Wombat is a dream puppy

News 14 November 2018

Wombat had a cruel start to life when he, his mother and his six siblings were left in a pen to die at the perimeter of a rural property. Fortunately five puppies survived and were rescued.

Regardless of his traumatic beginning, this sweet Collie X Whippet pup has a lovely, easy-going nature and no behavioural issues. Wombat will soon turn 7-months-old and is ready and waiting for a home where he will be taken to training classes and cherished for the rest of his life.

More than anything else Wombat loves cuddles. He also enjoys a variety of walking venues, running on beaches, playing with other dogs and going for trips in the car.

Wombat is neutered, micro-chipped, registered, fully vaccinated and flea & worm treated.

This friendly boy would be a suitable companion for an individual, a couple or a family.

If you would like to apply for Wombat’s adoption please e-mail your expression of interest to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

If you miss out on Wombat, please know that we have several other pups (and adult dogs) waiting for you...

Help ban the public sale of fireworks.

News 09 November 2018

OPPORTUNITY TO SUBMIT ENDS ON 5th DECEMBER 2018

Click on the photo below to ask Government to ban the public sale of fireworks.

Although humans sustain burns, injuries, irritation, sleeplessness, confrontations with neighbours, fear and damage to property; it is animals - both domestic, homeless and wild who most markedly suffer fireworks.

Many animals go missing, sustain injuries and suffer terror in the week preceding Guy Fawkes and for several weeks following it... with another huge influx of fireworks around New Year's Eve and during private celebrations at any time throughout the year (due to the hoarding of fireworks sold in November).

Animal Re-homing would like to see an outright ban on this fear-inducing frivolity. Even one night of public fireworks displays will unnecessarily terrorize the animals within visual and hearing vicinity.

In the absence of a complete fireworks ban, we will welcome a change in law that stops the sale of fireworks to clubs or members of the public.

Stop animals dying in outdoor fires

News 01 November 2018

Please think of the creatures who like to hide among branches and wood piles - before you light outdoor fires.

HAPPY WORLD VEGAN DAY!

News 31 October 2018

To mark and celebrate this compassionate lifestyle, we made 1080 protest signs for the march and rally this weekend.

See you there!

Please join the 1080 protests

News 29 October 2018

PLEASE JOIN THE 1080 PROTESTS - THIS SATURDAY, 3rd November
AUCKLAND, WELLINGTON & CHRISTCHURCH

No creature should die the slow and agonizing death of 1080 poison.

1080 kills insects that birds feed on, it kills non-targeted species (such as farmed animals and birds), and it kills companion animals (such as dogs and cats). It is a dangerous and inhumane method of animal management that must be banned.

New Zealand uses 80% of the world's supply while other nations have prohibited its use.

Join the march from the bottom of Queen St, Auckland at 11am or meet up at the rally at Aotea Square at 12.30pm. Got time? Make a sign!
