In the next three months, Blind Low Vision NZ, an organisation that trains and provides guide dogs, estimates 40 puppies will need homes.

Joanne from Flat Bush

I have a new build home which has 3.5 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms and looking for a mature person to share my house with. You would have the second floor to yourself which includes your own bathroom. I am located in Flat Bush, East Auckland. Rent/week would be $315 including water, internet and power. (Based on fair usage) I have two cats so must like animals. If you’re interested please send me a message for more details😊
