More Just In. Back to top. She only stayed on the island for three weeks before she got too lonely and swam back to shore to return home. Older dogs and with a partner were later placed on the island to give them a more enjoyable time and discourage them from fleeing to the mainland in search of company. Mr Marsh said Oddball was chosen for the ground-breaking role because she was an easy-going dog who mollified initial concerns the Maremmas might attack people.
He said after her crusading role, Oddball went to his poultry farm at Purnim where she guarded chickens for much of her life before returning to Dennington for her final years. He said there were a number of Qantas passengers on international flights to Australia who changed their travel plans to visit Warrnambool and the home of the pioneering Maremma.
Oddball with his Maremma mates and Swampy Marsh. He said he believed the movie would continue to bring visitors to the city, with it being released in the US in February this year.
The Warrnambool City Council fielded inquiries from around the world from other cities hoping to introduce a similar protection program, Mr Abbott said.
He urged residents to support their fund-raiser by visiting the Middle Island — Maremma Penguin Project Facebook page. Warrnambool mayor Kylie Gaston believes a statue of Oddball opposite Middle Island would be a fitting tribute to the late canine. Oddball spent only two weeks on Middle Island guarding penguins, but her short trip led to a permanent maremma dog program. Oddball, the maremma that proved dogs could be used to protect a Victorian penguin colony and inspired a movie in the process, has died aged She spent only two weeks on Middle Island but her short trip led to a permanent penguin-protection project being set up and a film being named after her.
About m offshore from Warrnambool and connected by a tidal sand bridge, Middle Island has been home to little penguins for decades. That led chicken farmer Alan Marsh, who had trained maremmas to protect his free-range chooks, to suggest applying the same tactic for the penguins. The world-first project was so successful it attracted interest from as far as Italy and led to Shane Jacobson portraying Marsh in the family film Oddball.
