Matted Fur - Posted on behalf - Health Issue

Alison Neighbourly Lead from Kamo

A Message from Bec at the Grooming Lounge (Barkleys on the River)

🌟🌟MATTED DOGS🌟🌟

It's that time of year again.....
Though we try and encourage everyone to keep coming in during winter, some are coming into us like this (See attached). It's so so important to keep coming in through the cooler months!
This dog's matts were so tight, when I released the pressure of hair from the ends of his ears, they started to bleed. This happens when blood rushes back into the ear. This dog took me 3 hours to get this off and to finish off the groom. He was a champion though and didn't complain once.

So, if you have a dog with long fur - Give him (or Her) a treat - they will feel sooooo much better in this heat!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
