Could Wellington become a pet paradise?

Erin Gourley Reporter from The Post

Hey neighbours, right now the council are discussing your pets! They are thinking about new locations for dog parks around the city and a $300 fine for walking a dog without a poo bag. Heaps of us got new furry friends over lockdown, with 15,000 dogs now living in Wellington (although cats are still our most popular pets, with 28,000 registered). Even pets like goats, bees and chickens are on the rise. Soon the council will want your opinion on these changes and which fluffy or feathered friends should be allowed in the city. Do you know any unusual pets in your suburb?
