Dogwatch is full!
The Christchurch Pound is VERY busy - they have LOTS of dogs in. We are unable to rescue all of the re-homeable dogs
from the pound due to the extremely high demand for our kennel space.
If you are looking for a dog and can offer a loving responsible home - please visit the pound!
Metro Place, Bromley, Monday - Friday 1pm - 5.30pm, Saturday 11am - 1pm. Phone 9417 048.

Dogwatch - A sanctuary for abandoned pound dogs.
Set on 4 acres of picturesque grounds comprising of 8 spacious kennels with heated
concrete pads, 7 large exercise yards, 3 acres for dogs to run freely on twice a day
and a team of dedicated
volunteers to attend to all of their needs.
Where do our dogs come from?
On the 8th day at the pound, the council becomes the legal owner of any unclaimed
dogs. They then have the right to destroy these dogs, but, if the staff at the pound
decide that a dog should be rehomed, they contact Dogwatch to see if we have a space
available.
We then go to the pound, pay the registration and chipping fee and return with the
rescued dog(s) to our sanctuary.
We take over the legal ownership of these dogs and they are cared for by volunteers
at our purpose built Adoption Centre until they find a loving and responsible home.
When a dog is adopted, more dogs are waiting at the pound for a chance to fill that
kennel space.
Dogwatch is a Charitable Trust (registration number CC30434) which is fully self-funded
and relies on donations, grants and legacies.
Funds are also raised from the
Second Hand Variety Shop
in New Brighton.
