Here is what her mum has to say about this gorgeous girl. "Summer is beautiful friendly girl, loves lots of cuddles attention and will lick your face for hours if you let her!! She loves playing chase and tuggawar, and will sit on your lap lol. She is very very gentle when taking treats, I just say nicely and she will take the treat with her front teeth! She knows sit, down, stay, roll over and we have been working on her re-call. We use commands which we learnt through her trainer. Summer is also crate trained. She will need somewhere with good fencing. I think she would also love a home with another dog as she just loves other dogs!! She chases cats....and I think older dog savvy kids would be better than little ones as she's very energetic. She is desexed, vaccinated, registered, microchipped etc. Genuine reason for rehoming and a very hard decision.

26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.8% ... It is complicated

Tamahere home in dentist case was once centre of accountant’s fraud
It’s been a feature in a recent Hamilton District Court trial , but a Tamahere mansion already has an complicated history.
The property in Woodcock Rd - notable for having a hydroslide in the back yard - the scene of now-disproved alleged sexual offending by Hamilton dentist Rahul Gautam - made headlines more than 15 years ago, when it was a focus in the case of accountant Gary Soffe.
