@RaevenNZ@BenUffindell@PronouncedHare It sure does. And the story, which is a non-story, is still dominating on NZ Herald’s digital platforms (website and app), some 48 hours later. It needs to be taken down - there’s no news in there and it’s just facilitating more bullying.
@gplnz Thinking of GPLNZ today with the amazing news that greyhound racing is going to be finally banned in NZ, and of the dedicated work GPLNZ has done over the years to help spotlight this cruel form of ‘entertainment’ & change heats & minds to facilitate this outcome.
@AnnieForTruth A very gentle and sweet looking dog that passed way too young when she could have been re-homed. Then she suffered the indignity/gaslighting of Noem making her out to be aggressive. As if! This breed is not aggressive. Noem’s actions were fuelled by unhinged anger.
@chrisluxonmp@realDonaldTrump Yes, it's certainly historic - Trump is the first president to take office while several criminal cases against him are pending.
I am re-posting this given yesterday’s terrible news that 11 dogs are currently being ‘euthanised’ in Auckland pounds every day. Please sign the petition to give dogs in pounds hope.
Every year, thousands of dogs end up in pounds across Aotearoa. Their stories often go untold, & their fates remain unclear. It’s time for change. It’s time for transparency.
Our mission: to improve the lives of impounded dogs!

Live exports make up only 0.6% of NZ’s primary sector exports. The $ benefits are minimal compared to the potential damage to our reputation

@AMAZlNGNATURE Quite capably, I suspect. That is, if they were left to their own devices without being incarcerated in enclosures with ridiculous "toys" such as these.
It has been reported that the Racing Minister will decide on the future of greyhound racing within weeks.
Briefing papers hint that Cabinet must weigh in on whether the industry has the social license to continue.
Spoiler alert: It doesn’t 😬

A crisis in NZ. Something urgent needs to happen: make it illegal for landlords to discriminate against tenants with pets, make de-sexing compulsory and dis-incentivise deliberate breeding. via @nzherald https://t.co/PQ52ankgb6
I finally typed up an explanation for withdrawing from my PhD that I shared on my Instagram and my Facebook with my family and friends so I figured my new Twitter family deserved to see it too
