Dogs, chickens, roosters, geese, sheep, ducks, goats, pigs and a peacock (overnight) have passed through the doors of the Moa Point Dog Shelter – and it’s now getting a well-earned facelift.
The dog shelter, which has been on site for 53 years, is getting an upgrade to its facilities and security systems, including new cages, self-contained kennels, a plumbing refurbishment, and improved security cameras installed.
The upgrades are estimated to cost $120K and be completed by the end of February.

WHAT'S SPECIAL ABOUT ME
My ideal home would be one with a nice backyard, that is big enough for me to explore and potter around in the sun as I love toasting myself on a sunny day. I very much enjoy my daily walks so would love a family that would be keen to go out, explore with me and show me all the wonderful things out there. As I want to keep all the cuddles and tummy rubs for myself I am looking for a home as an only dog. Don't be fooled by my size, I can be cheeky and have jumped fences before, so am needing a home that has high fencing. I could live with older kids that are confident around big boisterous ladies like myself. I do however come with a medical waiver my new home would have to be aware of. So if you think I'm the girl for you please contact the canine team for more information.
