Missing dog - found!
Update - Sunny has been found, thank you!
Sharing on behalf of a friend 😞 LOST 13mth old golden retriever named Sunny.
Description:
💜 Purple collar - with name & number on tag. • Multicoloured leash still attached possibly (see pic below)
• almost full size (big breed of dog)
• shorter fur on her back (like a Labrador) but feathery tail still like a retriever
• dark rings around eyes and darker ears
• anxious but very gentle and friendly
• MICROCHIPPED (so not the impounded lab people have spotted in the council pic)
We got her one week ago so she’s NEW to the area so might not find her way home to us. She’s not used to sudden noises & busy roads (from the countryside / far north). Very scared of fireworks etc.
Last seen:
Was near top of Sunnynook road around 8.40am on Wednesday 9th Nov but got a fright when my kid fell over and she ran off down the hill. Last seen running very fast (!!) down wylie ave / juniper rd near Sunnynook park but unsure after that as was scared and wasn’t stopping. Someone thought they spotted her in greenhithe but I don’t think the timings match up (they said 7.30am) - who knows though.
*Vets and Council contacted etc
• Posted on NZ lost dog registry, Lost Pet Finders NZ etc
What you can do:
• Please check your properties incase she’s hiding / resting.
• Grab her if you can gently approach her calling her name ‘Sunny’. She may run away if you run towards her. She’s anxious but very friendly & gentle / harmless!
• Please spread the word - she could be ANYWHERE on the north shore & beyond now (missing since Wednesday morning)

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
You are never alone
This year, I was given news that took the wind right out of this solo mum’s stomach: I was diagnosed with two types of curable breast cancer. Even writing those words still feels surreal.
I’ve recently completed five rounds of radiation, and while that chapter has closed, my journey is far from over. I now take daily medication — which, if I’m honest, comes with its own wild rollercoaster of highs and lows — along with monthly injections and six-monthly IV infusions.
All of this while raising two incredible, energetic tween boys who are full of wonder, life, and light. They have been my anchors on the darkest days and my reason to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
I’m sharing this because, in the New Year, I want to create a support group for anyone walking this path — no matter where you are on your journey. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, in treatment, finished treatment, or supporting someone you love.
Let’s build a village.
A place to lean, to cry, to laugh, to talk openly, and to remind each other that none of us have to do this alone.
Because the story doesn’t end when they tell you you’re “in the clear.”
In many ways, it’s just the beginning. 🌻
If this story touches your heart, and you’re on this journey too, feel free to message me. Even a quiet “me too” is enough...
