59-year-old Andrew Taylor of Kaiapoi, New Zealand noticed one day when he was out with his dog a severe lack of sticks in their neighborhood park, so he decided to do something about it.
Taylor began chopping up excess branches of trees in his backyard and built a "stick library" for all the dogs in his neighborhood.
Taylor hosted a little "inauguration party" for the Stick Library, where 50 neighborhood dogs were able to give it a spin for themselves.
Taylor's daughter Tayla Reece told Good News Network, "As people started to arrive, there was a disbelief of how simple the idea was, but it's one of those ideas no one had thought of. All the dog owners appreciate it, as they all have experienced the 'good stick search', which isn't always fruitful. It's an idea that just makes sense to them."
