Poll: What do you think about MPI's new dog-on-ute law?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Dogs on the back of a ute, on a dusty rural road: a scene that captures heartland New Zealand. But new MPI animal welfare regulations promise to complicate moving sheepdogs between paddocks, and other farming practices besides, with the threat of a fine from October.

Dogs on the back of a ute, on a dusty rural road: a scene that captures heartland New Zealand. But new MPI animal welfare regulations promise to complicate moving sheepdogs between paddocks, and other farming practices besides, with the threat of a fine from October.

Dogs on the back of a truck, trailer or ute, travelling on a public road, had to be tied up with a leash or rope, if not in a cage or crate. The only exception to the rule was if farm dogs were actively helping to move livestock along public roads, in which case they could jump on and off a vehicle.

People caught breaking that law could be fined up to $900 under new Animal Welfare Regulations from October. Read the ministry's guide to the Animal Welfare (Care and Procedures) Regulations at mpi.govt.nz. Read more here

Rooster, free to a good home

Alex from Tikitere - Mourea

Rescue rooster named Neville. He’s about one year old and was hand-raised so is extremely tame and friendly. He was seized due to being in an urban area, and I’m hoping to find a forever home for him. Comes with feed and a coop if needed! Genuine inquiries only, please.

The proposed site for Rotorua's first Special Housing Accord development was considered for a cemetery 14 years ago, but rejected due to the presence of "sewage sludge" and the fact that the area was also flood-prone.

The developer behind the plans for the almost 200 home project said he was well aware of the past concerns about the site, but was confident the sludge was no longer there after conducting about 120 soil tests.
