Aussie Pooch Mobile Dog Wash Blog

In the devastation of the Queensland floods, with lives lost and futures ruined, it’s easy to overlook the other victims of this tragedy.

Animals, especially pets.

Many people were unable to rescue their pets and many of those that did survive have had to be re-housed in Animal Welfare Shelters, with friends and even strangers kind enough to offer.

To help with this dire situation Aussie Pooch Mobile is now an official collection agency for the RSPCA.

Donations of cash can be made to any Aussie Pooch Mobile Operator.

Aussie Pooch Mobile will also donate 10c to the RSPCA from every dog washed until February 28. And for every new person to ‘like’ Aussie Pooch Mobile on Facebook, they will donate another 10c until February 28 - www.facebook.com/aussiepoochmobile.

Please see www.aussiepm.com.au for other fundraising activities Aussie Pooch Mobile is also involved in.

“Thousands of animals need to be re-housed so donations are essential,” says Aussie Pooch Mobile founder, Chris Taylor.

“Also, many of the animals will need after care due to the affect that wet and muddy conditions can have on animals. Apart from increased risk of fleas, mosquito bites, ticks, worms, skin infections, snake bites and heartworm, like us animals are also at risk of getting seriously ill, or even dying, from drinking contaminated water.”

“So please spare a thought for these other flood victims.”

Introducing the inaugural ‘Doggy Fantastic’ Camping and Music Weekend at Neurum Creek Bush Retreat Caboolture Qld from Friday 29 – 31 August.

 

The weekend is designed so you can learn new things but also participate in all the events and competitions for your Pooch. All Breeds are welcome.

 

Waggiest tail, most handsome dog, best trick and dog and owner look a like competition add to the fun. Participate in the Iron Dog Competition – This is a challenging event where both dog and owner can get involved.

 

Why not learn some moves with your dog and participate in the Dancing with dogs session or the obedience, trick and clicker classes.

After a big day on the Saturday your Pooch can eat out in style and join the doggy dinner put on by Royal Canin Pet Nutrition. You can then tuck your tired friend into bed and head on over to the main marquee for some World Class musical entertainment.

 

Music is on Friday and Saturday nights, auctions, sausage sizzle, coffee, tea and soft drinks are available. Wine tasting is planned for Saturday, but you will need to BYO other drinks. Face Painting for all ages is available (Dog’s Faces) colouring competitions and doggy videos all weekend.

 

The Doggy Fantastic is an approved fund raiser for Variety Qld. Aussie Pooch Mobile Dog Wash and Craig A Murray Specialist Dog Trainers have organised this event to help raise funds for an Assistance dog for a special child.
