Adopt Me!

Emma Bradley from DC Rescue Dogs

Age: 7 months.
Breed: Lab x.
Location: Rural Hamilton.

Meet Squid!

This poor dude was found in a farm drain at 4 weeks old. He is a sweet loving boy full of energy and will need to be exercised daily.

He grew up around dogs and cats. He is currently in a foster home with cats, another dog & chickens. He showed little interest to the cats (especially if they are boss) but is not good with the chickens.

Squid has a beautiful nature and would make an awesome family dog and adventure buddy. Hes happy to do whatever you are doing and go wherever you go. He would love to join a family with another dog.

He has his basket in the lounge at night when watching TV and he settles down. He can be a little destructive if left on his own mainly paper and plastic so will require some training around this, maybe crate training would benefit him.

He has a real lovely nature and we get lots of sloppy kisses. If you can offer Squid a loving home with a big back yard, he would love to meet you.

Squid will go to his new home desexed, vaccinations started, microchipped & registered on NZCAR & council registered so an adoption fee of $280 is required.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
