📣 Puppies Before Profit – Bring in Breeder Laws! 📣

Today, we’re launching our Puppies Before Profit campaign, to raise awareness around New Zealand’s lack of dog breeding legislation and to build support for law reforms.

Currently, we’re FAR behind other countries when it comes to dog breeding laws. In New Zealand:

🐾 Anyone can breed and sell puppies
🐾 There are no restrictions on the number of breeding dogs a person can keep
🐾 There are no minimum supervision levels
🐾 There are no minimum or maximum ages for breeding
🐾 There are no maximum number of litters across a dog’s lifetime
🐾 There are no restrictions on close inbreeding.

Despite the current lack of specific rules, our recently commissioned survey found that 96% of New Zealanders think dog breeding should be regulated.

This isn’t a niche animal welfare issue. It’s something that New Zealanders deeply care about. We need clear, enforceable standards that apply to all breeders, and ensure every breeding dog receives appropriate care ❤️

Enzo is tired of waiting 😞💔

This sweet boy is a long-stay at our Whangārei Centre, and he has been waiting to be chosen for almost a year. We're worried that he's giving up hope of ever finding a home.

"Enzo is a lovable, people-oriented dog who thrives on company," says the team. "He enjoys cuddles, companionship, and just wants to be part of a family.

"He's already started his training and is doing so well - he is extremely clever," they say. "He needs a family who can continue building on what he's learned, so an experienced dog owner would fit him best to continue his training."

Enzo is a playful, affectionate sweetheart who has been overlooked for far too long. Can you be the one to give him a chance, and end his long wait? 🙏 Meet him on our site: https://www.spca.nz/adopt/animal/642824/dog-enzo-whangarei

If you have any questions about Enzo, please reach out to our Whangārei team directly on 09 438 9161.
