Meet Ally 🥰
Born right here in our centre, beautiful Ally has now spent 226 days waiting for her forever home. As a young kitten, Ally became very unwell during her first few months of life, but with care,treatment and love shes recovered.Ally has shown incredible strength and resilience

We honestly can't understand why she hasn't been adopted yet. Ally is the sweetest girl who simply wants to be adored. She loves cuddles, pats, and spending time with her people, and despite growing up in the shelter, she still has that playful, kitten-like personality but also loves just chilling and being a couch potato aswell

Ally is ready to find a family who will shower her with the love and attention she craves. Could that be you? ❤️🐾Please give this gorgeous girl the forever home she so desperately deserves !
*below is pictures from her first week old a couple months old and the last picture is her now 🥰

📣 Puppies Before Profit – Bring in Breeder Laws! 📣

Today, we’re launching our Puppies Before Profit campaign, to raise awareness around New Zealand’s lack of dog breeding legislation and to build support for law reforms.

Currently, we’re FAR behind other countries when it comes to dog breeding laws. In New Zealand:

🐾 Anyone can breed and sell puppies
🐾 There are no restrictions on the number of breeding dogs a person can keep
🐾 There are no minimum supervision levels
🐾 There are no minimum or maximum ages for breeding
🐾 There are no maximum number of litters across a dog’s lifetime
🐾 There are no restrictions on close inbreeding.

Despite the current lack of specific rules, our recently commissioned survey found that 96% of New Zealanders think dog breeding should be regulated.

This isn’t a niche animal welfare issue. It’s something that New Zealanders deeply care about. We need clear, enforceable standards that apply to all breeders, and ensure every breeding dog receives appropriate care ❤️

Dog owners! Do you need advice on trimming your pet's nails? 🐕️ We know it can sometimes be a daunting task, and many dogs (and owners!) are nervous when it comes to getting this done.

We've created a helpful guide explaining how to know if your dog's nails need trimming, important things to be aware of, and when to seek veterinary advice ❤️ Understanding the anatomy of the dog's nail is crucial in ensuring you can do this safely (avoiding the inner 'quick'), while keeping your dog happy and healthy.

Check out the detailed guide on our website, and please share this to help other dog owners in the community: https://www.spca.nz/advice-and-welfare/article/trimming-your-dogs-nails
