Cosmolo, I think your inbox must be full as I couldn't send you a PM. I will try again later. Thanks so much for developing this wonderful resource. Anne

I saw the following listing on gumtree for a free dog kennel which appears to be in very good condition. Click here for link to listing on gumtree The dimensions of the kennel are 2m long, 63cm wide and 50cm high. The openings are each 20cm x 34cm, so most suitable for small to medium sized dogs. Apparently the kennel is solidly constructed of a material that makes it well insulated, so it stays cool in summer and warm in winter. PLEASE NOTE: I am not the person offering this kennel, so please contact that person through the gumtree listing. Hopefully a foster carer will be able to make good use of this great kennel. Anne

"Laika" on DOL (who is from Sydney) has also rescued Keeshond's sometimes. Anne

Beth, do you have to reside in the Penrith Municipality to get your animals chipped for free? Is there a limit to numbers (if you are a rescue group)? Anne

So good that you acknowledge your family's rescue efforts. I often feel as though my children are unsung heroes. I made sure they received recognition by getting a "pet care" badge at cubs. They were supposed to do a little research project on vaccinations etc relevant to looking after dogs, but they knew it all off by heart and they are only 8 and 10 years old. They give up a time with me and a lot of emotional energy for the dogs we have rescued. When I am at the end of my tether, and they must be close to it too, they say, "please just help that one, mum", knowing all the repercussions that entails. Thanks kids (and our long suffering resident dog, Charlie)!! ;)

I can't attest to the correctness of this information but thought I would share it in any case. I read the following on facebook Anne
