Today, throughout Australia, people got their pups and dogs all tarted up and raised money for the RSPCA by walking in the "Million Paws walk' . This is a "snapshot" of some of the dogs that walked in Brisbane.

Million Paws Walk is a fun day for any animal lover. Whether you’re a pet owner or not, it’s a great day out.
The main purpose of the event is raising funds and with over 144,000 animals finding shelter at the RSPCA annually, every dollar counts.

As well as the walk, there was entertainment, displays, stalls, giveaways and a host of other activities.

Million Paws Walk is a terrific day out for all and an important fundraising event for the RSPCA. Funds raised through entry fees and the sale of merchandise help assist the RSPCA to operate its animal shelters, support its Inspectorate services and provide community education on animal welfare issues.

Taking part in the Million Paws Walk is a great way to help animals in need. Each year, the RSPCA in Australia investigates more than 43,000 complaints of animal cruelty and neglect.

So, we hope you brushed off your walking shoes, pulled out your pet’s leash and brought along your “best friend” to Australia’s premier pet event.

The Million Paws Walk took place in all states and territories on Sunday 17 May 2009.
