For people with elderly or unwell dogs (or young puppies)

Cherry from Heathcote Valley

I just bought this brilliant dog carrier pack from TradeMe for $17.50! (For a friend’s elderly dog who still likes to go for short walks). I believe they come in a range of sizes, this is an XL.

It has padded back straps, a waist strap, a clip to hold your dog in and can be worn back or front. Heaps of pockets for doggy bags, treats, keys, water bottle etc. I put a cushion in the bottom for comfort. It is made of mesh in the sides so your little one won’t get too hot!

I don’t sell these or have anything to do with them, I just know a lot of people don’t take their old dogs out any more for lack of a convenient way to transport them. Hope this will help some other dog owners. All the best Cherry 🍒

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.

But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
