Puppy Love!

April 14th, 2011 by Anthea | 6 Comments | Filed in Stuff

Hi Girl Powerettes and dog lovers!

Do you heart your dog? Well we’ve come across some funny dog stats that will make you smile!

Aww, this dog looks pretty happy!

A recent PawClub survey of Aussie dog owners found:

  • 52% sign greeting cards from their dogs at Christmas time!
  • 73% spend more time with their dog than with their parents or other relatives. Wow!
  • 51% of Aussies walk their dog everyday, but 44% admit they don’t walk their dog as much as they’d like to. Uh oh!
  • The majority of women spend more money on their dog than their partner! LOL!

See your doggy stats by postcode at www.heartyourdog.com.au!

So girls, now you’re on school holidays, are you spending lots of time with your dog? Tell us how you like to pamper your puppy!

We can’t wait to hear from you!

Hi Girl Powerettes!

Woof woof! We’ve just had word of a paw-some event taking place around the country over the next few weeks!

It’s being hosted by PawClub (www.pawclub.com.au), a website we click on a little too often here at GP HQ (shhh! don’t tell on us!) It gives you lots of doggy info that will help you be the perfect pup owner! PawClub wants to test how much you heart your dog, so they’ve got a travelling dog pod road show heading up the east coast of Aus!

The dog pods will be visiting dog parks with surveys, a free sausage sizzle, a goodie bag for dog-owners, plus there will be a vet there to answer all your questions!

Check out the dates below:

Sunday 30th January - Melbourne – Gilpin Park, BRUNSWICK: 9am-12pm with Dr Ark. [Pearson St end]

Sunday 6th February - Sydney – Rowland Reserve, BAYVIEW (Northern Beaches) 9am-12pm with Dr Higgins.

Saturday 12th February - Sydney – Hawthorne Canal Reserve, LEICHHARDT 9am-12pm with Dr Ark.

Saturday 19th February – Canberra – Lake Tuggeranong District Park, GREENWAY 9am-12pm with Dr Ark. [Off Drakeford Drive, on Mortimer Lewis Drive]

Here at the Girl Power office, we’re crazy for cute, cuddly animals! We’re super duper lucky at GP HQ ‘coz we all have pet dogs- Mel has a German Shepherd/Husky called Toby, Amy has a Silky Terrier/Maltese Terrier called Sally, Nat has a Maltese/Mini Fox Terrier called Mookie and I have a German Short Haired Pointer called Max. Aaaw!

Tell us- what kind of pet do you have and what’s the cutest thing he/she has ever done?

Leave a comment below OR you can email us at girlpower@next.com.au with the subject line I Heart My Pet and attach a photo of your pet for a chance to be in the next issue of Girl Power!
