Petstock Foundation helps grant life-changing pet wishes

Partner in Paws

Petstock Foundation has generously committed $250,000 to help grant pet-related wishes to children living with critical illnesses across the country.

Take a closer look at the magic of this partnership in action.

Isla’s Wish: A Story of Hope and Joy

The impact of pet wishes is beautifully illustrated through Isla’s journey.

Diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia at three years old, Isla’s wish was to have a curly-haired puppy she could call her best friend.

Isla’s wish came true in 2023 when Daisy, her adorable wish puppy, joined the family. Daisy has brought joy, laughter, and love to Isla and her family every day since.

"Isla’s wish gave us something to look forward to. A beautiful light at the end of the tunnel. After so much time apart, it helped us come together as a family and enjoy a positive experience together. And our puppy helps that happen over and over again everyday,” shared Isla’s mum, Pamela.

We’re honoured to support Make-A-Wish in granting pet-related wishes for children facing unimaginable challenges. We know the transformative power of pets in people’s lives.

Bringing Comfort and Connection When it's Needed Most

Together, Make-A-Wish Australia and the Petstock Foundation are committed to creating positive, life-long memories for children facing critical illnesses—and their new companions.

In addition to their incredible financial contribution, the Petstock Foundation will provide wish families with essential pet care products through local Petstock stores, ensuring that every new family member (whether they are fluffy, scaley, or winged) is welcomed into a loving, well-prepared home.

This partnership strengthens our Wish Force and enables us to grant even more pet wishes, bringing comfort and connection to children and families when they need it most.
