Kids got to play with our catchment model to learn about sediment, streams, gullies and wetlands. We did trapping demonstrations and swapped weeds from gardens with gorgeous native plants! 🌱

Hello, Neighbourly friends! My name is Champ. I am a sweet boy that loves to play and enjoys cuddles. I have made friends with everyone here at the SPCA and would love to settle into my forever home.
WHAT'S SPECIAL ABOUT ME
I listen well. I know my name and have an understanding of basic training, I feel I can be trained further with the right owner. I am very eager to please.

I love cuddles and the presence of people and dogs. Although, I can feel insecure in new situations and in unfamiliar places. Once I experience more of the world, I will become more confident. I wouldn't mind having another dog to play with and don't seem to be bothered by cats, I mostly want to say hi and try and play! Because I can be unsure in certain situations, it is best that I live with older children, teens or adults that are experienced with handling and playing with dogs.

Of course, I am one of a kind! I have a slightly abnormal hindlimb conformation which is likely due to genetics. This doesn't cause me any issues, however is something a new owner needs to be aware of as it may mean I don't live as long as most other dogs.

Any serious adopter is encouraged to discuss this with one of the vet team to fully understand my medical history. Any new home would be lucky to have me, I do hope people don't overlook me because of this. If you think that you're the right home for me, contact the canine team!

Fun-n-gala time! Are you keen to plant natives?

Visit our stall at the Pauatahanui School Lamb & Calf Day on Saturday 7 November and we will swap your weed with a lovely native plant. We will have specimens of pest animals that are threatening our native species and will provide trapping demonstrations. Loads of fun for the kids! We will have a catchment model at our stall to play with to learn about sediment, streams, gullies and wetlands.

Find out how you can improve the health of our waterways in the Pauatahanui area and inlet. Your efforts can boost biodiversity and reduce sediment levels in our streams through erosion control and planting. Staff will be available to offer advice and help find out if your property could get funding assistance. See you there.
