Hi, Anyone else have issues with dogs at the dog park?
My beautiful, sweet natured girl just loves to run & play & I always check out the park before going in. Today, it looked good then a lady arrived with her dog who was very overbearing on mine & but next thing, mine squeals but seems ok, so I leave as fast as I can, not realising until after leaving that she has a long, deep tooth graze just under her eye! Not bleeding but another few cm and she would be blind in that eye!
Her 2 doggie besties (1 of whom I met on here!) aren't avail much anymore due to their owners working dif hours now. I have other friends with small dogs, but she needs a med sized dog like herself (black lab/staffy x) with a sweet nature like herself.

Does anyone have a med sized dog who is sweet natured, (not overbearing or nip) but loves to play & run that might like to meet mine (NOT at the dog park!)?

We could meet up on leads first & see if they're happy with each other & go from there. Pse txt 027 5141 394 Cheers, Jo

When back pain strikes unexpectedly, it may be both annoying and confusing. What is causing your back discomfort if you haven't made any changes to your normal routine?

The solution might be in your mattress. There are several red flags to check for to determine whether your mattress is to fault. The first indicator is when you have a backache. If you have back discomfort when you first wake up, but you can stretch it away in 15-30 minutes, your mattress is doing more damage than good.

Also, if you find yourself waking up more frequently or tossing and turning in bed, this should be another red flag. Even if you do not suffer from back problems, you should change your mattress every eight to ten years for a healthier lifestyle and better sleep quality.

Whangarei District Council is delighted to announce the recipients of our 2022 Civic Honours Awards. Our District’s top honours for this year go to Felicity Christian, Brian Corney, Fred Tito and Steve Westgate, in recognition of their outstanding service to the community.

A Civic Honour Award is the highest honour we can bestow on a Whangārei resident. Each of these recipients has been nominated by people in their communities who have seen first-hand what they have achieved throughout their lifetime. Through tireless work, commitment and generosity of spirit, each of these nominees has made our District a better place.

Only four Civic Awards are given out each year. In a District with more than 96,000 people, receiving one of these awards is an outstanding achievement. Once again we congratulate Felicity, Brian, Fred and Steve and warmly thank them for their service to our District.

The 2022 recipients were announced at a special ceremony on 30 September with friends, family members, Mayor Sheryl Mai, councillors and local dignitaries in attendance.

📸From left to right: Fred Tito , Brian Corney, Steve Westgate and Felicity Christian.

You can nominate special people from your community for our 2023 Civic Honour awards now.
