Roaming dogs at night

Jo from Westown

Please fellow dog owners make sure your dogs are locked up on your property .. I came home from work at 4am Saturday morning to my poor cat been mauled by two dogs ... They had come on to the property up two flight s of stairs to the front door and had her in their mouths both pulling on her like a toy.. my daughter heard the rukus and looked out the window and seen it all .. by the time she called out to her father .. it was too late .. the carnage was done .. my poor cat had her Jaw ripped apart , puncture wounds over her body one eye had popped out and the other had gone black to the point where she was blind . My husband wrapped her up in a towel and put her in a box ... I called the emergency vet group and we took her down ... Her injuries were so severe she literally had her head crushed but my baby was still breathing . Unfortunately we had to put her to sleep .. All this carnage happened under a minute .. but it wouldn't of happened if you had locked your damn dog up ... My daughter recognized one of the dogs .. it's a known roamer in the Westown .. Pembroke area .. it looks like a staffy terrier ... Tannish brown with a white chest possibly belly and the other dog was possibly dark brown or maybe dark grey . So if you live in the area keep an eye out ... I'm so gutted 😭

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
