  • We've celebrated the cats of the sea, now it's time to celebrate the dogs 🐶 There was once a very famous dolphin in the Port River named Billie (originally spelt Billy until they realised she was a girl) who was swimming buddies with racehorses that were trained in the river. Racehorse trainer Sandy Sandford noticed she would come up to his horses every time they were there and swim circles around them and even do jumps over them. One particular day, Sandy took Rastus, a friend's labrador, out with him and his horse Brutus. Rastus couldn't wait to join the fun in the water and lept from the boat to swim alongside Billie and Brutus. Martin Jacka snapped this photo of that very day. Happy International Dog day! 🐕
  • Happy International Cat day! Charlie is donning a pirate bandana in celebration. And yes, as you can see, he loves it... #internationalcatday
