  • Pup surrendered to vet clinic

      10 February 2026
    Main image

    Monday PM: 13 week old pup brought into a vet clinic late this afternoon, very unwell. Vet got in touch to see if we could help her. Owners surrendered.

    On her x-rays, one side of her chest showed as all white (it should show as black).

    Transferred to after-hours vet by a volunteer.

    They are doing bloods now. 💗 Be ok wee one x

    Tuesday AM:

    From volunteer Megan - "Just collected her from After-hours. She’s doing well. Infectious pneumonia they think, it should be treatable, but she’s so small and obviously been fighting awhile. But it is good news!"

    ❤️ This is better than we expected! Go wee pup! Being transferred to the other vet clinic. Pup is in Christchurch.

    If anyone is able to contribute towards her vet bills, we'd be very grateful, thank you!

    From being able to help the injured dogs surrendered to vet clinics & requiring urgent surgeries, to the numerous dentals, xrays, community spay/neuters, to the ongoing care of our lifelong stayers - seniors, ongoing medical dogs, behavioural dogs and of course the day to day care of our other rescued foster dogs awaiting adoption - you've been a major part of ensuring that these dogs get the chance and the treasured lives that they all deserve. Thank you!

    💗 Pictured is True (now Hebe), stood on by cow in June, recovered from surgery and now adopted to a fabulous home. 🥰

  • Surrendered to Vet Clinic - help needed

      18 December 2025
    Main image

    🎗 Putting our feelers out to see if we can help this sweet girl. Her nature sounds beaut - it would be great to give her a chance. We have not met her. Information we have been given:

    Nyx is a 5 year old Staffy/Labrador cross. She has been surrendered to a vet clinic.

    Located Alexandra

    Feedback -

    Nyx has such a kind temperament and was giving us so many cuddles despite her being uncomfortable. She is great around kids and young children and has been well socialized with other dogs. She is a gorgeous girl.

    She has severe pododermatitis and a severe ear infection. Long term, she will need to continuously to be on some type of anti-itch medication, including a hydrolyzed diet to prevent this from happening again. She hasn’t lived with a cat, but she is good with ones that she knows. I have seen her with other dogs in clinic and she gives them a sniff and continues doing her own thing.

    👉 Can anyone please help us with foster care / medical care financial support. Please message us asap. Thank you.

    🤍 These 2 poppets came into our care about 3 weeks ago. They've had time to settle in and adjust. The wee one on the right has recovered from a nasty infected cut on her leg and is feeling so much better. She will be groomed under sedation.

    As with the majority of small dogs that come into our care, they both have advanced dental disease. Quotes are at least $600+ each, plus bloods.

    We need help in raising funds for this. If you wish to contribute (every dollar counts!), it would be so appreciated.

  • Help Needed

      8 May 2025
    Main image

    Just under 5 years ago a young Beardie called Rae was needing somewhere to go urgently. She'd been on a farm and had been passed around a bit. She was said to be aggressive. We wanted to help and needed to get her into our care.

    A couple with Beardie experience kindly offered to foster her - this was the lifeline she so desperately needed. With time, proper care and handling this gorgeous girl (now called Ginny) came out of her shell and started to settle and thrive. Ginny found her forever home with her foster carers.

    Latest update:

    "Ginny is an amazing family member. Rehabilitated from being very fearful around people to now being such a loveable dog who is great with kids. Running and exercise has been a big part of her mental rehabilitation.

    Very sadly last week she suffered a cruciate ligament rupture..."

    Ginny's carers are devastated and after exhausting all other options, have reached out to us for help. Ginny needs surgery.

    We have been given an estimate of $2,800 to $3,100 for this.

    Together as a team we want to make this happen. (Please no judgements.)

    Any amount of donation is really appreciated. Thank you.... very much.

    She has a fractured forelimb that needs surgical repair with a plate. This carries a good prognosis. Costs for treatment up to $2500 (surgery, meds and follow up care/xrays).

    Finley, 15 week old Huntaway x Husky was surrendered to us yesterday after unforeseen circumstances meant he was not suited to the home he was given to.

    He is so much happier and comfortable! It's a joy to watch him play with toys and do a wee zoomie. He loves going for walks and snoozing on the couch.

    3 weeks ago Trev had a partial seizure.He hasn't had any since. We have decided it's in his best interests for him to stay in his foster home where he is settled and happy. We will cover his food and any medical needs. We wish we could offer many more dogs like Trev the chance of a treasured retirement.

      18 August 2024

    2 broken canines and a root were extracted. He has arthritis in his Carpi and hips. We will get him started on 4CYTE. He started on pain relief from day one in our care (after his first vet check).

    Every retired working dog (and often the failed working dogs) that has come into our care has arrived painful. They are also fantastic natured and adjust to being inside dogs so well. It's very rewarding to see them thrive and be as comfortable as possible. We wish we could help more of them.

    Thank you to Trev's foster Mum for giving him the best of care. ✨️

    Beautiful sweet natured Blue came into our care weighing 15.9kg. Vets put her body condition score at a 1 out of 9. She ate Royal Canin 4800 and gained about 500 grams per day until reaching a healthier weight of 25.3kg. Vets think she will gain a little bit more muscle mass and probably settle around 26kg.

      10 June 2023
    Main image

    👉 The 4 day old Huntaway pups are now 16 days old and they are thriving! 6 girls, 3 boys.

    We need help with supplies!

    Estimate for 9 pups is:

    6kg milk powder per week ($58 for 5kg)

    36 cans starter mousse per week ($50 for a 12 pack)

    Puppy pads

    Baby wipes

    Large breed dry Puppy food

    Plus for our Dunedin foster carer:

    * Easy washable blankets

    * Puppy play pen

    * Plastic pet bed

    https://givealittle.co.nz/org/pound-paws-rescue

    Registered Charity CC60695

    ✨️ Thank you!

    👉 The pups were rescued from a farm. They were going to be killed. We believe this is common practice by many. It's so avoidable. * Did you know that it is legal to "dispose" of pups by shooting them?

    PLEASE break the cycle that is being passed down from generations.

    SPAY & NEUTER.

    Once fully recovered from the operation, your dog will be ready to work again, without the inconvenience of unwanted pregnancies. Makes sense eh!

    While they are at the vet - they can also receive a health check. We receive many ex working dogs that arrive very painful with arthritis and require dental extractions (broken, infected, rotten, pulp exposed).

    🩷 A huge THANK YOU to the foster families (Dunedin, Waimate, Timaru) that have simply been amazing. We are so grateful for you.

  • Adoption Update

      15 May 2023
    Main image

    🩷 This is so special. 🥳 Blue came to PPR as an old boy from a farm with a large lump on his leg. Such a beautiful natured soul. All fixed up and adopted to an amazing home and here is his latest update:

    "Well Blue marked his 4th anniversary with us which we also celebrated as his 15th birthday (there or there abouts based on his approx age when we adopted him). Can't believe how far he's come and how much he still loves life even if he's a lot slower and more tired! He still makes an effort on short walks to say hi to other dogs and give everything a good old sniff. He adores his meals and treats and bones (even if it's more of an effort than before!), but I think what keeps him going is his daily snuggles with us on the couch and the nights we let him sleep beside us in bed ❤️ He's just the most wonderful little soul and I know you'll be so happy knowing he's made it this long living his best life! And knowing Blue, he'll be aiming for another year!"

    Freddie was just 6 weeks old when he needed an urgent inguinal hernia operation. ✨️Thankyou to the vet team that reached out to us, to the foster family that cared for him and to you all that so kindly and quickly donated to save Freddie.

    Freddie has been adopted and is enjoying being a treasured family member:

    "Freddie has settled in so well to our family. Such a social and friendly wee pup. He loves to be outside and adventuring in the garden and going for rides in the cars. He’s very affectionate and enjoys cuddles and pats. We are very grateful to PPR for allowing us to have this gorgeous boy." 🐾

    🩷 UPDATE from the Vets: Surgery went well. He's had a little to eat and is now having a sleep.

    Thanks heaps to everyone that contributed towards his surgery. If there is any over the amount needed, this will go towards our other special needs dogs. Really appreciated.

  • URGENT SURGERY

      28 March 2023
    Main image

    A vet clinic has just reached out for help for a beautiful little 6 week old male pup that was facing euthanasia (duck tolling retriever / beagle / spoodle mix) that has an inguinal hernia and requires urgent surgery - updated: estimated cost $700 to $1,000.

    We have said yes please do the surgery. One of the vet team will foster him for us, once ready, he will go up for adoption. (We are not taking any interest for adoption at the moment).

  • Retired Working Dog - 10 year old Pete

      4 March 2023
    Main image

    Thank you so much for your donations! The money raised so far has paid for Pete's vet bill! He needed treatment for a ruptured ear drum, a grass seed removed from the other ear, xrays, bloods, urine tests, a rotten tooth extracted (a Molar with roots intact - a big job to extract). He is going really well and will soon be up for adoption, seeking a loving retirement home. :)
