Posting on behalf of - not in our care.

Information we have been given:

"Stella is very sweet and full of energy. She’s a 17 month old Kelpie cross, spayed, fully vaccinated, chipped. Located Timaru.

Looking for an active home that can give her lots of time and space to play, provide lots of fun outings and mental enrichment. Also having patience and calm handling to train her more. She knows how to sit, come, fetch, wait to eat.

Stella is timid at first when meeting new people. Needs to be given time to come to you, when she is ready. Once she gets to know you, she is the most loving dog who enjoys late night cuddles and plenty of treats, including fruit and vegetables (especially carrots). Stella always gets super excited when you come home from work or a simple outing. She’s also very used to both farm and residential activities/noises. She doesn’t chase after chickens, sheep or birds but will run away from cattle.

Stella plays well with other dogs, although can get jealous if you're playing with another dog, she’s gentle with children but doesn’t quite get along with cats (lived with cats previously but needed further training to learn to leave them alone/respect their cues when she wanted to play).

Stella loves her long walks, occasionally stopping to sniff, she isn’t bothered by animals or people walking past her as she more interested in carrying on the walk. House trained and sleeps inside. Requires 6ft fencing/gates.

Overall, Stella is a loving dog who will form a forever bond with the right person."

If interested, please message us about your home and why you think Stella may be a good match for you. We have an application form, property visit and vet history check to carry out.

❣️ Adopted! Precious Annie xx 😍

After months in our care, Annie has found a wonderful forever home, I'm so happy for her. They will ensure that all of her needs are met, including managing her hip dysplasia.

"Annie has settled into our lives so quickly that it’s hard to remember what life was like before her -  and it’s only been a matter of weeks! She is the sweetest girl, and we genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better dog. We love her funny little personality. She has learned so much so quickly and has brought an incredible amount of joy into our home. It’s not just us who have fallen in love with her either - our wider family has loved being part of her journey and watching her become part of our family. We’re so grateful to have Annie in our lives and honestly can’t imagine life without her now." ❤️

❣️ Thank you for adopting! Happy trails! 🐾 👣
