"I was taken to SPCA by a kind person who noticed I had an injury needing treatment. I've been putting on weight and getting healthy, and am now ready to go home!
I'm a handsome, goofy, gentle giant who is loving and eager to please. I've been learning to walk nicely on a lead while at SPCA and am very responsive to treats and human affection. While I enjoy a walk, I'm also happy just to have a cuddle, and Netflix and chill.
I've made a few canine girlfriends at the centre, and mix best with larger girls who are happy to play and don't mind some barking. I am not suitable for a home with cats or small animals at this stage. I would be happy to live with teenage kids."

Let's take a moment to celebrate what we have in Aotearoa New Zealand: a peaceful, safe and largely prosperous nation where indigenous Maori culture can be celebrated, and the benefits that each culture that is newer to this land - English, Asian, Pacifica and so on - have brought to this country can be acknowledged. As Fred Dagg used to sing, "we don't know how lucky we are".
