Wandering Dogs

Jen from Bulls - Sanson

Has anyone else noticed a couple of dogs that have been roaming Hedges Street, Sanson? Has your dog come home with a sore paw?

The reason I ask is my partner and I have caught a couple of dogs roaming around and one of them has jumped our gate and fence. As it did, he's caught his paw on the gate and kind of tumbled over it. We fear they are after our rabbits and are concerned for the safety of our dog and our children. We believe that they are bull mastiffs and one I know is like a light caramel colour. Please if you know this could be your dog, do something about it to ensure they are not getting free because the last thing any of us wants is an animal put down due to attacking a child or another animal.

My name is Whatikitiki Kimura, I reside on Willoughby Street Halcombe! I am really annoyed with the reception that SPARK provide as I have to go out on to the street to get reception, I have complained to them and they say that they can not help and that I just have to persevere! I am posting this message to people in our community that have the same trouble or are with SPARK!, I know that up in Kimber Street it is the same there, no reception and you have to go out on to the road! This happens only with my Cell Phone the flashes gadget on the planet but I cant use it in my house! I am currently on one of their biggest plan pay over $150 a month! Would anyone want to get together on this issue and put in a community complaint, meaning that if there were many people in Halcombe we could combine and give them a big complaint and Im sure that they would have to do something about the reception that they provide which is NIL in my house! For what I pay to SPARK each month surely warrants top of the shop service from SPARK! To ring a cell phone in my house I have to use my Land Line which are very expensive phone calls other wise I have to walk out on to road to use my cell phone once again a very annoying thing that have do to ring someone, I am also asking for any advice perhaps from anyone who may be accustomed to handling issues of these matters, thank you and I look forward to positive replies! Tena ra koutou katoa!

Now the government is reviewing their plan for protecting these precious dolphins.

That’s where you come in. The more data we have about where Māui dolphins swim, the more chance we have of protecting them. If you see a dolphin with a rounded fin, send it in!
