For people with elderly or unwell dogs (or young puppies)
I just bought this brilliant dog carrier pack from TradeMe for $17.50! (For a friend’s elderly dog who still likes to go for short walks). I believe they come in a range of sizes, this is an XL.
It has padded back straps, a waist strap, a clip to hold your dog in and can be worn back or front. Heaps of pockets for doggy bags, treats, keys, water bottle etc. I put a cushion in the bottom for comfort. It is made of mesh in the sides so your little one won’t get too hot!
I don’t sell these or have anything to do with them, I just know a lot of people don’t take their old dogs out any more for lack of a convenient way to transport them. Hope this will help some other dog owners. All the best Cherry 🍒

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)
