This June, Marley and Olive are lacing up their imaginary sneakers and leading the way as we take on the Cancer Council’s 50km Dog Walk for Cancer challenge 🐾

Sadly, almost 1 in 2 Australians will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85, which means this cause touches so many families, friends and loved ones.  

This month, with every wagging tail, walkies, new adventures and extra-long sniff stops (Beagle X problems), we’ll be putting one paw in front of the other to help make a difference.  

Every kilometre Marley, Olive and I walk is for everyone who has heard, or one day may hear, the words “you have cancer”.  Every dollar raised will help fund life-saving cancer research, prevention programs and essential support services for people impacted by cancer.

If you’re able to donate, we’d be so grateful for your support in helping keep our little paws moving.
Together, humans and pups alike, we can help tackle cancer, one step at a time 💛💙

A big thank you to our most recent donators. We really appreciate the support!

We are now only $314 from reaching our $1000 goal 🙌🏻

If you’ve been meaning to donate, today’s the day!
And with it being the last day of the financial year, it’s the perfect time to give.

Every $ truly makes a difference!

Thank you to everyone for your support along the way! It means the world 🧍🏼‍♀️🐕 🐕
You are all AMAZING!

🧡 Em, Marley and Olive xox

Day 24 • WE DID IT 🎈🎈

Thursday 25th Jun
50/50kms complete 🥳
Over $500 raised so far 🥹 But we’re not stopping there!

Marley, Olive & I are continuing to put our paws to the pavement for the rest of June, to see just how many kms we can get in, and…

To reach our target goal of $1000!

A BIG thank you to everyone who has donated so far, we appreciate it so much 🙌🏻💙💛

The Cancer Council’s 50km Dog Walk for Cancer Challenge in June has so far raised over $870,000!

Every donation helping to fund life-saving cancer research & support services for the nearly 1 in 2 Australians affected by cancer.

A donation as a little as $5-10 can make a difference! 

If you’d like to support us, we’d be so incredibly grateful 🧍🏼‍♀️🐶🐶

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Spot the Ducks!

Spot the ducks 🦆🦆🦆🦆👀🤣

Making friends with the neighbourhood animals along the way!

Thursday 25th Jun
Week 3 update 👉🏻 As of Sunday 21st June, we officially hit 45/50km for Cancer Council’s 50km Dog Walk for Cancer Challenge 💙💛

And over $300 in donations! 

Alongside our daily neighborhood walks, we finished up the week smashing out another 9.5km weekend walk with Team Mother Puppers, this time exploring beautiful Wangi Wangi.

We’re now 3 weeks down, with 1 to go 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏻🐕🐕🐕🐕

Weekday Walks 👣🐶 🐶

Monday 15th Jun
Rain, hail, windy or shine… We keep on track with our weekday neighbourhood walks!

Those 2km walks around the block really do add up, and the girls absolutely love their new roles as “neighbourhood watch” 👀

So far… We’ve spotted horses, birds and even a bunny rabbit 🐴🐥🐰

Day 15 • 33/50kms complete #dogwalkforcancer

Week 2 • 31/50kms complete 🙌🏻

Monday 15th Jun
Another big week of paws hitting the pavement!

The weather really turned it on over the weekend, to round out Week 2 of Cancer Council’s 50km Dog Walk for Cancer 💙💛

In addition to our (almost) daily 2km neighbourhood laps during the work week, on Saturday we enjoyed one big long walk with Team Mother Puppers 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏻🐶🐶🐶

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 Hotel 🏨

In addition to the usual chaos of walking 3 dogs, we had to ensure:
🍸 We met the required number of margarita stops
🍴 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… “Is this your puppy?” 🫣 #mortified

Currently, I’m still here wondering how she got out off her harness, but also 100% ready for the week ahead!

Your support means the absolute world to us, so if you could, hit that “donate” button.  As every single $ counts.

Stay tuned as we adventure in to Week 3 👣🍃

Time to “Strut our Stuff”!

Tuesday 9th Jun
Within the first couple of days, the chaos of twisting leads got the better of Mum 😵‍💫🐕 🐕

Enter… Leash splitter and new lead.  Now our paws are going to be hitting the pavement like we own it #gamechanger

One happy Mother Pupper!

20/50km now complete 💙💛

Week 1 • 18/50kms complete 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Tuesday 9th Jun
We eased in to Days 1, 2, 3 and 4 with a nice and easy 2km lap around the neighbourhood each day.  Filled with plenty of sniffs, pats from neighbouring doggos, horses and even some bunny rabbits.

Days 5, 6 & 7 consisted of one big long walk with our besties, and other half of Team Motherpuppers Ali, Zed and Sunny 💙💛

On Day 7 we took on a mighty 10km return trip from Speers Point Park to Warners Bay Esplanade. Enjoying the most delish lunch at Home At The Bay…

And we may have indulged in a sneaky Margarita & Copenhagen icecream to top it off 🍨

This is 1,000,000% what you call making the most of the long weekend, all whilst doing it for a cause so incredibly close to many of our hearts!

Olive, Zed and Sunny loved their first adventure together, with only a slight bit of chaos (lead tangles within the first minute 😅😵‍💫😝), 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 weren’t quite up for the distance.  But she assured us that she was cheering us on from the comfort of the lounge at home.

So far Marley, Olive & I have raised $182 out of our $1000, and Team Mother Puppers has raised a whopping $1100 out of their $2000 goal 🥹

1 week down, 3 to go #letsdothis
