Dog gone, I need some help
I'm a journalist writing a piece about the growth in the dog industry. I'd like to speak with dog owners who use doggy daycares, dog groomers and dog walkers; folks who buy special food for their dogs, go on pooch-friendly holidays and visit fur-friendly hotels. Ideally, I'd like to tag along with your dog for the day to show what they do and what services they use. The story will be peppered with facts and figures about the industry serving our canines.
If you can help, please call Bess Manson on 027 807 0579 or email bess.manson@stuff.co.nz I look forward to hearing from you
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
We're sad to announce the passing of Nicholas Boyack, our Hutt Valley reporter who has long written for The Dominion Post, The Hutt News and Upper Hutt Leader.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
