    Greetings from the MK9R team.

    2020 has been a very busy year so far.

    We are looking to expand nationwide this year and next which is going to involve purchasing more equipment specifically microchip scanners, uniforms and in the field equipment.

    Most of our cost are travel expenses as we are traveling to locations all around the Wellington region and beyond.

    None of our volunteers are paid for any time in the field, time spent online and on the phone comforting and supporting owners in their time of need and we do all this because we love dogs and want to see all dogs lost, missing or stolen reunited with their families.

    We have spent tireless hours since our conception in the field on physically challenging searches and we are proud to be a unique organization here for all dog owners in the Wellington region and beyond.

    We are looking foward to the next 12 months in recruiting response teams nationwide to help bring more dogs home.

    We are also expanding into K9 advocacy especially when it come to dog fighting rings, animal testing and ill treatment of dogs.

    Thank you so much to all supporters without your continued financial support none of this would me possible.

      I have had 2 dogs stolen by a West Auckland gang and recovered them both times after exhaustive searches, paying for information and offers of rewards (which I did not pay). I know the anguish people suffer when their dog is stolen. Second only to losing a child. One has to go to extraordinary lengths to recover a stolen dog.

      Happy to donate to the cause.
