📍 Lower Kaimai
🎂 5-ish years old
🚹 Male
🧬 Blue Heeler

Well hello there! I’m Bandit, a handsome Blue Heeler with a big heart, a clever brain and a serious love of tennis balls. 🎾

I’m a real people doggo as I absolutely love my humans. I’ve been fantastic with my family’s almost four year old kiddo and I get along well with other dogs too. I’ve even got a Huntaway sister and we get on just fine!

Since moving in with my current family back in July, I’ve been working on myself. I arrived a little on the chunky side and didn’t quite have all my manners sorted. But look at me now! I’ve got myself into great shape, my recall is fantastic and I’ve learnt all the important things like sitting, waiting patiently for my kai and generally being a pretty good boy.

Now, I do have one little confession… I’m a Heeler through and through! I’ve got strong herding instincts and I really do need a job. Unfortunately, my current family has sheep on their little property and apparently I’m not supposed to round them up whenever I feel like it. Honestly, I thought I was just being helpful! 😂

The truth is, I need somewhere I can put my clever brain and working instincts to good use. An active home that understands my breed, keeps me busy and gives me plenty of things to do would be just perfect.

A few more things about me:
🐾 Great with kids.
🐾 Good with other dogs.
🐾 Cats are an unknown as I haven’t lived with any.
🐾 Great recall and lovely manners.
🐾 Love, love, LOVE playing fetch.
🐾 Tennis balls are my absolute favourite. Sticks and pine cones? No thanks!

The grown-up stuff:
I’m not desexed yet but this will be arranged. My microchip status is currently unknown but I’ll be microchipped and my vaccinations will be started before finding my new home. I’m flea and worm treated.

My current family has put a lot of love and effort into helping me become the healthy, well-mannered boy I am today. I’m a really lovely little guy and they’re just wanting to find me somewhere that can give me the lifestyle I need.

So, if you’re looking for a loyal best mate, a fetch champion and a clever boy who’ll keep you on your toes, I reckon we could be a pretty good match!

Lots of love,
Bandit 💙🎾

Please note: all of these pups have adoption trials lined up, so please do not message about adoption. This is purely a transport request. Thank you. 🤩

I’m looking for a transport volunteer who can help move a litter of SEVEN puppies from Paeroa to Tauranga today (Wednesday).

🐶 The puppies are ten weeks old, so you’ll need a decent amount of space in your vehicle. Potentially two crates will be needed to transport them safely.

🚗 Pickup: Paeroa
📍 Destination: Tauranga
⏰ Pickup time: Approximately 2pm today.

I can provide the crates. You just need a vehicle with enough room and a little bit of time to help these gorgeous babies on their way.

Please reach out ASAP if you can help.

Puppy cuddles absolutely guaranteed! ❤️🐶

Another Livvy’s Pals pup smashing it at training! 👏🏽
Goooo Piper!

💗 PIPER 💗 BORDER COLLIE X 💗 11 MONTHS 💗

Team Piper is a consistent attendee of our training Thursdays, and we definitely want to give them a shout out for all their hard work! Abigail, Hosea, Moses and John all work together to help Piper be the best puppy she can be! We asked Abigail some questions to get some insight into their training with us.

🐾 We come to practice training around other dogs, and also just get her out and about. It's good for her, but it's also really good for us, because we learn a lot, not just from Sarah and Marcy, Renee and Letisha, but from all the other people and their dogs, they get to sniff each other, and play together. Even when I think she's having a bad day, they point out things that she's doing well, and they're like, “Oh, Piper did so great with that.” It’s so nice to hear and it's very encouraging 'cause she's a lot, and she's energetic, and very busy!

🐾 She is so young but she comes to everything, and I’m proud of how much she's been learning, she's so clever, and so getting to do, like, the trick workshops, and she's just so smart, and seeing her brain work it's really, it’s really cool. I'm really proud of her.

💗 Piper has now achieved her Silver Trick award, and her bronze recognition. She is so much and has such an enthusiasm for life. She's an honest joy and we are so lucky to be able to train with her and her amazing humans 💗
