All adoption applications are handled directly by SPCA New Zealand. Contact them to arrange a meet-and-greet and start the adoption process.
Meet Gretel! 🐾 She is available for pre-adoption. Gretel is a ball of energy who loves to explore her surroundings. She loves to get right into things and is very confident in her skin. Gretel will thrive in an environment where she can go out and explore, while also providing her with the guidance, structure, and ongoing training she needs to become a well mannered dog. We would suggest enrolling her into puppy school, which can help her learn social skills, and develop good manners. Gretel is looking for a committed home that can keep up with her adventurous spirit while providing patience, consistent training, and boundary setting. She is ready to embrace all the fun in the world with the right person 🐕.
