DOG REGISTRATION

Sue from Takaro

I was appalled when two weeks ago I found a small white fluffy dog stray, just walking along while walking my own dog. I stayed with it having called the owners number, then called the Council and waited about 30 minutes for a security company PPS to come and collect her. The man who arrived picked her up face on, by the head - and she screamed in pain. I said "Is she injured? I didn't notice any injury on her before"... The man said "I don't think she liked the way I picked her up!

This is now two weeks ago and I have called the Council to have Animal Control contact me - but no such luck. When i pay as much as I do for Dog Registration, I expect anyone sent by Council to pick her up to be trained in how to do so without hurting her.
I am extremely upset at what i witnessed and then that NO ONE has had the decency to contact me from the Council.
Why do we pay so much for this type of service??

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
