Is it perhaps an obvious choice like Skippy, or maybe the dog that says "bugger" on the TV Commercial for Toyota Hilux? Is it Simpson's Donkey or the Dog on the Tuckerbox? Phar Lap, Mr Percival from Stormboy (my personal favourite!) or Fatso the Wombat from A Country Practice? What about Matilda the Boxing Kangaroo?

What about the Kookaburra sitting on the Old Gum Tree?
ReplyDeletedefinately think you should have included Sam the Koala, she won many hearts in Victoria and is a symbol of hope for all those affected by last years terrible bush fires. The photo of her holding the hand of the CFA volunteer while she drank from his bottle of water is deeply etched into people's hearts and can still bring a tear to one's eye.
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous, you are right, in that Sam the Koala really did capture our hearts.
