Adopt a DogWhāngai kurī

Looking to give an orphaned pooch its forever home? Get in touch and we may have just the furry friend for you.

Dogs arrive at our pound for a variety of reasons and are well cared for by our largely volunteer pound staff. We assess the suitability of all impounded dogs for adoption, carrying out health checks, vaccinating and micro-chipping those that need it, and sometimes even de-sexing dogs. After seven days in our care, many impounded dogs are ready for adoption. Could this be you?
