Free Dog Training Opportunity

Eliza from Mount Albert

Hi all,
I thought this might interest a dog owner out there, who has to leave their dog at home during the day.
I am looking to do the Unitec 1 year course for Canine Behavior and Training next year, with the aim of going into dog training in the future, which is a passion of mine. I don't currently own a dog, and need one to complete the course. It involves bringing a dog twice a week during the day, where I will be learning and applying training techniques. The campus is in Mt Albert.

Would anyone be interested in me taking their dog to my course twice a week next year. It would basically be free training and daytime entertainment for your dog, so should be mutually beneficial! The dog must be between 1.5 - 7 years old and ideally live near Mt Albert or Pt Chev (so I could collect and return on the 2 days). Dog must also be vaccinated, and spayed/neutered is ideal.

Please comment or flick me a message if interested.

Thanks very much,
Eliza.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble

Logan Campbell Retirement Village

Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.

This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
