This week we feature Poe.

“Hi there, my name is Poe and I am a great pup looking for my forever home. I have not had the best start to life so would love a home that understands my quirks and is keen to help me through them. A home that has the patience and time to help me be the best companion I know I can be. I am super social so I could go a home with another playful dog that loves having a good tumble. I am not suited to a home with young children so would love a home with teenagers who are keen to teach me new things and take me on adventures. Puppy school is something I am looking forward to doing with my new family, especially learning things and making new friends. I do come with a medical waiver that my new home would need to be aware of. If you think you are the home for me please contact the canine team for more information.”

My Dog Barney

Susan from Kilbirnie

Hi I am adopting a lovely rescue dog called Barney. He is a mid-sized to big dog. He is part Whippet and maybe some kind of cattle dog. He loves people, animals and children (but forgets his size so I don't recommend he be around really young children, as he could bump one over.). I am … View moreHi I am adopting a lovely rescue dog called Barney. He is a mid-sized to big dog. He is part Whippet and maybe some kind of cattle dog. He loves people, animals and children (but forgets his size so I don't recommend he be around really young children, as he could bump one over.). I am looking for somebody who would like to have him around one day a week, when I have a long day at work. After his morning run he mainly snoozes but likes the odd cuddle. He is lovely company but does not like being left alone. He is a really smart dog and a quick learner but is still being trained. He is really nice company.

Because of current COVID-19 restrictions, we’ve had to make the tough call to cancel our Vinnies Annual Street Appeal. This doesn’t stop the challenges our communities are facing and the increasing amount of support services being accessed at our Newtown Hub.

Times are tough at the moment. We need your help to meet the increasing demand for Vinnies Welfare Services, ensuring kiwis have access to the support they need when they need it.

If in a position to do so, please consider donating to the Vinnies Annual Appeal. Every dollar will help keep our services open and accessible to the community.
