What a pleasure to meet Hayley Parsons of Clarks Beach, Auckland. She and husband Chris relocated this huge three-storey villa from Palmerston North to Auckland, and project managed the rebuild of Huntly House from London. Wonderful house, wonderful history.
Our Pet of the Day is Cleo who belongs to Elizabeth Innes from Berhampore. Cleo loves running around on Kāpiti Beach.

"Hello all, I am Gabe! A fun, loveable boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."

We want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has donated to us, the vet clinics who have supported us, and to those who reached out requesting these items for their dog - together we can make a difference for canines out in the community.
There are just FOUR DAYS LEFT for people to register their interest and our Wellington and Masterton Centres still have plenty of blanket supplies left to give out to the community. By the end of the week, it's our mission to see all of these blankets with canines who need them. Wellington, will you help us?
PLEASE, if you have a canine who will be spending a lot of time outside this winter, have an outside dog who needs blankets for their kennel, or you know someone who needs these items for their fur baby, our team urges you to get in touch as soon as possible.
Contact our team TODAY by emailing wellington.info@spca.nz, along with the following information, and we will be in touch:
- Owner’s name
- Contact number
- Address
- Type of dog
- Dog size
- Nearest SPCA Centre (Wellington or Masterton)
- Are you able to collect from your nearest centre (Yes or No)
Registrations close on Monday 5 July, so you have only FOUR DAYS LEFT!
We have only had small dog jackets donated and have very limited supplies available, so our team will be providing additional blankets to those with larger dogs.
PLEASE NOTE: This service is only available in Wellington and Wairarapa. Conditions apply, for more information and conditions, please visit our website at www.spca.nz...
PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW! The more canines we can help together, the better.

Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, ages, orientations and genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.
There are many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck or film screening to providing prevention information / resources in other languages, there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their first language or ensuring local footpaths are clear and accessible.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re creating inclusive communities this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

*James Stellin Memorial Park In Northland on Tinakori Hill, James Stellin Memorial Park has stunning 180-degree views over the city to the harbour as well as neat night sky viewing opportunities.
*Tawatawa Reserve is a large flat grassed area that is dog exercise-friendly and is located on Quebec Street, in between the suburbs of Owhiro Bay, Kingston, and Island Bay.
*The Ataturk Memorial Park lookout can be accessed from the Tarakena Bay car park on Breaker Bay Road.
* Waihinahina Park, located on Ladbrooke Drive in Newlands, is an open grassed area surrounded with regenerating bush – an ideal spot for stargazing Matariki on a clear night!
* Homebush Park on Homebush Road in Khandallah, is a hidden playground down a gravel track has breathtaking views over Wellington harbour and the wide-open skies above.
Matariki is found low on the horizon in the northeast of the sky. Try looking there between 5.30am-6.30am.
To find the cluster, first find the row of three stars of Tautoru, or Orion’s Belt (or The Pot). To find Pūanga (Rigel) look above Tautoru until you see the bright star.
From there, scan left until you find the bright orange star, Taumata-kuku (Alderbaran) and keep going until you hit a cluster of stars. That cluster is Matariki.
