Welcome home to CBBR T-Bone ❤️🥩

A recent arrival from a North Canterbury pound, T-Bone is a cruisey, sweet natured, playful boy who somehow found himself abandoned rurally & then unclaimed at the pound.

He has a fair amount of beef to pack on so is currently living it up in one of our foster homes, gaining condition & lapping up all the love & attention.

Our 2026 calendar theme is CBBR families with multiple adoptees 🐾 Akela was adopted in 2017, followed by Buddy in 2018 & Onyx in 2019. Two’s company – three’s a family!

Buddy, Onyx & Akelas mum did our June write up 😍

Buddy, (previously Kevin) came to the CBBR from Invercargill pound. He was around 4-6 years old. I was volunteering, walking at the rescue and absolutely fell in love with him. I just knew he would fit in well with our other two at home. As soon as he was home, he just became exactly what his name was. Our beautiful sweet Buddy boy. As his body slowed, he never stopped his short zoomie bursts and had his favourite snuggle spot on each couch. Sadly Buddy crossed the rainbow bridge November 2025 at 13 years old. Much loved and missed boy 🌈 ❤️

Akela, came to us as a foster pup when she was around 3 months old. She was surrendered to the vets with a broken back leg. She was with us through her surgery and recovery. Once she was ready for adoption, we just couldn't let her go, she had made herself well at home with us as our foster fail. Now almost 10 years old she is most definitely the princess of the family. Absolutely obsessively needy and just loves love.

Onyx, now 7 was a young pup surrendered to the rescue with his sister. He came to join our family in 2019 and has been the biggest character from the start. The big baby and smooch of the family. I think he forgets his size and will try his luck on anyone's lap. You'll usually find him walking around with his favourite bowl or toy like a pacifier. He's definitely a special boy.

Thank you to Lee Waddell Photography for the lovely photo of this sweet trio 😍

Today was supposed to be D-Day! 🤯

The question we’ve been asked over & over …. have we found somewhere??

No we haven’t. But thankfully our new landlord saw our struggle & has given us another 3 months in Barton St.

We are still on the hunt! It’s still urgent.
We’ve had lots of people make contact but unfortunately nothing has panned out yet. They’ve been either too expensive, too far away, too close to residential neighbours.

I am still confident the universe will work its magic & the perfect place will fall into our laps. So real estate people - keep us in mind please!!

In the meantime we are trying to stay positive & keep trucking along. If you can spare a few $ to help us keep running we would greatly appreciate it.

Puppies !!!

We currently have some beautiful pups available for adoption through the rescue. They range in ages and temperaments, from 3 to 6 months old.

Gemini, Lexi, Baxter, Ruby and Max have all been fostered in homes, working hard on crate and toilet training. Most have been fostered with other dogs, children and even cats.

All our puppies need adopters who understand the love and commitment that a baby requires. In return you will get non stop puppy cuddles and never a dull moment. If you can provide a loving home for life, fill in an adoption application today.
