The Adventures of Maggie

7 years ago today, I arrived in Brisbane to start my career as an Assistance Dog.

PSA: (Puppy Service Announcement)

An alarming situation has recently arisen at my favourite cafe, Cenzo's Cafe & Bar.

There has been a notable lack of the famous canine cuisine, otherwise known as Cenzo’s Doggie Treats.

I bark on behalf of my four legged community (cats excluded) for the return of the decadent treats and seek Vince’s immediate action in overturning this disastrous situation.

Surely our Local Member, Corrine McMillan MP can have the appropriate minister address this horrible scenario.

Think about it - No treats = Unresponsive Dog = No Barking at Strangers in our Driveway - it's a state crime issue.

Please bring back the treats Cenzos, if not for me but for the safety of the community.

Sincerely

Maggie May
Hungry Dog 🐶

After an afternoon of pampering, it was time to take a break and let the world just pass me by 🐶

Today is National Day for War Animals, where we acknowledge the sacrifices animals have made in service to Australia.

From the Mounted Infantry horses that braved World War I battlefields to the explosive detection dogs that served with Australians in Afghanistan, animals have played a part in every conflict our nation has been involved in.

Wear a purple poppy in recognition of the deeds and sacrifices our four-legged and feathered diggers have made and continue to make while serving alongside our troops.

People keep asking the questions, “where’s Maggie” or “what’s Maggie up to”, so now it’s time to officially announce it.

I’m retired.

After 6 years as an Accredited Assistance Dog, followed by a gap year of leisure, it’s now time to hang up the leash and enjoy retirement as a family pet.

So whilst there’s no more daily trips to shopping centres, cinemas, concerts and rides on public transport, there is the odd game of chase the possum, sunbathing and ‘playing’ guard dog 🐶.

My new past time is being spoiled with treats and receiving lots of pats.

Retirement has its benefits 🐾🦴🐾

Working dogs usually sleep outside, but it's been so cold in south-western Queensland this week, even the toughest of farmers have bent the rules.

Queensland shivered through chilly mornings this week, with Roma recording minus 2.9 degrees Celsius and Applethorpe minus 2.4 degrees on Friday.

Farmers like Andrew Underwood have been going the extra mile to make sure their pooches get a little pampering.
