Cyclist riding a bike plus holding onto a dog's lead with a golden what looked like a small Labrador dog.
A male cyclist cycling fast on a footpath opposite the train tracks and outside Silverstream school, today Tuesday afternoon. I was upset to say the least as the dog has to get off the footpath at speed and whilst trying to locate the road of which it eventually did, the cyclist stayed at his speed he was going! I did believe it was illegal to either ride a bike with a dog on a lead, either on a footpath or on our roads. The dog had no control as he was at the control of the cyclist, to be honest he did not appear to care or be concerned about the dogs welfare. I actually got out of the vehicle following seeing what had happened, and as the cyclist choose to cross the road at the next intersection I did speak to him with my concerns.
?please what can be done about this incident as it is the second time I have observed the same cyclist with the same dog being attached to a short lead and travelling at speed, ?Is this illegal, please let me know how to respond and what to do, to help the animal, please.

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 — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
