Auckland's Ted the Uber dog dies after month-long illness

Josephine Franks Reporter from Central Leader

Kia ora neighbours. Sad news - after more than 3500 trips, Ted the Uber dog has completed his last journey.

The 13-year-old bichon-poodle cross died on Monday morning after a month-long illness.

Ted was a firm favourite with Auckland Uber riders, earning his owner Peter Barrett a near-perfect 4.93 star rating.

Barrett paid tribute to an "amazing little guy" whose death "leaves a gap".

Did you ever ride with Ted?

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
