Attention Doggy Parents: Cost-effective Dog Walks Are Now Available!

Would you like your dog to get more exercise during the week while you're at work? We're a father-and-son team setting up a new pack for small and small-friendly medium-sized dogs, offering daily walks and exercise in large fully-fenced areas starting from mid-October. We're WCC-registered dog walkers, with prices starting at $20 for daily outings (including pick-up and drop-off to your home). This way, you can give your dog exercise every day without breaking the bank, unlike costly doggy day care.

We currently have spaces available in this pack (pictured). Our excursions last up to two hours (including travel time), making it a great way to alleviate dog boredom, keep them fit, socialise them, and provide toilet breaks if they're stuck indoors. For more information, please message me (Shaun) or phone/text Peter on 021 222 9448.

We aim to be the second-best part of your dog's day – the first being when you come home, of course! :)

Peter and Shaun, WellyWags

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
