A random act of kindness

Caroline from Central Whangarei

I want to thank a woman today at the Growers Market. I was trying to buy some strawberries, but must have taken the $20 out of my wallet already, so I only had $5 - not enough.

I was trying to buy some strawberries, but must have taken the $20 out of my wallet already, so I only had $5 - not enough. The man was happy to use the eftpos for the needed $10 but he couldn't get it to work, so the woman beside me reached across and said "Here. Have this $10"!!!! Wow I was blown away. How wonderful in this time of bad things happening, that someone completely unknown to me, pays for my strawberries. I hastily gave her the lonely $5. If you are this woman - "Thank you for making my day so much better."

These people are new to Northland and their "much loved" dog has disappeared. Please keep an eye out and if you know anything, please give them a call.

The day started early at 6.00am with a drive around the area in the hope that the quiet morning might entice him to walk a bit more alongside the roads. Dropped a few leaflets at the local supermarket, the weekend market as well. Thank you all for the kindness of your messages and sharing the posts. If we have forgotten to acknowledge you it is a mistake and we are sorry about it. Again we ask people, whanau in Kerikeri , Waipapa and the rest of the Far North district to SHARE , SHARE and hope that if he has travel a lot more afar than we thought and he has been picked up the kind driver will drop him at a vet's , the SPCA...
Skoota is a 10 YO Foxy X Jack Russell , mainly white with a brown spot on his back, has a red collar with names tag and telephone numbers, and a council tag from the South Island as we only recently moved up to Waipapa.
The first and only sighting was 72 hours ago on Kapiro Road Waipapa. Nothing since. He can be timid, certainly not aggressive, not interested in killing and eating sheep.

Also recently had a medical condition making him at times disoriented and unbalanced and for this needs care and regular visit to the vet's .

Again we ask people to share the info if possible as only with a wider community will we be able to locate him.

The country out there is huge and being so small it makes our task almost impossible on our own. Any sighting will help .

Please call 0212113462 if you can help.Thank you
