Best Friends Walk 2026

Honouring Max & Helping Homeless Pets Find Love

If I sent this to you, it's because Max touched your life and/or we have connected in a shared love of furry family members. 

I have never done anything like this before but have been so heartbroken since losing my little boy and wanted to do something to honour him in gratitude for all he did for me. So I'm taking part in PetRescue’s Best Friends' Walk to raise money to help homeless pets find a loving home. 

I appreciate times are tough, and this is an ambitious goal, but I chose this number as Max was shy of 17 when I lost him. 

Please feel no obligation and rest assured I take no offence if this is not something you are interested in. Equally, any donation you feel called to share to help homeless animals find the loving home they all deserve would be so very much appreciated (all donations over $2 are tax-deductible). Thank you for your generosity.

Please feel free to share with anyone you know who loves and wants to support homeless animals.

Furever grateful,
Max (in spirit) & Suzanne


From PetRescue

When it launched in 2004, the PetRescue website was the first of its kind in Australia, and since then, it has been the connection for over 930,000 rescue pets and their new families. 

PetRescue’s adoption platform gives pets the best chance to find a home by bringing thousands of homeless pets face-to-face with tens of thousands of potential adopters every day. And the best part is, all PetRescue website services and adoption support programs are free and accessible to all rescue members and pet lovers alike. 

Please suppawt us as we walk to recognise the bond we share with our furry family members and help find a home for every pet that needs one!
