I came into SPCA under unfortunate circumstances and have been under the care of the Veterinarian and Canine Team. I am now ready for my forever home.
It has taken a bit of time for me to come out of my shell and learn to trust people but once to do I am very loving and loyal. I would love quiet, predictable home with someone around for parts or all of the day as I am not comfortable with being left alone and thrive with company. I would love a home that enjoys going for walks and adventures but at the same understands that I am not always comfortable around the hustle and bustle of city life, I can be a very sensitive soul. I do however, have a playful side. I love playing with toys."

What do you think about the Snapper card extension to Wellington Train services?
Snapper will be rolled out on Wellington train services from October this year, ending over a century of paper ticket use.
The Johnsonville Line will be the first to trial the paperless system, with a full roll out dependent on the finalisation of commercial negotiations.
This is seen as a step towards Waka Kotahi's planned National Ticketing Solution, an initiative that would see all of New Zealand's public transport centralised on one payment system. It would let commuters pay for their journey through a credit/debit card, similar to London's Oyster Card, in use since 2011.

The Snapper pilot will begin in October on the Johnsonville Rail Line, subject to the final completion of commercial negotiations.
Since its launch in 2008, Snapper cards have been used for the overwhelming majority of bus trips in the capital.
Wellington was originally meant to add card payments to trains back in 2015, under a Waka Kotahi plan to expand Auckland’s AT HOP card to the capital.

Forensic photographer Senior Constable Ivan Penrose has put the lens cap on his 33-year career – and brought to an end a 60-plus year family link with Police.

Ivan, who retired last month (9 April), was a trainee baker when he decided to join Police, becoming a member of Recruit Wing 114 in 1988. He was following in the footsteps of his father Tom, whose 31-year career began in 1959 and included 10 years as a dog handler, and brother Darryl, who joined in 1982 and served in the Hutt Valley and Waikato. Ivan’s own policing career began on the streets of Upper Hutt.
The year 2002 brought a learning experience of a sort, with the accidental discovery of an underground bunker in an Upper Hutt forest, kitted out as a cell for a would-be kidnap victim. Ivan spent two days recording the details.
Upper Hutt residents do you remember the kidnapping?
