Small white fluffy dog roaming around Makomako Street

Wylie from Frankton

Kia ora all,

A small white fluffy boy dog has been seen roaming around Makomako Steeet and Kereru Street.

He seems lost and or confused. He seems a bit timid and would approach then flee once he got too close.

I am concerned because he doesn’t seem to be too road-safe.

Hope he finds his home soon ❤️

On Tuesday, the Waikato Times revealed Waikato Thoroughbred Racing’s (WTR) plans to buy 150ha of farmland south of Hamilton to house the region’s three racing clubs at a new purpose-built racecourse and event centre.

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!
