Have you experienced the first night of having a new pup at home?

Carly Gooch Reporter from The Nelson Mail

They bring you so much joy, along with worry, anxiety and sleepless nights when you first get them home but you hope that with some shaping, they become chilled out, well-rounded dogs. The first night is tough on all parties, usually with the pup whining and crying, while you tough it out or cave to its demands. Do you remember the first night you brought you pooch home? What was it like? How old is your dog now? Share you stories with us, we love puppy yarns!

Nelson City Council is working to restore the glasshouse at Broadgreen House, which has begun to crack and buckle.

Keen for the details? The Nelson Mail has you covered.
