Our Adopt a Stray program is starting to help a lot more dogs and cats that otherwise wouldn't survive. Queen and Venus are two that were in our program and are now going home with their new families.
Thank you Leiana and Chris for adopting Queen.

Thanks also to Colin and Margarita at Kingaroos Bar and Resto in Bacong for finding more space in your crowded home for Venus.
Venus
All of it made possible by your generous donations - thank you! If you know an animal in need of help and are willing to adopt please message our Inbox.
Adoptions often cause us mixed feelings, especially with older dogs as we have loved and cared for them for so long, we feel like we are abandoning them.
Many have become so attached to staff that we worry they will not adjust.
For this reason we ONLY let adult dogs go if we are sure they will have a better life than they get at the shelter, and if they can bond with their new owners.
We rescued Jack on July 27th 2021, almost 3 years to the day.
He was found by one of our supporters, lying on the side of the road having seizures. Likely he'd been hit by a car.
One of his front legs had to be amputated.
Honey
He never really bonded with other dogs until we rescued honey, and the two were inseparable after that.
Olga who adopted honey, decided to adopt Jack last week. Honey is a little aloof with him at the moment but he immediately bonded with Olga and settled in, following her around everywhere.
Thank you Olga, Noel and Abby for all that you do to help us out and give our rescues a wonderful home.

Cersei
We always follow up on adoptions as we want to ensure our adoptees are happy and well looked after. However, some adoptions just don't work out for a variety of reasons..
Cersei the German shepherd was adopted a few weeks ago and I can honestly say the adopters worked so hard to help her adjust but one of their dogs just wouldn't accept Cersei and she ended up fighting a lot. It became too much to deal with for the adopters so they reluctantly asked us to bring Cersei back.
She's not an aggressive dog but will fight back and she also has separation anxiety.
We decided to send her to Crystal for boarding and assessment. She will stay there for at least a month so we can get a better idea of what her issues are, if any, and put her through rehab and behavioural training.
These are added expenses that we can't foresee when we first rescue a dog.
We will advertise Cersei for adoption when she has finished her training, likely in 2 months time. Please don't message us asking to adopt her as we will not consider adoption at this time.
