Clifford
(Go Clifford)
4 years old
Ready for adoption
North IslandThis big handsome boy will be sure to brighten up your day. He's always happy and is an absolute smoocher loving nothing more than a big cuddle. Having been through the RTR programme Clifford is still on lead walks or off lead in a small space at home (so he can't do crazy zooms). He loves to be around you when you are home but is equally good at relaxing once he's had his walk. Clifford can be unsure of new people at times but quickly gets used to those around him. He has been doing great on walks especially with his friends. He would love someone home a lot and another dog to keep him company for the times you are away. He is a big boy and can be bouncy and although he's been learning not to, he will at times. Preferably a home without small children as he does lack spacial awareness! If you spend time to understand Clifford 'the big red dog' you will be blessed with an awesome friend.

Carty
(Cawbourne Carty)
4 years old
Ready for adoption
AucklandIf you want a hound who's happy to see you when you arrive home, can chill out by themselves when alone, who is a super traveller and loves affection and playing with toys then Carty is the man for you. Although he loves life, Carty would do best in a home with some dog experience and without children due to his food motivation and times over exhuberance and no cats please. He would prefer to be an only dog with a single person or couple who have a garden to zoom and relax in and hang out with at home or walk the quiet suburban streets. As long as you let him know the rules he will give you all the love and more.

Clara
(You ready Boots)
5 years old
Ready for adoption
HamiltonA shy girl who would love a hound buddy (or 2) to hold her paw as she learns about pet life. A quiet home with humans who love being at home whether for work or play will be rewarded with a sweet, gentle, loving girl. Clara has taken a few months to relax into a home environment and her confidence is still building but should you open your heart to her she will show you that she has a little sass, a playful side and will smooch too. She would do best in a quiet home with a male greyhound (goofy males are her favourite!) who would be happy to play with her and show her the ropes.

AmieKay
(AmieKay)
4 year old
Currently in foster
Dunedin
Good with all dogs, playful, easy going and a great adventure buddy! Amiekay is relaxed and easy-going, often found flopped on the carpet without a care in the world. But when the mood strikes? That helicopter tail gets going and she’ll greet you with a burst of happy energy! She’s an inquisitive soul who loves to check in on what you’re up to — just in case it involves her. She brings a little sparkle, a lot of heart, and the perfect mix of calm with a dash of cheeky!
