Would be nice to have some more open minded people." Submitted by Samantha Hartley

"My best friend." Submitted by Beck McCallum

"I work with pounds and see daily the lost, the abandoned and the neglected. I see dogs too afraid to interact, too angry to pat and so happy they must be oblivious of their circumstances. I see dogs go home, dogs being adopted and dogs going to rescue, and sometimes I see good dogs die. Dogs that had a chance to be something more than a kennel number, but somewhere along the line they were let down. Some people refer to them as 'Just dogs.' but I often wonder how we can see that as less when being 'just dogs' means to be the truest and purist form of honesty. I've studied dog behaviour and it's a known fact that dogs are incapable of deception. Dogs are born honest and die telling the truth. To be 'just a dog' would be something we should all aim to be." Submitted by Hannah Orr

"My 3rd daughter Bonnie Bell." Submitted by Julie Bell

"Black and tan dog is my best mate of all time, Nike, 11 year old. I wouldn't change him for the world. He has been in a war or 10, several trips to the vet and he still is with me every day. Cream kelpie bitch, Kow, 15 months old. Trainee all rounder. She probably has dog adhd but is still my best friend and i wouldn't change her for the world. Kow amazes me everyday and just goes the next level with working and not to mention making her own fun. Definitely 2 special dogs that are my life and career." Submitted by Robyn Armstron

"Here are two photos of Bonnie. Shes pretty handy on sheep but also provides agronomic advice!!" Submitted by Liz Summerville

"George: We adopted this Kelpie X Coolie after he decided he didn't really want to act like a sheep dog. Rather than round up sheep, George preferred to lay under a tree and watch his brothers and sisters do all the work. As soon as I heard this, I knew he was my spirit animal 💕." Submitted by Keira Jane

"Charlie: This adorable Cavoodle is our family dog! He gives the best cuddles and enjoys being spoilt by his humans. Earlier this year, Charlie took himself on an adventure and became very well known by Wagga citizens on Facebook as they helped us find him. So glad we got him back 💕." Submitted by Keira Jane

"Billie-Blue (8month old blue kelpie) and her adopted sister Charli-Brown ( 10 week old red kelpie X). The sweetest little girls but double trouble when they are left on their own too long. They bring a new kind of crazy to our household as well as lots of love and a huge amount of fun! Love these two 💕." Submitted by Tania Smith

"This is Juno. More human than dog, she loves nothing better than being around people. She gets a lot of attention everywhere she goes, which is just the way she likes it!" Submitted by Lauren Hinton
