The SPCA Pet of the Day is Gabe from Porirua.
"I am a special dude who has had an unusual start to my rehoming journey. I am completely deaf but that doesn't stop me having a great time!​​ I am a fun, loveable, boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."
