The Aussie Pooch Mobile (APM) philosophy of ‘We Care’ not only relates to cleaning and caring for dogs, it is strongly tied to caring and helping the community, with APM operators throwing themselves relentlessly into many events to help raise money for charity.

A popular event is the Aussie Pooch Mobile Dog Wash Bath-a-thon. A team of operators get together and raise much needed funds for local charities, schools or clubs. People are encouraged to bring their pooch along to be washed and the proceeds are donated to the event holders.

With a long-standing affiliation with the RSPCA, APM operators in most states participate in the RSPCA Million Paws Walk, where a major dog bath-a-thon is also held. APM also provides adopted dogs with an initial discounted APM service to help their new owners establish good canine cleanliness and are actively involved in helping care for abused and rescued dogs.

APM are involved with the Animal Welfare League, Lions Hearing Dogs, Assistance Dogs and Breast Cancer Awareness and  Variety the Children’s Charity.

“I know I speak for all APM franchisees in saying that we are so fortunate to be doing something we love that we want to be able to give back to the community,” says founder, Chris Taylor.

“Over the next 12 months we plan to raise more funds through our different events for Variety including helping another child receive an assistance dog. We are also working closely with the Lions Hearing Dogs.

A past  fundraising venture was for 3-year-old Reilly Paterson from Norman Park in Queensland who has Autism. Reilly has been given a 2-year-old cross breed, Harry, who will assist Reilly in his every day life. read more...
