Meet Savvy

Breed: Husky X Staffy

Barking from: Wellington

What's up dog?

Our beloved Savvy is the best family dog, she has shown an incredible gentleness, patience, and a natural affinity for bonding with our children and family. Her nurturing presence makes her a strong candidate for this recognition, reflecting her role as a cherished sibling figure in our family's life. Savvy is exactly what a family dog should be.

Particularly heartwarming is the bond between our son and Savvy, who are just 5 months apart in age. They've grown up together, sharing playful moments and forming a unique friendship that enriches our family every day. The joy and love they bring to each other daily is something from a movie.

I am applying Savvy for top dog NZ as she is the perfect example of a family dog. The love and joy she brings each day is unmatched.
