Jetpets is proud to help out charities that give everything they can to help out those less fortunate than us; this may come in the form of fur, feathers or fins. The lovely team at PetRescue is one of those charities that we love to assist. PetRescue is a non for profit charity that helps find new homes for lost and abandoned pets.
PetRescue was founded in 2003 by three animal loving friends, Shel, Vicki and JB. They help home more than 25,000 pets every year thanks to the listings that they provide on their website. They have to date relocated a phenomenal 73,264 pets across Australia.
They do an amazing job every single day; the team has expanded to 2 offices in Melbourne and one in Perth. With the founding three team members still doing the fantastic job they started.
Jetpets along with the help of our lovely friends at Virgin Blue help PetRescue move pets across Australia, One of our domestic consultants Chris, who deals with most of the PetRescue bookings says “The favourite part of my job is helping Pet Rescue out. To help these pets that are in need is fantastic, and the people at Pet Rescue are always patient and helpful with any request!”
These three dogs were re-homed by PetRescue along with the help of Jetpets and now live wonderful, love-filled lives.
ROBBIE JUNIOR
Robbie Junior is a 12 month old blue cattle boy who secured
a donated flight in May this year. Robbie Jnr is a
rescue originally from Canberra pound and has been
adopted by a lovely new family, who had another rescue dog
for Robbie Jnr to befriend. They are now best friends and go
on daily walks together for an hour and play ball in a large
park opposite their house, where they also socialise with
other dogs. Robbie Jnr’s life couldn’t be much better!
ABBY
After already being rehomed 3 times, little Abby was
finally relocated to her new, and permanent home in
Adelaide in June of this year. As you can see from
her gorgeous jacket, Abby is now being taken care of
like the little queen she is! She loves cuddles with
her new parents - especially when they have movie
night and she snuggles on the couch with them.
HOLLY
Holly is a blue cattle dog (right) with a bit of a rough past.
Scared and uncertain, rather than openly friendly, Holly
would not normally have been a rehoming candidate, but 4
weeks after completing a rehabilitation program in the ACT,
Holly was friendly with dogs, cats, birds, loved people and
had learned to be polite with young children. Clearly ready
for a new start, Holly now resides on acreage in the Adelaide
Hills with the lovely couple and their 2 existing cattle dogs.
Here you can see the whole family enjoying Christmas
together!
Jetpets will continue to be a great supporter of PetRescue and will endeavour to help give these animals a second chance in life. For more information on adoption, volunteering and donation please visit the PetRescue webpage www.petrescue.com.au
