Keeping cool on the riverside

By Ed McLeish Tammie is a 55-year-old social worker who looks after, and lives with Bax; a seven-year-old maltese who she described as a “very good little boy.” “He can sit, he can stay, he comes, he works on hand commandments,” Tammie told Southbank Local News. Tammie and Bax live in Southbank and they were out on a morning walk before the mercury became unbearable. “It’s getting a bit hot too quickly, unfortunately,” she said. In any weather, Tammie likes to take Bax to Port Melbourne Dog Beach, a place she said Bax loves to socialise. Tammie said she only fed Bax Raw K9, which is a preservative free, natural, raw dog food and treats company based in Australia.
