Learn to Massage Your Dog ***only 3 spaces remaining****

The Balanced Dog Ltd

We've been teaching local dog parents in Christchurch the basics of dog massage since 2010.

The next workshop is on Sunday 22 March 2020 from 12:30 pm to 4:30 pm at the Macfarlane Park Centre, Shirley.

In this half-day workshop, you’ll learn how to give a full body acupressure massage and understand when it’s okay to massage your dog and when it isn’t. You’ll learn how to observe your dog’s movements and be ready to start keeping records from your massage sessions. Diet, supplements and senior dog care are also discussed. Each dog participating receives a free bag of fresh dog treats and owners a resource pack with useful goodies. Afternoon tea, too!

Payment is required at time of booking to reserve your place on the course; completion of a pre-course questionnaire is a requirement for attendance (this will be emailed to you).


***Our workshops are for pet parents; they are not for people intending to trade as a professional canine massage or rehab therapist***

Poll: What could the Christchurch City Council fund if it didn't have to pay GST on rates?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger says GST on rates, currently taken by central government, would be better spent locally.

The comments follow an Infometrics analysis that found over $1.1 billion of rates revenue nationwide was collected by the Government in 2022 as GST.

According to Infometrics, $88.5m of that came from Christchurch city ratepayers. It would be enough to save the Christ Church Cathedral from ruin; restore the Dux de Lux seven times over; cover both the Art Centre and Orana Wildlife Park’s request for regular public funding for over 26 years; contribute to light rail in Greater Christchurch; or get the South Library rebuild completed.
