Dog handlers turns heads
Meet the dog walker who controls 16 dogs.
Drivers stop to take photos and after a ruff day, office workers come up to Phil Krieg to ask if they can pat the group of dogs accompanying him along the footpath.
It's a hard sight to miss in Wellington, Krieg in his bright yellow vest walking a large group of dogs, moving together as a calm and orderly canine collective.
With Krieg as their leader, the dogs sit when they were told and moved to the side to make way for runners, other dogs and those walking on the footpath.
In 2008, Krieg’s wife, Penny, came up with their dog walking business, Loose Leash Dog Walking. Penny said they called it Loose Leash because that was the idea – walking the dogs on a loose leash and trusting them to behave.
The pair lead groups of dogs, ranging from 12 to 16, on walks around Wellington.
Library Closure
I wonder what goes on in the heads of the TDC personal when they spend $5 million on the new Motueka Library and are now talking about closing it on weekends when staff are sick and possibly 1 week day With winter just round the corner days getting colder the library is a meeting place the only place where one can go on a cold day to read borrow books or attend on of the many gatherings that are alway on in the library
Perhaps they should have not built the library as the old building sits empty and given themselves a big bonus for running the TDC as a vibrant council
When will these people pull there head out of the sand and run the council as a successful business as a not as a group of infants
We as those who like to live in this area its time to wake up and get rid of this riffraff and elect people who know how to run local bodies successfully
