Thank You for helping!!


  More Information
People constantly ask why we do this if we dont make any money, plain and simple, we do this for the animals.  The costs of feeding are a constant cost while they wait to find their new homes.  Some dogs arrive and are adopted relatively quickly, however, some others that I have in care have been here for well over a year, and are still waiting for their 'forever' homes!

They are all GREAT DOGS!
Some just aren't the 'flavour' of the month !!

With the numbers of dogs currently in care, we are using

30 kilos of dry food daily (1.5 x 20 kilo bag)

Price per bag ranges between $30 to $50 per bag, add to that our bones bill and other diets (eg puppy food and cat food). 

 To reduce our costs we purchase food by the pallet load (28 bags), which lasts us 3 weeks (if we're lucky)!!
  
 
Being self funded, our costs (vet bills, foods and medications) are rarely covered by adoption fees and we cover the difference from our own personal income and we have managed to continue helping animals for over 10 yrs now!!  and each year we take in and rehouse over 150 dogs!!

All Donations Help!

Dogs for Rural Areas

Do you live on acreage and are looking for a dog who is suitable (or used to) rural living?  
Our dogs in care (big and small) are able to be tested with the variety of livestock (eg feathered and furry) prior to being adopted. 

For Guardian breeds please see our
Maremma Rescue Page or if your interested in a smaller house dog that is good on acreage and trustworthy around stock, just give me a call on 02 6355 5004 or 0418171896 (evenings are best) to discuss your situation and what your looking for.
