Passing of Malcolm McDonald
November 2026

It is with profound sadness that the Board of Directors shares the news of the passing of Malcolm McDonald, our esteemed Honorary Solicitor, Life Member and a dedicated member of DOGS NSW for more than four decades.

The Board invites the wider DOGS NSW community to come together in extending our sincere condolences to Malcolm’s partner, Janel, his sons, Matthew, Jordan and Mitchell; his extended family members, friends and colleagues.  At this difficult time, we offer them our sincere sympathy.

We cannot fully capture Malcolm’s contribution to DOGS NSW and his longstanding support in just a few words.

From the organisation’s early days, Malcolm was a tireless champion for DOGS NSW and its members.  He gave his time, expertise and guidance freely always putting the interests of the company and its members before personal recognition.  Generous service, wise counsel and a humility that left an unwavering mark on our community defined his dedication to DOGS NSW.

For decades, he served with quiet distinction, offering steady guidance and unwavering support whenever it was needed.  His commitment to our members and to the values of DOGS NSW helped to strengthen our organisation and will remain an important part of our history.

As a mark of respect and remembrance, the flags at DOGS NSW will fly at half-mast.
