Raven and Snoop’s happy Christmas adoption ending

Great news! Our foster puppies, Snoop and Raven, have both been adopted and will be enjoying Christmas with their new families. While they were here I spent so much time just enjoying watching them play (and enjoying not working) that it wasn't until their last night...

In memory of Trixie (2006? – 01.10.18)

I collected a pretty blue brindle dog from Hawkesbury Pound in April 2008. I'd never met her but the rescue group said she seemed like a nice dog so we offered to foster her. I dropped her at kennels to be quarantined before she could be desexed and then brought home....

Buddy and Bentley – Sydney Dog Photographer

Buddy was adopted from Fetching Dogs when he was just a baby puppy. Back in July his owner applied for my Rescued Blockheads calendar fundraiser, citing that he was a Staffy mix. I had to break it to her that he wasn't quite what I was looking for. Thankfully, because...
