Do we need better animal welfare rules in Aotearoa?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

CDANZ estimates that around 250,000 dogs are chained up for their entire lives in Aotearoa. Animal welfare inspectors from the SPCA can do little for them and only in the most extreme cases can dogs be seized, and owners prosecuted, due to the resources involved.

Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

Hi there,

Rather Urgent.

Looking for someone with scaffolding to help put plywood around
windows to prevent rain water from coming in the bedroom, as window
has broken.

If the firebrigade can do this that would be great too.

Scaffolding would be about 4 metre high or so.

Someone who can get the plywood from Bunnings or tell me which size it should be.

Until a decision is found on how to deal with this.

Thanks for contacting me here or on 0225055871.

Very appreciated.

All the best.
