Benji and Tracey (Victoria)

I adopted Benji after Melbourne’s second lockdown in 2020. He’s two years old and 6.5 kg of pure chonk. Benji has these magnificent stud jowls that makes him look like a giant teddy bear. His foster mum told me he'd been adopted by a family several months...

Loki and SONYA (VIC)

Our kelpie was a bit anxious when we first adopted her from the RSPCA and was very scared of my husband. It turns out she'd been badly treated by a man in her first home and it took a while for her to trust my husband and not be afraid of him. Now he's her...

Nellie (Formerly Chanel) and Rene (TX)

We rescued Nellie from San Jose Animal Services the day before she was scheduled to be euthanized. This eight year old girl was found as a stray, limping from an apparently old injury that never healed properly. She was thought to have been hit by a car. She was...

Cleo and Susan (NSW)

My beautiful Cleo was surrendered to the RSPCA 2 and a half years ago as her owner had gone into care and her new owner could not handle her as Cleo was scared of people and had been left in a house with no food water or care for 2 weeks, had then been passed from...

Banjo and Victor (NSW)

I thought fostering would be a good way to see if dog ownership was right for me, before committing to buying or adopting one. DRN were recruiting new foster carers for dogs in urgent need. Banjo was found dumped in a skip bin with his body covered in callouses caused...

Gravy and Loic (Qld)

Gravy first arrived to me with a respiratory infection as well as having lost all of his friends and being a strong character. While it was not easy at first for him to get back on track as he was letting himself down. I decided to take the foster on a next step and...

Mia and Wendy (NSW)

I adopted Mia five years ago. She had been ill treated and was a very feral frightened little Pomeranian. Now she loves everyone especially children. As I live alone she has saved my sanity over the covid shutdowns. I walk her every morning at 6.30am. I just love her...

Winter and Emily (NSW)

I was assisting a surrender request who had rescued 2 rabbits from under a car on a hot summers day. The female had given birth to 3 babies. When they sent me photos I could see that the runt was weak and wasn’t going to make it. I traveled 3 hours at midnight on a...

Maycie and Carolyn (Victoria)

I first laid eyes on Maycie the blonde bombshell in October last year along with my two rescue kelpies I adopted the previous year. Maycie was a little over welmed to start with but happy enough with the boys so I went to collect her the following day. Maycie has...

Mopsy and Lydia (New South Wales)

I lost my job and previous old dog within 3 months of each other. I trawled every rescue site I could find daily. About a week after I brought home my Pet Rescue silky puppy she started throwing up violently. My sponsor said there was a parvovirus outbreak. She almost...

Miso and Chloe (Qld)

I adopted my staffy cross Miso from DARE Inc, a border collie rescue. Getting her opened my eyes to the world of rescue! The DARE team drove from Brisbane to rural NSW to collect her and her pups even though she wasn’t a border collie! To top it off she was dying at...

Hunter and Vanathy (NSW)

We had just finished fostering a paralysed French Bulldog that left us to go to Melbourne to be with her forever family. This was during Covid. After she left, I became rather subdued and was close to becoming depressed as Covid kept us cooped up. I had my two cats...
