This is your chance to win one of five Australian Fortress Waterproof dog coats designed by Dog Bless You for your pooch! The cooler months are here and despite having a fur coat, our dogs - especially short-haired breeds and senior dogs - do feel the chill and may be reluctant to head outside for their daily walk or a romp in the park!

Melbourne dogs have been spoilt with the arrival of The Canine Wellness Kitchen , a food truck offering a gourmet menu catering especially for them! Co-founders Katie Crandon and her partner Laura Yeomans launched their food truck at the Hank Marvin Market in St Kilda last year after identifying a gap in the market. They were already running a healthy pet food business but found that our canine friends - including their Cocker Spaniel Freddie - were missing out on the “dining out” experience even when they were accompanying their owners.  "The idea [behind the dog food truck] is, you come to the truck, buy yourself a meal and a beer and the dog can enjoy the same food as what you're eating." says Ms. Crandon. The food truck serves a range of raw and dehydrated snacks made from “human-grade ingredients”. Meat and offal are sourced from reputable butchers whilst the fresh vegetables used are grown in their garden at home.  Our mission is “to get healthy food to pet owners...

The stars of this exhibition are her three dogs: Simon (a British Bulldog), Garfunkel (a French Bulldog ) and Henri (a Wired Dachshund ) who have already amassed a 100,000-strong social media fan base after their owner began posting quirky pics of her pups on Facebook. Simon and Garfunkel playing Monopoly - Photo (and above): Serena Hodson “I love my gorgeous dogs to bits and started posting my pics of them just for fun,” said Ms Hodson. “Suddenly my art went viral as an army of fans in US, Germany, the UK and even Brazil went barking mad for my dogs. “I think it’s because I show the individual personality of my pets. Simon is grumpy but sweet, Henri is always happy and sees the silver lining in every day, while Garfunkel loves to be the centre of attention.” “For many years it’s been just a hobby but the popularity of my family po...
