Auckland’s main animal shelters.
Zang
Breed: Mastiff X Lab
Age: 2 months
Gender: Male
Shelter: Manukau
Meet me: I’m an easy-natured pup who loves to play – tug of war and soft toys are my favourites. I also love to get as many cuddles and kisses as possible!
What about you? I need stay at home paw-rents as I’m still too young to be left on my own. You’ll be patient and love to snuggle.
Echo
Breed: Labrador X
Age: 4 months
Gender: Female
Shelter: Henderson
Meet me: I’m a shy girl but very friendly. I love food and people – it’s hard to choose which one I prefer more. I’ll need slow and positive training as the world is a bit scary for me right now.
What about you? You’ll have plenty of experience and as I need an owner who can help build my confidence. Your patience will win my heart and loyalty.
Zepher
Breed: Huntaway X
Age: 6 months
Gender: Male
Shelter: Silverdale
Meet me: I’m a playful pup who loves to please and am very attentive when it comes to food. I’m learning basic commands and am really starting to get the hang of them but will need some extra love.
What about you? You’ll be a family with older children who know what makes doggos tick. If you have a confident cat and are willing to give me some extra training, then come and find me.
Rajah
Breed: Lab X Cattle
Age: 10 months
Gender: Male
Shelter: Manukau
Meet me: I’m an adventurous young fella who loves to play and be active. I’m very good with dogs of all sizes and already know my basic commands!
What about you? You’ll be an active home with a family that is looking for a good boy to curl up at your feet after an adventure-filled day.
