“ LIFE INSTEAD OF DEATH ” - A NO-KILL SHELTER
Dear Readers

Welcome to our Christmas edition of the DoggieRescue
magazine. What a busy year it has been and gorgeous
kid friendly Molly is our cover girl, with beautiful eyes,
brighter than all the Christmas lights!

Some of our doggies have been wishing on a star –
read their wishes and dreams. Perhaps you can help
fulfil some of them? Tovah has taken some amazing
photos of our dogs against the backdrop of Christmas
lights. We have just received stock of our ever popular
calendars. For the first time we have professional photos

please be quick. I would not want you to miss out!
















This month read what a gift of love can do to change a
dog’s life forever. Read about King Harold of Verona, a
little debilitated old boy who was not friendly with other
dogs when he came, to being a gentle old grandpa who
relaxes now with his doggy friends in an acreage
setting. Take a look at the back cover – this is what
Christmas is all about!

We always associate special foods with Christmas.
At our Doggiewood shelter doggy dinners are served
Christmas Day as any other day. Chris one of our food
and play volunteers talks about what he gets out of
preparing and serving doggy dinners. It is done by
volunteers who are very committed to the well-being of
our dogs. After the food prep, the volunteers enjoy the
company of their favourite dogs, one on one. So
rewarding! Without volunteers like Chris our shelter
would stop functioning!

year and have made wishes for just one thing—a forever
family to love us this Christmas. All of us are bigger dogs
so can you please bring us active families?

Santa, look for the brightest star, for that is where we are!
It is shining brightly high above, on so many hearts just
bursting with love. With paws crossed...Bentley & friends

VOLUNTEER part of helping a shy or timid dog grow confidence and trust.”


Hi Readers,

My name’s Chris and I’ve been a food and play
volunteer at Monika’s for close to 4 years now. I first
applied to volunteer because my living situation didn’t
allow me to have a dog and I was fed up with the lack
of four-legged friends in my life. Looking back, I’m
really glad that was the case because it’s now turned
into a weekly joy that I wouldn’t trade for anything.
The shelter is run by a team of lovely staff, who are
supported by equally amazing volunteers, so from the
get go it is so easy to meet new friends (of all ages)
who share a similar passion and love for animals. It
really takes no time at all to feel right at home.

For the food and play volunteers, the morning
usually starts around 8:30 with our first task being
food prep. This involves preparing afternoon and
night feeds for that day, as well as the food for the
following morning. All the dogs have different dietary
requirements, so they really appreciate the extra effort
we put in to make sure their tummies are full and
happy. This usually takes about an hour and is a
great time to catch up and chat with the rest of the
volunteers, as well as the kennel hands as they
bring all the dogs out to their day yards.

DECEMBER 2019 DOGGIERESCUE.COM MAGAZINE 17



Once the food is
prepared and the dogs
are out in their yards, the
volunteers are freed up
to get involved in a
variety of enrichment
activities with the dogs.
What I like to do first is
have a walk around and
see if any of the doggies
haven’t finished their
breakfast. Another thing
I love to do is say hello
and have a cuddle/play
with all the doggies I am
already familiar with, but
also introduce myself to
the new kids on the
block. The great thing
about Monika’s is that all
the dogs have signs on
their yards outlining their
specific personalities so
you know exactly how
to approach any dog
you may not have met
before.

Hello Readers,

It is so rewarding being a DoggieRescue
lifesaver. Lifesavers provide Monika with some
degree of financial security which is paramount
in continuing to save our beautiful pets from
death row. Without lifesavers I doubt if my little
Toto would have survived. Monika rescued
Toto (formerly Noah) just hours from being put
to death 6 years ago. I feel luckier than him to
have him. He has been my constant
companion and brings me so much joy.

Let’s support this very worthy cause
by providing ongoing financial support
to save our beautiful and loving pets

Hi Fans,

Dogs are really special and need gifts
at Christmas time just like people do.
This year you can give your doggie a
special homemade gift that is not only
fun to make but ensures that your dog
gets a safe gift. I hope these are a few
gifts that your doggie will enjoy!

• Have you got an old footy sock ( or any sock will do—the
smellier the better!), place a tennis ball right at the toe end
and tie in a knot to keep the ball in place. This is a gift that
your doggie will adore ( especially if he likes to play tug of
war ) and better still—it is RECYCLED!!!!!
• Dogs really love to have a blanket all of their own to snuggle
up on. Ask mum to find some old clothes you can cut into
squares. Stitch all your squares together and overlock the
edges (Mum might help). Your dog will love his blanket with
different smells from the people he loves best in the world.
Hi Everyone, • Make him a yummy homemade Chrissie dinner with every-

VOLUNTEERS SAVOURING LIFE!


By Kim McTeigue
This year, while much of the nation
stopped for the Melbourne Cup, our team
also decided to stop, and spend the
afternoon with rescue dogs at
Doggiewood!

While some of us are regular walkers at
DoggieRescue, for others it was their first
visit, so the lovely Cynthia greeted us and
told us all about the shelter before arranging
for us to walk some dogs! Between us we
walked Avery, Hector, Lily, Gideon, and
Primrose; and we enjoyed it as much as
they all seemed to!

When we returned to the shelter we spent
some time in the Freedom Dog Park with the
most loving and exuberant Dot and her more
timid but just as beautiful friend Apollo.

THE MUZZLE THE MUZZLE
Written by: Bas de Leeuw

Each Friday when I walk the dogs at Monika’s,
I’ll always post photos and videos of our
adventures on Facebook so that potential
adopters can see these beautiful dogs in action.
Some of the dogs I walk wear muzzles, and
quite often someone will write, “Why does the
dog wear a muzzle?” Well, in this article, I’ll
answer the question, and I’ll also provide some
general information about muzzles.

First though, I need to clarify something
important. I’m not a dog behaviour expert,
and I’m certainly not an expert in muzzles.
I’m simply a dog lover and dog owner who
loves walking/running/adventuring with rescue
dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments.

If you’re thinking about adopting a dog that
wears a muzzle, and you have some specific
questions, it’s best to refer these questions
to the wonderful kennel hands at Monika’s,
who are the friendly experts in all things to
do with dogs.
W
WHY DO THE DOGS WEAR MUZZLES? HY DO THE DOGS WEAR MUZZLES?
WHY DO THE DOGS WEAR MUZZLES? WHY DO THE DOGS WEAR MUZZLES?
The short answer is, to stop them from biting. The long
answer is, for most of the dogs I walk, the muzzle is purely a
precaution, and they rarely show any desire to bite either
people or other dogs. Sadly, many rescue dogs have come
from situations where they may have been abused, neglected,
poorly socialised, or all of the above. If the kennel hands at
Monika’s are unaware of the dog’s history, the dog’s
behaviour can give important clues to their past. For example,
some dogs are wary of women. Some dogs are cautious
around men. Some dogs bark and lunge at other dogs. The
kennel hands take these clues seriously, and always err on
the side of caution.

The muzzle is also a great way of deterring other dog
owners and the general public from approaching.
Unfortunately sometimes people greet your dog without “ A muzzle is also great if you’re just not sure

temperaments, and they absolutely love to be
patted and give cuddles. They are not ‘aggressive
dogs’ in nature, however, they may show
aggression to other dogs. And as explained, that’s
why they wear the muzzle, purely as a precaution.
• The muzzle does not restrict breathing,
drinking or panting

There are many muzzles on the market. The ones
at Monika’s are made of a high-quality malleable
material that provides maximum comfort, while
providing absolute protection. All the dogs can
breathe easily with the muzzle on. The gaps are
wide enough that they can pant, drink and even
give slobbery kisses; but they’re small enough that
they simply cannot clamp down on anything.

“We still treasure the magazine Brie was featured in,
and the one where she was the cover girl!” Tim

The original photo of her and Lily below left) was
taken the day we picked her up from Monika’s. It was
Lily’s 7th birthday, June 27 2010. ( Years earlier we’d
told Lily it was against the law to have a dog before
you’re 7 ). This photo appeared in the November
2010 issue of DoggieRescue Magazine. The photo
on p32 was taken in November 2019, exactly on the
same spot in Balmain, but nine years later.

Brie’s having a great life here in Balmain where she’s
known as a “Bearded Balmain Terrier”. Dozens of
people have admired her and been told of her origins
at Monika’s, and we’ve encouraged many folk to
consider a rescue dog over the years. She really is
the most loving, calm and happy dog, and we can’t
imagine our family without her. We are very grateful
to Monika.

Merry Christmas from Tim, Michelle, Lily and Brie

A n I n t e r v i e w It took me a while to make friends with
you—what should people know when they
are coming to meet you? I'm nervous, its

Interviewer: Jen Barbour not my fault something scared me before
I came here and it takes me a while to
warm up to people. Be gentle and kind and
W i t h Z E U S I will realise you are a good person, I'm
worth the effort I promise! Things you take
for granted are a little scary to me like new
situations, new people, power tools, loud
noises and fast movements. I'm hoping my
human is out there and can come with me
on this journey and show me these things
are OK.

Any fun facts we should know? When I get
really excited I scoot my legs up under my
bum and GO! Everyone thinks its funny
and I like making people laugh.

If you had a wish for Christmas what
would it be? I need someone who will
keep me safe from the things that scare
me, and slowly introduce me to the world.
I have spent a while at DoggieRescue, I’m
a bigger doggy and quite nervous. I hope
someone will see past my fear and realise
what a gentle, sweet boy I am. Once I like
you I ’m very affectionate and really lovely.
I give cheeky kisses when I think you are
not looking! I want to find someone who is
patient, kind and understanding.

Zeus Mastiff x 6yrs 28.6kgs Male


Merry Christmas Zeus—what are you planning for the big day?
I'm hoping to have found my home by then. I've waited a long time
and I'm a good boy, surely Santa will find my family? If I'm still here
we have a lovely day, get tasty treats, cuddles from the volunteers
and a new toy!

Are you a runner or a walker? I prefer to wander along, sniff the
smells, explore what is going on. I prefer quiet bush tracks to busy
roads.

What do you like to do during the day? I have a friend here at
DoggieRescue I walk well with her if we go out with volunteers but
otherwise she tries to teach me to play. If it’s hot we lie around and
snooze. Monika says I would suit a full time worker as I'm quite
happy in my own company! But I do love when a friend comes to Sponsor:“ Wishing Zeus a very happy
visit, I do adore the kennel hands but I'd like a human all of my own. Christmas!” Hughie Wray
