AS WELL as finding phone numbers and addresses, the region’s residents could find their new pet thanks to the White Pages this year.
Tamworth-based Heaven Can Wait animal rescue group features on the front cover of this year’s telephone directory.
This comes after Yellow Pages and White Pages partnered with PetRescue, using the covers of the directories to help raise awareness of animal adoptions and to help people find their new best friends.
The Tamworth directory features former Heaven Can Wait vice-president Sandra Gericke with her best friend, Frankie, a Tibetan spaniel.
Volunteer Tracy Dyson said she hoped it would encourage more people to adopt local pets.
She said she had been involved since Heaven Can Wait started and said she enjoyed giving dogs a second chance.
“Unfortunately, it is a throw away society and that includes dogs and cats,” she said.
“Doing things like this (featuring them on the front cover) is very important to the organisation.
“It might also persuade people not to breed their dogs and have their dogs desexed.”
