Dog Owner Etiquette.

Tracey from Green Bay

To the woman in Seddon Fields with your 2 dogs who stared at me condescendingly while I struggled with my leashed reactive dog, thanks so much for your empathy while you proceeded to throw the ball right in front of me several times to your unleashed dogs...perhaps you should consider being kind instead of judgmental. Yes, my dog was barking at yours and lunging but no, you are not aware of the fact that I have recently had surgery and had difficulty holding her because of the pain in my arm. You also don't know that my dog is reactive through no fault of her own because of unleashed dog attacks and has in fact been to several renowned dog trainers to help her with her anxiety. Your rude stares and lack of compassion when seeing another dog owner struggling, was not something to feel proud of. If I see another dog owner struggling, I always try to make the situation easier for them, not more difficult as no one knows the owner or dog's circumstances. Your attitude sucks.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
