They love their pooches and with  the weather fluctuating from 0 -10 degrees daily as the city transitions from winter to spring, poochs on the footpaths are sporting an amasing array of woollen and rainwear garments.

But while grass is a foreign commodity for these New Yorkers, who only know sidewalks, it’s the norm for a lucky Auckland Westie.

But if you’re “well heeled” you can purchase entry to the Soho Grand Dog Garden so your pooch can feel grass underfoot, even if it’s only 6 by 4 metre – oh so sad!
