This wonderful Hoblers Creek off-lead dog park was a favourite for Angus. It was because of Angus [and his Launceston Westie friends] that the council were asked to install a tap and hose so that a washdown was possible after swimming in what is sometimes a very, very muddy swimming hole. Within three weeks of the request, the council installed a tap alongside a drinking fountain.
The Angus visits series. Angus has been busy visiting all sorts of locations. You may like to set the goal of finding all of Angus’ visits, so, for your convenience, there is a continually updated list in the Description of Angus visits Port Sorell [GC91B1R].
The Angus story:
Angus was my first West Highland White Terrier. He was my buddy, my navigator and my little man. He came to me when I retired and hit the road in my motor home [Mylittlebus] in 2006. He travelled all around Australia. Meeting new people every day, he was very social and loved nothing more than poking his nose into other motorhomes and caravans. Beaches were his favourite walks. He was joined by Maggie in 2016 but bonded more closely with the third addition, Mollie, six months later. Mollie was Angus' shadow. He taught her everything - how to 'come', how to 'stay', how to swim, how to navigate and much more. To this day, due to Angus' lessons, Mollie is better behaved than her older sister Maggie. Angus had the unique canine experience of having visited EVERY town in Tasmania in 2016/17. There is a hard cover photographic coffee table book “Every Town in Tassie’ in many Tasmanian and mainland homes. We tragically lost Angus at age 12 at Opossum Bay on South Arm in southern Tasmania. We miss Angus every day but he lives on in our geocaching adventures. Maggie, Mollie and I are now based in Latrobe but still travel and maintain our travel page on Facebook - TASMANIA ALL OVER.
