irresponsible dog owner

Salima from Goodwood Heights

irresponsible dog owner. my friend saw a young lady running on everglade drive (near the roundabout with Eugenia drive)  with a small dog off leash. she stopped and told the lady the dog needs to be on leash, and as a dog owner, did she not know the rules. the lady said she did not know.  if the dog decided to dash across the road, or saw another dog, anything could happen. instead of restraining the dog or going home to get a  leash, the lady continued her run with the dog running along.  the lady was in her late twenty's, fair, slim and tall.  pacific islander perhaps.  if anyone sees her, she needs to be told to go home with the dog rather than put it at risk.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
