What a wag

MEET this week’s winner of the Noosa Today Furry Friend competition, the regally named Jack Henry William Shaw.
Jack turns seven this month and enjoys walkies along the Noosa River and Noosa Main Beach and loves to make friends with everyone he meets.
Jack’s mum, Christina, said he has a beautiful nature.
“Jack is always wagging his tail and is just so happy all the time despite suffering from severe epilepsy for most of his young life,” she said.
“Jack’s attitude is ’whatever’. He makes us laugh and can be a very cheeky monkey. He has filled our lives with lots of love and waggy tails.”
For your chance to win a double pass to BCC Noosa 5 Cinemas, email a high resolution photo of your furry friend to competitions@noosatoday.net.au and tell us a little about your furry friend.
