Who Are Chained Dog Rehabilitation & Rehoming?

Chained Dog Rehabilitation & Rehoming are an Auckland dog rescue that work with owners of life-chained, neglected and/or abused dogs to help improve their lives, and provide the tools so they can become responsible dog owners. We are a team of nationwide volunteers who educate and empower these owners to help improve their dogs living conditions.

We also rehabilitate and rehome any dogs relinquished into our care, along with working closely with many Council Animal Shelters across New Zealand.

We believe in helping ANY dog we can, no matter the size, breed or situation.

We are predominantly based in Auckland, however can help nationwide.

Please have a look round our website to find out more about our Auckland dog rescue, our missions, and how you can help those who can't help themselves.

Our Missions

To advocate for and support dogs in our communities to achieve better health and wellbeing for the dogs through:

Empowering dog owners by providing them with the tools necessary to remove the need for dogs to be life-chained, neglected and abused
Acting with integrity, and work alongside any other organisations needed, to provide a unified response to each case
Identifying opportunities to provide rehabilitative care and rehoming to any dogs that are relinquished so they can live a happy, fulfilling life, no matter their size or breed
Providing education and community initiatives centred on reducing the number of unwanted dogs and improving the health of the dogs who need it the most.

No one can do everything, but everyone can do something

"You can't change a dog's past, but you could rewrite his future"
