Looking for experienced dog fosterer
Hello Neighbours,
I am looking for anyone who has experience fostering dogs for home-stay. I'm currently looking for housing for myself and my tiny dog Athena, and while I am out there looking I'm in need of a place for her to stay. I'm looking for any one who has experience fostering dogs, or willing to take her in as part of their family while I look for a home for us. Perhaps you already have a dog? Perhaps you have experience with small dogs who love cuddles and running on the beach? If you think you can help me, let me know.
Thanks,
Laura
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
