Sweet Summer

Emma Bradley from DC Rescue Dogs

Advertising on behalf: Summer Age: 18months old Just over knee height
Breed: Lab x

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.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Wild weather in the Waikato

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Waikato really copped it over the weekend, with wild weather leaving a hefty clean-up bill that may run into the millions.

While things are looking calmer in the days ahead, there are still plenty of slips and flooded roads across the district — so if you’re heading out, take it easy and stay alert.

We want to know: How did you and your whānau get on over the weekend?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton City councillors have signed off on a plan change that could see Te Rapa Racecourse swap stables for townhouses.

The deputy mayor says this paves the way for “basically creating a new suburb within the city”.
