missing wee fluffy white dog, after attack by two alsatians
Last night my daughter and I spent a couple of hours driving round the burwood , lower shirley area and the bottle lake plantation looking for MEE MEE or mimi. Shes just a small girl about halfway between a medium sized dog and a tiny one.
Her mums been out looking everywhere. She could be all the way between nth beach and Shirley and may be injured. Please check your gardens or empty sections.
As a dog lover this distresses us. We saw her but she was gone by the time we got there, probably hiding.

Cyclists forced to use ‘more dangerous’ crossing if cycleway closed
Closing a Christchurch cycleway to avoid an unsafe rail crossing will lead cyclists across an even “more dangerous” crossing, cycling advocates say.
Transport Minister Simeon Brown has weighed in on the issue, calling the move to shut a 1.5km section of the Heathcote Expressway for up to two years, “illogical”. He has asked KiwiRail to explain.
KiwiRail is demanding Christchurch City Council close part of the expressway until $6.5 million worth of safety improvements can be made to the Scruttons Rd rail crossing.
It said the “unsafe” crossing posed the risk of death or serious injury once every thousand years.
