Sharing the walkway.

Joe from Merrilands

My dog loves to walk me along Mangorei Road. We often meet with people needing an electric scooter or hand propelled seated chair to move around; those are extremely silent and I cannot hear them when they come from behind us...but doggy can; it scares him or he could think that a mechanical … View moreMy dog loves to walk me along Mangorei Road. We often meet with people needing an electric scooter or hand propelled seated chair to move around; those are extremely silent and I cannot hear them when they come from behind us...but doggy can; it scares him or he could think that a mechanical monster has swallowed someone and he tries to save them...so he jumps on the device...this might end someday with someone thrown on the street and injured. Could those using the devices have the common courtesy AND the commonsense of keeping themselves safe and make some noise when they come close to us from the back: ring a bell, blow a trumpet, yell or sing but be heard! Thank you.

She recently lost her precious long haired miniature daschund which was part of our family for 16 years. Would suit an older smaller dog looking for day time company and just be required to sit near her so she can reach out and make a fuss of from her wheelchair/ armchair in their lounge. This would make a world of difference for Mum to have such an opportunity made available to her. If you can help we would love to hear from you.
