Mother Puppers

Dog Walk for Cancer 2026

A big THANK YOU ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Our Week 4 Team Mother Puppers walk didnโ€™t quite go to plan last weekend, but we are not letting a broken foot (yes, you read that right), get in our way โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน๐Ÿฅ

Together, Marley, Olive, Zed, Sunny, Ali and I have:
๐Ÿพ Walked an incredible 198km combined
๐Ÿ’ฐ Raised $1855 of our $2000 goal

And loved every minute!

If youโ€™ve been meaning to donate, todayโ€™s the day!
And with it being the last day of the financial year, itโ€™s the perfect time to give.

Every $ truly makes a difference!

Week 4 here we come!

Our third Team Mother Puppers walk โ˜€๏ธโ›ต๏ธ

We rounded out Week 3ย in true Team Mother Puppers style smashing out another 9.5km weekend walk on Saturday 20th June, this time exploring beautiful Wangi Wangi!

Whilst the view & company were perfection, little Miss Olive decided to turn the chaos metre up to 100/10 for us, showcasing her โ€”
๐Ÿฅท๐Ÿป Parkour skills
๐Ÿ‘‚๐Ÿป Inabity to listen
๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถ Willingness to cut across Zed & Sunny at every chance to find the best sniffs in town
๐Ÿ‚ 360 degree leash spins
๐Ÿง๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ Ability to test her Mumโ€™s patience

All whilst being lovingly cute & bringing the laughs!

Weโ€™re officially 3 weeks down, 1 to go ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿป

Donโ€™t forget to hit that donate button if you can, every $ makes a difference & we appreciate it!

Second walk complete for Team Mother Puppers ๐Ÿฅฐ

The weather turned it on this past Saturday 13th June, to round out Week 2 of Cancer Councilโ€™s 50km Dog Walk for Cancer ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

And the second group walk for Team Mother Puppers!

On Saturday,ย Olive & I, alongside Ali, Zed & Sunny walked 9.5kms along Newcastle Foreshore. Taking on Honeysuckle to the end of the Breakwall return, via Customs & Queens Wharf Hotelย ย ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿผโ€๐Ÿคโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถย 

In addition to the usual chaos of walking 3 dogs, we had to ensure:
๐Ÿธ We met the required number of margarita stops
๐Ÿด Enjoyed a delish lunch at QWH

All whilst managing an escape artist that goes by the name of Olive Moon!!

Lucky, Aunty Ali jumped right in & scooped Oli up after a kind couple asked usโ€ฆ โ€œIs this your puppy?โ€ ๐Ÿซฃ #mortified
Currently, weโ€™re still here wondering how she got out off her harness.

Oh and did we mentionโ€ฆ This was after Zed took a leap and tumble off of a sandstone block along Newcastle break wall. ย You honestly canโ€™t take us anywhere.

Chaos aside, itโ€™s all for a cause incredibly close to our hearts!

Your support means the absolute world to us, so if you could, hit that โ€œdonateโ€ button ๐Ÿ’ฐย 
As every single $ counts.

Stay tuned as Team Mother Puppers adventures in to Week 3 ๐Ÿ‘ฃ๐Ÿƒ

Our first Team Mother Puppers walk ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿผโ€๐Ÿคโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ• ๐Ÿ• ๐Ÿ•

Today, Sunday 7th June, we embarked on our first Team #motherpuppers walk. ย Starting at Speers Point Park, we completed a 10km return trip, enjoying the most delicious lunch at the Warners Bay Esplanade.

Olive, Zed and Sunny loved their first adventure, with only a little bit of chaos (lead tangles within the first 2 minutes), lots of sniff stops and plenty of pats from strangers.

Marley did decide to sit this one out, as her little 11 year old Beagle X Mini Foxie legs werenโ€™t quite up for the distance. ย But she assures us that she was cheering us on (from the comfort of) the lounge at home.

Team Mother Puppers Ali and Em, chatted the entire walk away, already planning their next walkies for the following weekend!ย 

Thank you for following along our fundraising journey, for a cause so close to all of our hearts. ย 
We look forward to updating you again next week ๐Ÿพ

Please sup-pawt us!

This June, the Mother Puppers crew โ€” Em, Ali, Marley, Olive, Zed and Sunny โ€” are stepping up for the Cancer Councilโ€™s 50km Dog Wak for Cancer ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’™

Together, weโ€™ll be hitting the pavement all month long, powered by wagging tails, happy paws and plenty of sniff breaks along the way.

Behind every walk is a cause incredibly close to so many hearts, with almost 1 in 2 Australians diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85.

For us, this challenge is about more than just kilometresโ€ฆ

Every step we take is for the people and families who have faced cancer, those currently fighting, and those who may face it in the future. ย Weโ€™re walking to help raise funds for life-saving cancer research, prevention programs, and support services that make a real difference.

If youโ€™d like to support our little pack, weโ€™d be so thankful for any donation, big or small, to help keep our paws moving throughout June. ย Because when humans and doggos come together, amazing things can happen ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿผโ€๐Ÿคโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ•ย ๐Ÿ•ย ๐Ÿ•ย ๐Ÿ•
