I'm a handsome, goofy, gentle giant who is loving and eager to please. I've been learning to walk nicely on a lead while at SPCA and am very responsive to treats and human affection. While I enjoy a walk, I'm also happy just to have a cuddle, and Netflix and chill.
I've made a few canine girlfriends at the centre, and mix best with larger girls who are happy to play and don't mind some barking. I am not suitable for a home with cats or small animals at this stage. I would be happy to live with teenage kids."

Hi there, does anyone have a sunny room that I could hire to paint in? I would want to be able to leave my paints and canvases in the room. I'm extremely tidy and would be hoping for a long term lease if possible. Niki. 0273 119 209.
My husband kindly picked these up from the cycle lane on Brooklyn rd. Let me know if they’re yours (lucky you probably won’t be needing them today!)

Some background information:
A 20-minute city (or neighbourhood) is one where most of your essential amenities are accessible within a 15-20-minute walk or easy bike ride of your home, with a wider range of services and workplaces connected via well connected public transport routes. It encourages people to live locally and invest in their neighbourhood as well as the wider city. Moreover, this could help reduce the number of short car journeys people take.
To ensure there are enough people to support a range of amenities and public transport, the concept encourages increased density and mixed-use buildings in and around neighbourhood centres, with density decreasing as we move further out. This density change helps ensure there can be diverse accommodation options within a single neighbourhood, giving more people the opportunity to live there.
Your participation will support this research by helping us to better understand the current ways that people in New Zealand use their immediate neighbourhood, and their individual perceptions of that neighbourhood. As well as helping us to identify what changes could be made to improve our neighbourhoods and how people’s patterns of movement might be affected.
This research has been approved by the Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington Human Ethics Committee #30072.
