Auckland Council is allowing public consultation on dog rules in Auckland until 10th May and I want to encourage as many local dog owners and non-owners alike to give feedback! Enrichment and socialisation are critical for healthy, happy dogs of all ages and these restrictions can directly impact on a dog’s ability to have those experiences.

Not every dog is a social butterfly

Is your dog just not into other dogs? This is such a common conversation that comes up and for most owners it’s an emotional one. Many people (owners and non-owners alike) expect that dogs are going to be best friends with every dog that they meet, but that often isn’t the case.
