Poppy the pound dog set to make her debut
The compliance team’s resident pooch is being groomed for stardom in the Taupō District – with the energetic pup to become the district’s first dedicated education dog.
Poppy, a Hungarian vizsla/heading dog cross, was brought to the pound by a hunting dog breeder who did not need her but wanted her in safe hands. Instead of adopting her out, the compliance team decided to keep the little bundle of energy with a view to turning her into an education dog. She has just turned one, and has plenty more training to undergo before she is taken to preschools, schools and community groups for her future work.
Poundkeeper Craig O’Leary said Poppy was a happy, energetic and curious young dog who was a delightful addition to the team.
“Her natural herding ability means she is always trying to get the cat to do what she wants,” he laughed.
