Riker AKA Nelson's story

My partner and I wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone in your team for all of the incredible work you do.

Today we celebrated 2 years since we adopted Riker (then called Nelson). We ordered a special cake from The Dogs Treats and I thought it would be nice to send through some photos for his foster mum to see

He is currently living a wonderful life on the central coast, going to the beach 3 times a week, he attends doggy daycare and is the light of our lives.

Thank you for giving him a second chance.

Warm regards,

Bianca, Jai, Ripley and Riker
