3Summary
ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army
Corps, and Anzac Day falls on the 25th of April
each year. The aim of observing Anzac Day is to
remember all Australians killed in military
operations that set out to capture the Gallipoli
peninsula during World War I.
4 Why are Pets an Important Part of Anzac Day?
- While Anzac Day is celebrated to commemorate the
lives of our courageous ancestors, we pet-loving
Australians also honour the ultimate sacrifice of
our four-legged friends ancestors during these
times. - It is believed that approximately 16 million
animals were used as a part of the war effort in
World War I. Dogs, horses, donkeys, pigeons,
mules, and so many other animals that sacrificed
their lives in this war remain unappreciated. - Dogs were used to sniff out enemies and attack
enemy dogs horses were used in cavalry donkeys
were used to carry supplies canaries were used
to warn of danger and other animals were used as
mascots and companions. Each and every animal
played an influential role in the world war back
then. - VetSupply wants to remind people to reflect on
the contributions of the animals who risked their
lives in the war. Therefore, todays blog is
solely dedicated to paying tribute to these
animals.

4 Wearing Rosemary
As rosemary grows wild on the Gallipoli
Peninsula, it has special significance for
Australians on Anzac Day. It is traditionally
pinned to a coat lapel or held in place by medals
worn on the breast pockets. Rosemary is
non-toxic to dogs, cats and horses so, you can
pin rosemary to your pets collar or tie to make

5 Anzac Biscuits
During wartime, Anzac biscuits or Soldiers
biscuits were sent to the soldiers by their
friends and families. Biscuits were chosen as
they had to send foods that would remain edible
for a longer period of time. Anzac biscuits are
available in most Australian stores, but you can
also bake them up at home. This time bake Anzac
cookies with rolled oats, sugar, plain flour,
coconut, butter, etc for your pets too!
