About Me

My photo
Perth/Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia
An independent, working woman, I live in a riverside suburb close to both Fremantle and Perth. Having lived in Perth for over thirty years it's obvious that I love the place, though there are still things that irritate and make me squirm with embarrassment. Occasionally they will make an appearance; but generally speaking this is a pretty good place to live.

Million Paws

The RSPCA held its annual fund raiser, "Million PawsWalk", in South Perth this morning.  Thousands of dog lovers and their four footed canine companions chose to walk or not walk dependent on the dog and its owner a 2km or 5km trail along part of the beautiful Swan River.

The weather was splendid and perfect for this Sunday morning jaunt.  One assumes that at $20, per adult the very worthy RSPCA raised a significant amount.

 All shapes and sizes, dogs and people streamed up and down and I didn't see or hear a single growl or cross word....amazing behaviour from all those Chardy and I came across.  Oh yes my trusty 9 year old goldie came along too.

Hey about time
I turned around,
don't you think?





See,  I made it........








I just had to include this gaggle of.....possibly not the right collective, but these English Mastiffs were magnificent.

Post Script.....
A sum of A$350 000 was mentioned that evening on the news....not bad for a Sunday morning walk
