Queen-sized mattress, very comfortable

But it's a very comfortable mattress, and seems to have had very little use.

You are most welcome to pop by and check it out - PM me!

Puppies born in October will be close to weaning and ready for their new homes shortly. If you’re looking for a puppy, and the litter was born after 1 October, it must have a tail. We recently introduced new regulations that restrict people from docking dogs' tails. There are a few breeds with naturally ‘bobbed’ tails like the Australian shepherd, but remember: most dogs without a tail have traditionally been docked.

So make sure your new bundle of floof has a tail to tell. Tails are super important for communicating. And not only that! They also look great. In celebration of dogs with tails, we've put together a cute photo gallery of dog breeds that used to get their tails docked – so that you can see them in all their glory. Finally, here's a fun fact! Puppies don’t use their tails until they’re 3-4 weeks old. This is when they start to interact & ‘talk’ to each other. For more information about the new animal welfare regulations that came in on 1 October, visit our website: www.mpi.govt.nz...


Docking of dogs' tails was banned in New Zealand on 1 October 2018. Following on from that, we've put together a gallery of some breeds that often get their tails docked. If you're keen to learn more about the animal welfare regulations that came in on 1 October, visit our website: www.mpi.govt.nz...

Updating 'Support group for people with no living blood relatives'

Niki from Newtown

However I believe that a second group will develop and that will be aimed at people with dissabilities within the community who also have no living blood relatives. I see a place for very valued kind volunteers in creating a welcoming and safe environment for the group members. We have been incredibly lucky by being offered the use of the beautiful Haitaitai Bowling Club rooms as a base rent free...how wonderful is that! So we have somewhere lovely to go, many offers of voluntary help from kind members in the community and potentially our first member for the group for people with dissabilities who are also completly alone. Within the first group (my group) there are five members so far. I can't thank the outside supporters enough, please stay in contact. Regards, Niki.
