What could be hotter than shirtless firefighters with dogs? Shirtless firefighters raising money for charity with dogs!

The 2019 Australian Firefighters Dog Calendar is ready to grace your wall with 11 beefy firemen and their adorable, fuzzy, canine companions! Not only will you get 12 months of super cute canines and foxy firemen, but you’ll also be helping multiple charities that support cancer research and animals!

2019 marks the calendar’s 26th year in print, and it hasn’t lost it’s sizzle!

And it’s not just Aussie men in the calendar. The calendar is popular with people all over, so the call for muscular firemen went out worldwide with only 11 spaces available.

“With the explosion of worldwide interest in the calendar it only made sense for us to invite the hottest firefighters from around the globe here to the beautiful Gold Coast to be a part of the world’s very first ͚International Firefighters Calendar.”

And aside from getting to be featured in the calendar and hang out with sweet animals for 17 days, there was another benefit to posing for the photos…

These guys got to raise money for charitable organizations in their home countries in addition to the ones the calendar already supports!

“We are very excited to start working with local Australian and international animal shelters. We felt it was important to use the calendar͛s social media presence to shine a light on the incredible work they all do. Even a small donation to these organisations can make an enormous difference and we look forward to expanding our support to these charities.”

Many of the photos were taken at Steve Irwin’s Australia Zoo, which is not only thankful for being a part of the iconic calendar, but will also see a portion of the proceeds.

So if blazing hot firemen and pups weren’t reason enough to get a calendar of your own, add charity to the list of reasons to get one!

Over the years, The Australian Firefighters Calendar has donated $2.8 million to charities, with over half donated in the last four years alone.

Though we love these guys for posing with pups, there are other editions too. There’s the Australian Firefighters Animal Calendar that features horses, meerkats, and this teeny piggy.

The Cat edition is new this year after a Facebook post of their firemen posing with kittens went viral last year. Demand for men with kittens was high, so the Australian Firefighters Calendar decided to supply!
