Dog walking!!
Hello! Tabitha from Hound Hikes (www.houndhiking.com) here. We arrived in the Bay from Wellington in Feb and are setting up a Hawkes Bay dog walking Hound Hikes branch up here. If you'd like your hound to join in on one of our adventure hikes, please get in touch! We are currently running hikes Monday-Friday. We come and pick up and drop off your hound, take them on a 1-1.5 hour adventure hike off leash and also give them a rinse and towel dry if needed afterwards :) We post photos and videos after the hikes to Facebook @houndhiking and Instagram #houndhikesnz.
For 1-2 hikes a week its $30 per hike and for 3-5 hikes a week its $25 per hike. Another hound from the same family is $15 extra per hike.
Check out some of our pics of the hounds in action on hikes :)
Thanks,
Tabitha

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
