Cheryl O'Connor from Paraparaumu is the proud mum of Maddie.
Attached is a photo of my sweet dog Maddie, an 8 year old Norwich Terrier. Maddie came into my life about 15 months ago to heal my heart after I lost my JRT called Pippa four months previously. She settled in immediately and is my joy in life. Loves her walks, her treats and cuddles on my lap. She’s just perfect in every way.
Remember if you want your pet featured on Neighbourly, email us on yourpet@dompost.co.nz with a recent photo. Please remember to say which suburb you live in.

I am a great dog who loves to have cuddles, I love to have humans around me. Due to my young age I would be better for me to go to a home that has no young children. I can be a little shy with new people and then I am a bouncy bean. I would be fine for me to go to a home with teenagers.
So far I had a little bit of training, I am a bit uncoordinated and jumpy. With training, we both need to start from scratch. I am very willing to learn. You will see me blossom from an uncoordinated boy to a very well trained dog that will stick by your side. I need to be introduced to the world slowly as it can be a little overwhelmingly for me. I am great with other dogs at the centre and love to play. A home with a slightly older dog would mix well with me, so they can show me the ropes on how to be the best dog. If you are a ready for a new man in your life, please click on my profile and my heart could be yours forever."

Meet Carlos, a male mixed breed who is 14 months old.

"Hi there, my name is Carlos or Mister Wiggle as they like to call me here at the SPCA. I am a bouncy dude that would love a home that loves larger-than-life personalities. I would love to go to a home where my owner is prepared to continue my basic training as I had none prior to SPCA. I am needing a routine where I am not left for more than 4 hours at a time, this is just to begin with, until I am more settled into my new home. I am wary to begin with, with strangers but with a suitable home I will be coming out of my shell in no time, like I have at the SPCA Teenagers or adults would be a good fit for me. I could go to a home with another dog, one that is social, loves a good play and happy to show me the ropes. I can be a bit enthusiastic when meeting other dogs so the dog would need to be patient with me. I may be able to live with a confident cat."
