Record number apply to become guide dog puppy trainers after appeal
An organisation which trains and provides guide dogs for vision impaired New Zealanders has received a "record" number of applicants seeking to temporarily house new puppies.
On Wednesday, Stuff reported that guide dog charity Blind Low Vision NZ needed homes for 40 puppies in the next three months, with only 10 homes being confirmed.
The impacts of Covid-19 and the cost of living crisis had affected both staffing and volunteer numbers, said Rochelle Corrigan, puppy placement and development manager.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?
Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?
Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
