Attention all Animal Lovers - Woofstock on Sunday 17th
This weekend history is being made with the first annual event for your dog "WOOFSTOCK" on the 17th Feb. Registration starts 9am -10.30am at Milford Reserve. Share in the love between humans and dogs at the iconic WOOFSTOCK festival. As part of the festival, we will be having a "Charity Auction" of music memorabilia from some of the world’s most iconic Legends of Rock and Roll.
All Profits raised from the live auction items will go towards helping another six charities who are involved with our Pet Rescue and Food Bank programs.Animal Re-homing Charitable Trust. Ruakaka Dog Rescue Bridge Bully Rescue Auckland Puppy Rescue Saving Hope Foundation Mangawhai Dog Rescue
Money raised will be used for easing the burden of outstanding veterinary bills for these charities, ranging from treatment of injuries or bad health through to desexing of rescued animals. These charities will be present at WOOFSTOCK showcasing animals in need of a loving home.
We are kicking things off with the Brazilian Divas Entertainment followed by a live performance by TIKI TAANE and a chance to win some cool prizes.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
