Betty Hall recently retired after more than three decades in animal welfare in Tauranga.
Her job with the Western Bay of Plenty District Council involved enforcement and education.
She's dealt with canines with a range of behavioural issues and many animal owners who she could help to understand their pets better.
After 35 years she's retired, headed north to Kaitaia to a property where her own three dogs can enjoy space to run.
