UPDATE: Diamond has found a lovely new home!

is a 10 year old female Staffy x (approx 19kg).
Unfortunately Diamonds human has been unwell, and has been moved to full time care. Diamond is currently being looked after by her Aunt (from Australia) but she has to leave Sept 4, and hopes Diamond can find a new home by then.
Diamond is a fabulous sweet girl who loves all species, including cats, dogs, children, farm animals. She has a lot of love to give, especially to her humans.
Diamond really has a slower paced life these days. She enjoys a daily stroll and is fabulous on lead and off. She also likes to play with her ball.
Diamond has no major medical issues. She is prone to dermatitis if fed the wrong food. She does sometimes favour her back leg due to a possible bruised tendon. Her medical history is available from her current vet.
Please let me know if you would like to meet Diamond. She currently lives in Ellerslie.

Taika is a 6 year old male purebred English Staffy. He weighs 16kg and is desexed.

UPDATE: The girls have found a lovely home to retire

Annie (13yrs) and Cici (12.5 yrs) are 2 lovely Female Shih-Tzu’s, who’s elderly humans are moving into aged care. They need a new loving home to retire. Preferably together, but separately is also an option.
These two girls are both small in size. Cici has had only one eye since she was a puppy.
They are both happy, healthy girls who currently enjoy 2 short walks each day, then chilling with their humans. They love tummy rubs and lots of cuddles.
Annie and Cici are both socialized with cats, dogs and kids. They walk well on and off lead.
Both ladies require a groom every 8 weeks. They are both inside dogs, and are used to sleeping in their own beds.
They have had a mixed diet of meat and kibble, and enjoy their treats.
If you would like to know more about Annie & Cici, please email dearhumansnz@gmail.com

Stella is a 7 year, 7 mth old Shepherd cross (large) currently located in Auckland.
She is an active, social, excitable girl who requires at least an hour a day exercise. Stella is a very loyal dog.
Stella is great with kids, she is very excitable around cats.
She is best playing with younger dogs, who she is very social and enthusiastic with. She is great off lead and has great recall.
She will be dominant over other dogs she lives with. She does pull on the lead in excitement until she burns off some energy.
Stella loves fetch, toys, and water balloons. She’s great with commands and can also open doors, so is super smart and trainable.
Stella is a very healthy girl. She had a non cancerous lump removed a while back, but she has a great medical history and good clean teeth. With regards to grooming, she will require a brush once or twice a week.

Game is a female staffy cross (8 years) and Scout is a male blue healer cross (7 years)
These 2 have been outside dogs their whole life. They have not been walked or socialised, so they are dog aggressive due to lack of leadership. They are also not good with cats or any other animals, just humans. (Not tested with children)
Game has eye issues which have not been addressed due to lack of funds for the vet. No medication has been prescribed.
A medical history can be provided from the current vet but it may not be thorough, due to lack of regular checks ups.
Scout doesn’t have any current medical issues that we know about, he is known to bark more than Game.
Game has had 2 litters in the past. Both dogs are now desexed, registered and microchipped.
Both suffer lethargy from not being exercised. They both live on supermarket kibble, or human scraps when given.
Both can walk on lead, they are better when walked individually.
These 2 will suit a fenced lifestyle block where they can self exercise and not bother any other animals.
They need a confident leader who can show them some life skills, both will thrive when they understand rules, boundaries and have regular exercise. They only know basic commands.

Senior Dog Club is very excited to announce….

Molly has found herself a fabulous beach house with a fabulous new Mum, where she gets to retire and be treated like a queen!

Long walks on the beach, skipping in the waves, swimming in the calm, daily meetings with the neighbours dog through the fence, lying in the sun in the garden….this is Molly’s new life! Wishing her happy days, lots of love and sun!

Molly’s new mum was one of the first applicants to adopt a senior dog, through the Senior Dog Club in 2022.
When we were asked to rehome Molly, I knew it would be a perfect match. She was thrilled to receive the invitation to welcome Molly into her home & heart.
