Karen Rhodes pictured with Greg Paton at the Wednesday night meeting She is President of the Dogs Refuge and is was a great advocate for the dogs rescue bringing warmth and humour to her presentation. She told us the stories with a lot of love and compassion and we learnt about dogs with separation anxiety – individual personalities and close friendships, both with humans and other canines. The Refuge has been in existence for 80 years and is one of the oldest in Australia. Over 1,000 dogs went through their hands last year and they are a pro-life centre meaning they will give the dogs every possible change of being adopted and finding a new home even if it takes years. A very careful assessment is made before a dog is available for adoption and they match each dog to a family with the correct circumstances. They work closely with council pounds around Perth. Over 180,000 dogs are euthanized in Australia each year and she feels that a contributing factor is that puppies are available in pet shops. In the UK sale of dogs and puppies is much more strictly controlled and with a much larger population 20,000 dogs are euthanized. Please make sure you sterilize your dogs. The Refuge needs assistance. A generous donor gave them two vans which was wonderful and when Red Dog (Koko) died they received $42,000 in donations. Their web site is www.dogshome.org.au and they have a facebook page as well – please share these contacts and remember that all donations are tax deductable. ... See MoreSee Less

Beanie and Socks Night. It was great to see so many members at our last meeting bringing in beanies and socks to help those in need on these cold nights. The donated items will be shared between St Patrick’s, Sista’s Place and Wesleylink. We also had Marina from the Freo Street Doctor as our guest speaker. The Freo Street Doctor is a mobile medical health service that provides an easily accessible health care service to disadvantaged and homeless people in Fremantle and the surrounding community. The service provides over 2000 consultations each year. This topic was particularly relevant to our meeting theme. The meeting was our “Socks and Beanies Night”. We all brought in socks and beanies to donate to people in need. One box was full to overflowing with beanies of all shapes, colours and sizes and another box was filled with socks. ...

Our Guest Speaker for the 18th of June 2014 was Peter Warren who is the representative in Australia for the Mukti Mission which looks after girls and women in India where they do not necessarily have a good life. Until recently a young widow was expected to commit Sati – join her dead husband on his funeral pyre - and if she refused she was outcast. Girls are not valued in some families and the child is left to die or abandoned. Some poor families simply cannot afford to raise another child – especially a female. The mission provides a place of hope and shelter for these women and children where many live and work all their lives. ... See MoreSee Less
