Poll: Do you support changes to our smoking laws?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Many high schools report that vaping is a growing issue despite the 18+ legal smoking age and this has been associated with the proximity of schools to vaping retailers.

Recent amendments have been made to The Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products Amendment Act to limit nicotine in products and cease supply to those born in/after 2009. Less retailers are to be approved and product packaging made less appealing.

Until March 15, public submissions will accepted regarding these changes, especially around the location and quantity of retail stores as well as the appeal and addictiveness of smoked tobacco products.

I am an animal lover and have owned all sorts of pets over my life: dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, birds, fish you name it! Currently, my wee boy is a Pomeranian named Beau and I have a senior cat named Cosmo. I have experience with different dog breeds of smaller size and different ages from puppies through to senior dogs.

SERVICE:
I am offering a dog walking service for SMALL dogs only up to around 10kgs AND drop in feeding visits for any other animals. If you require pet sitting for an extended period requiring more than a just a drop in visit then please contact me for more information.

Walks will be at a local dog park area or walking track with pick up/drop off to your home. Walks can also be solo or social (with other dogs) as per request.

Drop in feeding visit can include watering house plants/taking out rubbish bins etc.

30 min walk $15
1 hour walk $25

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
