Arya is searching for a forever home that will appreciate her calm and loyal heart.

At first, her serious eyes might make her seem reserved, but beneath that look is the kindest spirit — a dog who loves running through fields, chasing a ball, or relaxing in the sunshine.
She won’t usually ask for cuddles, but she secretly adores them. Scratch her under the chin or on her belly, and you’ll see her melt with happiness.

These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.
