Dogs and hot footpaths

Julz from Westshore

Please please, please. On hot days if you have a dog, walk them early morning or evening. I hate seeing people strolling casually with their shoes on, yet the poor dogs are not protected. Stop walking your pets in the heat, or buy your dogs some booties. Today is supposed to be 28 degrees. Take a moment and think of your fur babies. Take your shoes off and see if you get blisters, See pic attached for proof what can happen. That was just a stroll by myself on a hot day without shoes a few years back.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
