Toffee is a sweet-natured five-month-old mastiff cross.

Whangarei SPCA always has lots of animals in need of new homes. Our Tip of the Week feature includes details of one SPCA animal up for adoption, and an SPCA tip for animal care.

Toffee

Toffee is a five-month-old, mastiff cross who has been desexed.

She is a sweet-natured young dog with lovely basic manners and is looking for a quieter home with someone who will continue her training.

Her tip: If you have an outside dog it needs to have access to a warm, well-ventilated and cosy shelter and can get away from the rain, wind and cold.
