Directors are Gregory John Symons, of Auckland, and Andrew George Taylor, of Sydney.

Wag The Dog's website shut down this morning, and cellphone numbers listed on the site had been disconnected. No details of the amount owing were available this morning.

Co-founder Tom Osborne is now working in a digital marketing role for Telecom's Skinny Mobile sub-brand, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Skinny Mobile boss Paul O'Shannessey confirmed Mr Osborne was onboard. 

"Tom is a contractor helping out on the portal," Mr O'Shannessey told NBR today.
