Get to know the region's canine characters in our new monthly pet page

The adorable and smart Milo
Likes: Having a good sniff during a walk, belly rubs, watching the rosellas above him in the trees and he enjoys munching on orange peel too! Little Austi Beach is his fave, he stays on leash and loves to sniff and soak up the fresh air and new smells too.
Dislikes: Having a bath and the flies buzzing around in summer.

Minnie from Horsley
Likes: Walks, treats, chasing the cat, humans, the water and did I say treats.
Dislikes: The wind, being told what to do, being away from humans.

Mr Devo, Thirroul
“He’s a whippet, so that’s why he’s called Devo. He’s going to be in a children’s book soon, because his mum is an author!”
Likes: “He likes everyone and everything, he likes other dogs, anything he can play with, walks, and sleeping in everyone’s bed but his own.”
Dislikes: Thunder and storms.
Indy Powell
The Powell family’s devoted and energetic blue cattle dog.
Likes: McCauley’s Beach, playing fetch, jumping waves, her people, her best doggy friend (Sarah), treats from the postie, and food!
Dislikes: Being left alone, going to the vet and bath time.

Sissy Sue, Thirroul
“Her name is Sissy Sue. Her sister was Poppy Mae, and six months later she came along, so we said ‘Sissy.’ Sissy Sue”.
Likes: “Going for little walks with her dad, mum and auntie. She’s pretty bland, but likes eating chicken, steak and little lollies and treats at night, when she’s been a good girl.”
Dislikes: “She doesn’t like dog food, and she’s not too keen on other dogs. When she was younger, we went past a couple of staffies. She took off into the rocks and ... she got a little nip on the tummy. That was when she was younger, but she’s never forgotten. She doesn’t forget anything.”
Who is the cutest pup of all?
OK, it was impossible to choose. So we threw all the dogs’ names in a hat and came up with a randomly selected champ: Congratulations, Milo! You win a $50 pet store voucher.
