Snoop has been missing for 8 weeks.
It has been hard 😥
He is a 4 year old, male foxy cross, small, black and tan dog.
Thanks to friends we have printed off some big posters and will put them up around the north.
He could be anywhere but sightings have been Mangamuka/Kohukohu/Panguru way. We are also looking Kaitaia and surrounding areas, and Whangarei.
Please keep looking for our boy. If you see him walking the highway stop. It means he has escaped and is trying to find his way home.
We love him. We want him back.
A reward is offered for his return, no questions asked.
Come home Snoopy-do.
Rach and Ryan 094061591 or 0223662151
*please share his photo around 🙏

There are expected squally thunderstorms alongside heavy rain and hail, as well as a possible small tornado. There is some risk that the thunderstorm will become severe with localised downpours of 25 to 35 mm/h, 110 km/h wind gusts, and the chance of a localised damaging tornado.
Low-lying areas such as streams, rivers or narrow valleys with this intensity of rainfall may cause flash flooding and/or slips. This will make the driving conditions hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility due to the rain. Wind gusts of this strength, and damaging tornadoes can cause structural damage, including trees and power lines.
The weather watch is in place until 6pm tonight but any changes will be reported on the MetService website.

On Christmas Eve 2021, Auckland man Sumit Sharma found himself squeezing in three trampoline-assembly jobs within one day. What sounds like a surprising workload for a former Deloitte cybersecurity consultant has, over four years, turned out to be an essential part of Sharma’s journey towards creating a digital marketplace for odd jobs in Auckland.
The marketplace is called Ezy Peazy, and for Sharma, getting his hands dirty as an Ezy Peazy tasker (handyman) has become normal as he nurtures the Auckland app into its fourth year.
Founded by Sharma in 2019, with “right-hand man” Amandeep Singh joining as a UI designer and handyman, EzyPeazy.co.nz has been growing slowly but steadily and managing to thrive in Auckland by matching users’ needs (Posts) with handymen and women who can fulfill the task (Taskers) – all for a small transaction fee, all security-vetted, and all assured with verified customer reviews.
Ezy Peazy aims to expand into the construction industry later in 2022, but for now has found a niche taking care of Kiwis’ demand for getting small odd jobs completed such as furniture assembly, gardening, removals and landscaping.
“I had noticed a gap in the industry of finding assistance for small jobs. I found that if something breaks down and needs repair or installation in New Zealand, finding recommendations of someone to do the job can be hard because quotations vary so much, and references and endorsements weren’t consistent and reliable. So that’s why I started the platform.”
The reason Sharma ended up building tramps last Christmas eve was because from Day One, the New Windsor and Mt Roskill-based founders had a policy of being unafraid to step in and do jobs which users wanted done, but which weren’t always quickly filled back when few people had heard of Ezy Peazy.
“If a job comes up and it’s not being filled, we should fill in the gap, that was our ethos.”
“We are not afraid of doing any of the jobs listed on Ezy Peazy ourselves, so long as they don’t require professional certification and licensing. We have done a lot of landscaping jobs, weeding, digging gardens the whole day til our muscles and bones hurt for three days afterwards, moving a whole three bedroom flat to Hamilton. We have also become specialists at trampoline assembly and we can do it without looking at the manual now!”
The founders have often stepped in to bid for jobs to ensure as few Posters as possible end up being left in the lurch without their job completed. On one occasion, a customer Sharma describes as “A sweet old lady” needed her couch straightened which took plenty of time to drive to - and took a grand total of one minute to complete.
Hanging drapes, installing a lock, moving house, trimming hedges and tiling a splashback are typical jobs listed on EzyPeazy.co.nz on any given day. Rather than taking business away from professionals in the phone book, Ezy Peazy is intended to fill in and provide more work for professionals who may have experienced a downturn during the chaos of Covid. Reviews and endorsements are automatically collected, which is helpful for busy Taskers who might not have time to market themselves online.
An extra benefit is payment goes through a gateway, which can make it easier to pay swiftly, get paid swiftly, and resolve disputes.
A benefit of “getting inside” the Taskers’ experience, undertaking bluecollar jobs and seeing the app from Taskers’ point of view is it has helped Sharma get a good understanding about pay rates, appropriate labour conditions, travel, contracting laws, and Sharma can now describe the app to users from real lived experience.
With 2400 jobs posted and completed so far the next step will be capturing the Auckland market, expanding into construction industry jobs, and expanding into other cities.
Meanwhile, profit-sharing is being built into Ezy Peazy’s revenue plan, and the business is also looking for a great Auckland charity to share 10% of profits with. “Please get in touch with us via our website if you would like to become one of our partners,” Sharma says.
