Dogs at Beaches & Conservancies
Dear dog owners,
Please remember to keep your fur babies on a leash while walking at the beach or within a Conservancy. Your dog may be perfectly well-behaved off-leash, but another dog it may encounter, not so much. There are also other people/kids walking in these areas who are not comfortable around dogs (large or small); and if your dog is not on a leash this can be quite distressing for them.
Please remember that there are some with a phobia (Cynophobia), who would also like to enjoy the outdoors.
I do understand that there are places dogs are allowed to be off-leash but we still need to consider all living around us as we share the same spaces. :-)
Thank you for understanding.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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.
