Sponsor a Mobility Pup and transform a life
These pups will help give a disabled New Zealander life changing loyalty. The puppy you sponsor will become an extra set of hands, and a best friend too, and from as little as $7 a week, or $30 a month, you can make a big impact in someone’s life.
Your sponsorship will provide the training and care they need to become a life-changing companion. Be part of their story and watch them grow!
Meet a future life-changer! 🐾 One of these pups will soon begin their training as a Sponsor Puppy, and you can be part of their journey! Sign up today to support their growth into a Mobility Dog. 💚
We’ll update you with names and genders as we know them and around May 5 they’ll be making their way to their new home!
Nico is an older puppy. 🐾 She was born on 22 June 2024 and is a bright and loving wee girl. She has been working hard on her training, mastering commands like tug, nudge, and place while also learning how to bring comfort and support to those around her. She’s full of enthusiasm, always eager to learn, and has a special talent for knowing when someone needs a cuddle. 🐶✨ With your support, Nico can continue her journey to becoming a life-changing Mobility Dog. Sponsor her today and be part of something truly special! 💚🐾

How your support helps
- *1 in 6 New Zealanders live with the impact of disability every day. Mobility Dogs provide vital support, easing the challenges for both individuals and their loved ones.
- Your support will help train more Mobility Dogs to give greater independence, and life changing loyalty to disabled New Zealanders.
- Every year we have a growing number of people asking us to support them with a Mobility Dog and it is challenging for us to keep up with demand.
- Mobility Dogs make a life-changing difference to disabled people helping with practical tasks such as picking up dropped items, retrieve or carry items, or opening and closing doors and drawers.
- A partnership with a Mobility Dog also offers emotional support, companionship and unconditional love. They also help to reduce loneliness and improve confidence, enabling many people to take on new challenges and experiences.
