Firewood Fundraiser

Emma Bradley from DC Rescue Dogs

Ready to burn, dry wood, in convenient blocks (just like you buy in the supermarket).

With so many new puppy faces in care and more in the pipeline we have been donated firewood to sell to help raise funds.

Big thanks to the lovely people that made this happen.

Here’s a chance to stock up on firewood for the coming winter at a super cheap price while helping to save more puppies.

Thrown trailer loads:

* $60 for single trailer load
* $100 for a single trailer with cage or double trailer
* $140 for a double trailer with cage.

Pick up is Taupiri, no delivery sorry.
Please PM us for a pick up time and address.

Will these roadworks affect you?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Don’t expect a quick trip between Cambridge and Tamahere for much of this year, because major roadworks are starting.

Asphalt works on that section of Waikato Expressway will run from March through to late 2026, NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) says. Motorists are warned to plan for significant delays.

“Unfortunately the pavement, particularly in the slow lanes, has deteriorated faster than expected,” NZTA’s Roger Brady said.

Poll: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.

A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.
