Guide Dog

Theresa from Greytown

Ankie is a Guide Dog and the newest member of our family and the Wairarapa Region. She is out and about with her handler regularly in Greytown, the greater Wairarapa region and beyond.
Guide Dogs are permitted under the Human Rights Act 1993 and the Dog Control Act 1996 to have legal access to any place or vehicle and use any facility as any other member of the public. Failure to permit a guide dog and their handler could be a breach of the handlers Human Rights. As the partner witnessing refusal of entry, or being told NO DOGS ALLOWED is very stressful for us all. Ankie will be everywhere my partner goes and where we go as a couple.
We are both shocked at the ignorance that is prevalent in our community.

If there is any organisation, business, school and ECE centres that would like us to visit please do not hesitate to pm me.

Theresa on behalf of her partner and his beautiful assistant Guide Dog Ankie.
