Pets of Newtown

Apr 4, 20242 min read

Grandpa - This little fella was found living on a golf course and was finally caught when he had an accidental fall into one of the on-course lakes. He wound up at the vets in front of his soon-to-be-Mum, who immediately fell in love. Conveniently for Grandpa, she is also a vet tech! Legally, because he was microchipped, Grandpa did make a trip to the pound, but as soon as his microchip hold was up - his new life began! Grandpa is about 9-10, can be a little bit nervous of men - but is a sweet and wonderful little man and he now enjoys his days being pampered and kept safe!

Pets of Newtown — Grandpa, rescued from a golf course

GhostFace Killa (Ghost) & Scottie Puppin - These guys not only have the best names we’ve possibly ever heard, they are big personalities in Newtown. Ghost is known for his BIG love, he will give that tummy up for scratch any place anywhere. He’s 4 now, and a big people person - will do tricks for some kebab meat. His brother, Scottie Puppin, isn’t so keen. He joined the pack with a bit of baggage, and prefers to cruise the quieter streets of Newtown. He loves to annoy his brother Ghost, chimkin and chasing a ball.

Cookie - AKA Cookie the Wookie, is a Pomeranian poodle (Pomapoo) whose favourite thing in the world is to explore. He follows his nose everywhere and has even been trained to scent out specific smells. He has also done agility and is an accomplished trick performer. Cookie does struggle with anxiety and being scared of things; but take him somewhere new and he forgets all that and just enjoys himself.

Cosmo - This 3 year old Inner-Westie is a Kelpie X - super affectionate, incredibly smart and all is life, literally. Being a working dog - he will chase and fetch his ball 24/7 if it was up to him! Cosmo is always at his owners side, doling out the best kisses and cuddles whenever they're needed. Good boy!

Colin - This 5 year old Greyhound considers himself a gentleman. He displays impeccable manners at all times, especially when soliciting chips from new friends at the pub. Colin’s average day includes around 22 hours of hardcore couch potatoing and one minute of speed noodling. The rest of the time he can be found politely demanding pats at Hollis Park.

Banjo - This King Charles Cavalier is one of the most handsome, and friendliest boys around!

He loves all the kisses in all the world, but not as much as he loves treats. His favourite activity is cuddling with his mummy. He may have been the runt of the litter but he has made up for that with his huge personality. Banjo turns 2 on April 2nd and likes that he was a King Charles before King Charles became King Charles! His favourite park is Sydney Park, his doggy day care is Kip Marrickville which he loves and his favourite buddy is a Staffy/Labrador rescue pup named Young Henry.
