HELP ID 2 Golden Oldie Qld FLOOD Dogs ! URGENT !!

 UPDATE !!
next day - Jan 19th

Black Labrador "Comet" has been reunited with his owner !
A man in ENGLAND saw how we (anipals) were all tweeting about 2 unidentified Queensland flood rescue dogs.  The man's cousin in Brisbane had just lost everything he owned in the Qld floods.   The Brisbane family were distraught when their 12 year old "Comet" panicked and broke free during evacuation, never to be seen again.  The weeping owner said they didn't care about the house or the cars or possessions, they just wanted their dog back.  With "Comet", they had a reason to keep going.  Today they were reunited, amongst a flood of 'happy' tears !!
Comet's owners are eternally grateful to each single one of you who RT'd the tweet !!  You have given them a reason to rebuild their lives.  Congratulations Twitterverse !

Kelpie-cross girl dog still searching for her owner !
She is not doing well; fretting and frail.  She may be older than 12 years and has an arthritic hip.  She swam for her life and deserves every chance she can get to be reunited with her owner too.
PLEASE keep RT-ing this blog site until we find her owner, who obviously does not know she is still alive! 

Prior to Update: 
These beautiful Golden Oldie dogs were both plucked from raging torrents of water during the Queensland Floods, Australia.   Although rescued in separate locations, they were swimming for their lives when dragged to safe ground. 
Qld Flood survivor Golden Oldies looking for owners
They were taken to RSPCA Brisbane, but then transferred to @AWLQ, Gold Coast.  Neither of them have any identification.  They are both Golden Oldies, over 8 years old.  

Although they are doing their best "cute face" for the camera, they are both quite traumatized.  And really missing their owners!  
The black Labrador is a boy, and the Kelpie cross is a girl.   They both appeared well cared for, which means their owners would be distraught incase they had drowned.  

If you know either of these 2 dogs:  contact either myself, @PepiSmartDog, or @AWLQ (The Animal Welfare League Queensland), immediately!   These dogs only have days left before being put up for  adoption.  AWLQ want to give these pets every opportunity to be reunited with their "Forever Family" before making any further decisions. 

Please RT this blog link to anyone you think may be Australian.  Someone has to know who they are!

A Pet's 10 Commandments

A PET'S 10 COMMANDMENTS, to help make their life a quality life:


1.  My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years.  Any separation from you is likely to be painful.


2.  Give me time to understand what you want of me.


3.  Place your trust in me.  It is crucial for my well being.


4.  Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment.  You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I only have you.


5.  Talk to me.  Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.


6.  Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.


7.  Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.


8.  Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me.  Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.


9.  Please take care of me when I grow old.  You too, will grow old.


10.  On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please.  Never say you can't bare to watch.  Don't make me face this alone!  Everything is easier if you are there, because I love you so.




Take a moment to thank God for your pets.  Enjoy and take dog care of them.  Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience without God's critters!
We do not have to wait to be surrounded by hope, love, and joyfulness.  It is here on earth and has four legs!
