Therapy dog
Am looking for an owner of a small dog who wouldn't mind their pet being brought into a loving kind home for a few hours a week to keep my Mum company and much longed for emotional support that animals can naturally provide by just being there. She recently lost her precious long haired miniature daschund which was part of our family for 16 years. Would suit an older smaller dog looking for day time company and just be required to sit near her so she can reach out and make a fuss of from her wheelchair/ armchair in their lounge. This would make a world of difference for Mum to have such an opportunity made available to her. If you can help we would love to hear from you.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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?

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?
