Million Paws Walk!

I'd just like to share with you lot something I participated in yesterday.<br>It's called the RSPCA Million Paws Walk and involved tens of thousands of dogs and their owners from all over Australia walking to raise money for the RSPCA. I managed to get a ticket for my states largest one and oh my goodness, so many dogs! <br><br>Some of you may remember my dog, Charlie;<br><img src="http://i572.photobucket.com/albums/ss170/clozobozo/486850_378386075614701_687148945_n.jpg"; alt="http://i572.photobucket.com/albums/ss170/clozobozo/486850_378386075614701_687148945_n.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br>Well he's 12 and half now; deaf, has arrhythmia and multiple benign tumours, and still managed to out-walk all those young pups! <br><br>We walked the 1km course with my friend and her dog Harper, a great dane x border collie. We would have done the 4km option but Harper had somehow managed to slip out of her head halter at the beginning of the day and we worried that it would happen again (it didn't). I wish I got a photo of Charlie and Harper together because the size difference was hilarious! Harper could have easily stood over Charlie and there would still be room. <br><br>The walk managed to raise over $250,000 in NSW alone! I'm very proud to say I helped in this cause :)<br><br>If anything like this exists where you live then I highly encourage you to participate in one of these 'puppy marathons'! It's an amazing experience and if you're a dog lover like me, your heart will melt when seeing all the thousands of brilliant dogs.
