Mad Paws Easter Hunt for Dogs - April 9

Sydney pooches and their two-legged plus ones are invited to Australia’s largest ever Easter hunt designed especially for dogs. 

On Sunday 9th April at Blenheim Park (Sydney), Australia’s leading pet-sitting network Mad Paws, will be hosting an Easter Hunt party with hours of fun-filled games and treats to make your dog’s dreams come true.


Reward your loyal best friend by bringing them along to this event, where they can be unleashed to run free in a specially closed off area. Kick off by letting your lovable furry friend go on an exciting doggie egg hunt before some much needed ‘me time’ with a relaxing doggie pedicure in the ‘Pooch Pedi Parlour’.

Once relaxed and looking their best, your pup can go to the pooch ‘pawtrait’ corner - to pout a pose for a picture to take home. 

If your dog is more of an adrenaline junkie, they can let loose with other like minded dogs, in the specially designed agility course.

This adorable event is hosted by Mad Paws, Australia’s largest pet sharing network, connecting pet sitters and dog walkers with busy, local pet ‘parents’.

Mad Paws has also teamed up with the Sydney Dogs and Cats Home and vet-supported retailer PETstock to ensure that this day is something that canines and their humans won’t forget in a pooch-long lifetime. All donations raised at the day will go towards the efforts Sydney Dogs and Cats Home puts into saving precious pups.

The day will finish off with a human-friendly BBQ, a massive dog Easter cake and cupcakes.

When: Sunday 9th April 2017, from 11:00am to 3:00pm

Where: Blenheim Park, North Ryde, NSW, 2113

Cost: Free

Dog Eye Injuries can be a Vet Emergency

Eye injuries in dogs and cats are common and are usually caused by trauma (such as a fight with another animal), a foreign body in the eye, infection, an inability to form lubricating tears, or an abnormality in the eye.  WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF AN EYE INJURY? Presentations for these include squinting, pawing the eye or face, watery eyes, a discharge from the eye, the eyes can look red or inflammed, the pupil size may be abnormal, or the pet simply appears uncomfortable or in pain. But when is this an emergency and when should pet owners seek veterinary help? Most injuries that appear superficial occur to the cornea. This is the outer layer of your pet’s eye. There are many very thin layers to the cornea and the seriousness of the injury depends on how many of the layers have been damaged. Injuries to the outermost layer can heal quickly with medication in little time. However, the deeper the injury, the greater the chance of scarring or blindness which often requires surgery to prev...

AWLQ Stray Animals Day Challenge - April 4

Oliver, the Staffy cross - what a difference a month makes! Animals, just like Oliver. The Staffy cross had a severe skin condition and has so far spent a month with foster carer Amelia and was at the challenge launch. “It’s amazing to see the difference in Oliver’s condition in that time,” Chris said. “This is clearly a happy dog that is enjoying a home environment while he recuperates.   “In the off-season Nicole and I would be looking to foster for AWLQ – as it’s so rewarding and makes such a difference.” Animal Welfare League Queensland continues to be a leader in animal rehoming....
