โ ๏ธ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. โ ๏ธ
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
๐ The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50ยฐC in less than 15 minutes.
๐ Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
๐ This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
๐ It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you โค๏ธ
The Pลซrฤkau of Tane and the Sacred Kauri - Day 32
In a small Mฤori village nestled beneath the shadow of a great forest, there lived a young man named Tane. He was named after Tฤne Mahuta, the atua of the forest, and like his namesake, he had a deep connection with the ngahere (forest). Tane was admired for his tireless efforts to care for the trees and plants. He often cleared fallen branches, watered the ferns, and tended to the roots of the great Kauri trees.
One day, an elder named Kuia Hine called Tane to her whare. She was the spiritual guide of the iwi and held wisdom passed down through generations.
โTane,โ she said, โyou have a kind heart, but your efforts are scattered like leaves in the wind. You water the ferns, prune the harakeke, and tend to each plant, yet the ngahere is struggling to thrive. Why do you think that is?โ
Tane bowed his head, confused. โKuia, I thought I was serving the forest by tending to its parts. Have I been doing it wrong?โ
Kuia Hine smiled and handed him a kete. Inside was a small bowl of pure spring water.
โTake this water,โ she said, โand pour it at the base of the sacred Kauri in the heart of the ngahere. Do this every day, and watch what happens.โ
Tane did as instructed. Each day, he journeyed to the sacred Kauri, an ancient tree standing tall in the center of the forest. He poured the spring water at its roots, speaking karakia to Tฤne Mahuta, asking for blessings for the forest.
As the days turned into weeks, a miraculous change began to unfold. The sacred Kauriโs leaves became greener, its bark glowed with vitality, and its roots seemed to hum with life. But it wasnโt just the Kauri that thrivedโacross the ngahere, the ferns unfurled, the harakeke stood tall, and even the smallest plants blossomed with renewed vigor. The forest came alive with the songs of birds and the rustle of the wind through rejuvenated branches.
Kuia Hine visited Tane in the ngahere and observed the transformation.
โTane,โ she said, โdo you see now? By nurturing the roots of the Kauri, the source of the forestโs strength, you have nourished the entire ngahere. The Kauri shares its vitality with all the plants, birds, and creatures around it.โ
Tane bowed his head in awe. โKuia, I understand now. To truly serve the whole, I must focus on the source.โ
Kuia Hine nodded. โThis is the way of life, Tane. By serving Io Matua Kore, the Supreme, we nourish all beings. Like the Kauri is to the ngahere, Io is the root of all existence. Through karakia, aroha, and devotion to the Divine, all of creation is blessed.โ
From that day on, Tane continued his work in the ngahere with a renewed sense of purpose. He poured water at the base of the sacred Kauri and sang karakia, knowing that his service to the source benefited not just the forest, but all the beings who called it home.
Moral of the Story:
Like watering the root of a tree nourishes all its branches and leaves, serving Io Matua Kore, the Supreme, nourishes and uplifts all living beings. When we focus on the source of life and offer our devotion there, the blessings flow outward to sustain and enrich all of creation.
