Keeping woofers warm over winter
The SPCA is calling on animal lovers to gather their warm blankets and dog jackets to donate to four-legged friends this winter.
SPCA Inspector Elissa McIntosh started the campaign to ensure canines living outside in kennels are provided with enough warmth and shelter to keep them happy and healthy.
Donations of blankets and dog jackets can be dropped off at SPCA's Wellington and Masterton Centres, their Johnsonville, Lower Hutt and Masterton Op Shops, as well as at South Wairarapa Vet Services' clinics across Wairarapa, from 14-27 June.
