Pound Paws Rescue works to save dogs/puppies in rural and remote South Island, New Zealand from some of the most desperate situations - unwanted farm dogs, dogs surrendered to Vet clinics for euthanasia, Pound & community dogs.  We are often the last hope for many rural South Island dogs.  We strongly advocate for de-sexing, offering assistance to struggling pet owners. We take in dogs of all ages, many needing expensive veterinary treatment - dental extractions, fracture repairs, heart medication, arthritis treatment, behavioural support, xrays, bloods, special diets etc.  We are a growing, passionate team of fosterers and volunteers who care for, socialise and rehabilitate all the rescued dogs in our own homes (we have no shelter facility) until carefully matched forever homes can be found.  We are totally self-funded and rely on our own fundraising efforts and donations from the public.  We are a registered charity CC60695 

Thank you for your support!
