Thieves steal puppies from Turangi SPCA

Nicola Brennan-Tupara Reporter from Taupō Times

Hi neighbours,
Turangi SPCA has not had a good morning after thieves climbed over barbed wire fences to steal their puppies SPCA under the cover of darkness.

SPCA manager Stacy Lewis said thieves made off with six pups early on Thursday.
They took three 10-week-old American bull terriers; Hunter, a 8-week old huntaway pup; Sandy, an 8-week old foxy/shephard cross; and Nico, a 12-week old Mastiff cross.
Lewis has made an appeal for the thieves to return the dogs either to Turangi's SPCA, 'no questions asked' or by dropping the animals into the amnesty box at Turangi pound.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
