Lovely Hazel is looking for a new family
I'm helping my friends find a new home for their dog Hazel. The family is simply not able to give Hazel the context she needs with everything they have on their plate (three boys and a full house!).
Hint: Hunt / loyal / working type breed so she’ll enjoy spending time, outdoors and exercising.
Free to a good home or family — but we will want to meet the new owners to check suitability.
Hazel is a mixed breed, but I reckon some Huntaway in there — looks like maybe some Rhodesian or maybe even Black Mouth Cur…. She is gentle, energetic, friendly and curious.
Her mother was a rescue dog and pregnant at the time she was rescued. Hazel has always been in good care. She will turn 1 in November.
She has received about 5 Hours of Professional dog training, a bit more from the family and I'm sure she will adapt quickly and smoothly with a new owner.
Feel free to spread around. 
Message me with a little info about your self a little about your household and your contact number..
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
