Saffron on the Hill Market Stall!

Saffron on the Hill Market Stall

Poppet looking after the stall at Yarragon!

Today we looked after the Saffron on the Hill market stall at Yarragon Craft Markets and we met lots of great dog owners and lots of rescue pugs! It was wonderful to raise more awareness about puppy farms and some much needed funds for our rescue dogs.

If you think you could commit to a monthly market stall to help raise funds for the rescue dogs of Saffron on the Hill, please contact lauren@thehill.org.au. Saffron on the Hill are always looking for reliable, hardworking volunteers.

If you would like to subscribe to the Saffron on the Hill newsletter and find out what markets our stall visits each month and other ways we fundraise, please email shannon@thehill.org.au to be placed on the mailing list (newsletter is emailed monthly).

And finally! If you are not a Victorian resident, but read our blog (we love you too!) you don't have to miss out! Our collars, leads and harnesses are available online @


Fun in the Sun at Yarragon Craft Markets

Ballan Spring Rally & Market




Spring heralds the birth of new life and is a welcomed break from the cold winter weather. The coming of the warmer days also signifies the continued dog breeding season when many thousands of puppies will be born in puppy factories. Breeding bitches have an average of two breeding seasons a year unlike their wild ancestors that only breed when food and resources are plentiful.


As much as we love and adore baby animals and love all that spring brings with it, we must stop and give thought to the thousands of breeding bithces and dogs locked away in puppy factories. These parents along with their puppies won't get to enjoy the feel of the spring time grass under their feet or feel the sun on their backs. They will once again spend the entire spring locked away as prisoners in concrete floored wire cages.



This injustice just can't continue. We cannot allow the proposed Ballan puppy factory to open. We will continue our fight. Please join us at the Ballan market to spread the word about puppy factories and the importance of desexing your pets. Make your banners and cards with a spring time theme showing your anger and outrage at puppy factories.

Seddon Deadly Sins ~ Seddon

148 Victoria Street
Seddon 3011
(03) 9689 3092



Forgive me Father, for I have sinned.

Yes, in the form of buttermilk pancakes with white chocolate, mascarpone, macadamia ganache and strawberries. My sweet tooth veritably satisfied!


We are guilty as sin of trying other pancake specials here as well.....the special below featured grilled pineapple and was like Tropical North Queensland on a plate! Divine! In a devilish kind of way!



For those more savoury inclined, the Eggs Florentine came with a few extras today. 

Is that sausage for me?!

This was a feature on the infamous specials board at Seddon Deadly Sins. I’m not sure of the last time I ordered off the real menu (which might I add,  the menus are contained within random covers of Golden Books).


Another form of sin ~ not blogging prior to now, about this breakfast ‘institution’ in the heart of Seddon. Some places you just want to keep to yourself you know? But we couldn’t keep this one under wraps any longer. We are prepared to share the love, and wait in future for one of the exclusive front tables, if it means other dog lovers on the Westside get their pooches out and about with them ;)

I love going out for brunch!

Just a few shops up you will find Dog Diversity. We quickly dropped in here to get some doggy treats. The girls had yoghurt and carob tarts so we all gorged on sweets together.


 For more information about Dog Diversity, please visit our post via the link below:


Back to Seddon Deadly Sins, this café dares to be different. A memorable meal was on Mother’s Day this year. They served an ‘Elvis Breakfast’ with French toast, peanut butter, banana and I’m sure a trillion other elements which I have long forgotten. But I will never forget trying to finish that meal! It was huge! No wonder Elvis stacked it on!


Speaking of weight, the girls visited the vet on Monday and were given double thumbs up for their ‘weigh in’. How is it, that us humans pile on the weight over winter, yet the pugs have trimmed down?! Is that fair?! Truthfully, they were put on portion control and follow a strict diet away from the café treats. Their daily exercise has also kept them trim and terrific. It is really important we keep their weight down for health reasons. I am so proud of them looking so fit and healthy.


Today, we were all definitely Sinners. It was worth every calorie!
