Free vaccinations for dogs

Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust, Kowhai Vet, Avonside Wainoni Vet Clinic and Christchurch City Council are teaming up to give out free parvo vaccinations and microchips for dogs over six months old in the Eastgate Mall car park on Wednesday 23 July and Saturday 26 July🐾🐕‍🦺

In April, Dogwatch rescued an expectant mother who they then found out had parvo. After giving birth, all pups had to be humanely euthanised as they had no chance of survival.

Dogwatch Adoption Centre Manager Rae Rossiter says one little vaccination would have changed the outcome for all of those dogs, and that's what prompted them to organise this event.

The clinic will be open from 10am - 4pm, bookings are not required. Find more information on Newsline:

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
