Jet adopted
Jayce adopted
On 21 July 2024, Jet and Jayce, two abandoned puppies were adopted by two lovely families. We wish them all the best in their new homes, and hope this is the beginning of more adoptions following the end of our distemper outbreak earlier this year. Please message us if you can provide a loving home for any of Our Puppies.

Gage adopted
Gail adopted
We had a good week for adoptions! On 12 July 2024 Gage left us, followed by sister Gail on 19 July 2024. They were abandoned puppies and we wish them all the best in their new homes. We hope we are on a roll now, and our appearances at the Valencia Sunday Markets are raising awareness and triggering more families to bring these little discarded lives a little hope and love. Please message us if you can provide a loving home for any of Our Puppies.

Aziel when rescued
Good bye Warri and Casper!!!!
We have had these wonderful souls in our care for 3 months and on 14 July 2024 they are finally went home!
Warri had a double amputation and is going to her new home in Bohol, a neighboring island.
Casper came from Barkada - a shelter on another island, Camiguin. He had a bad case of TVT cancer on his face. We cured it but he is left with a hole. It doesn't cause him any problems as long as it is cleaned regularly. Casper is not going back to the shelter, he will stay with the family of the Shelter owner Zowie.
They are such sweet dogs and we will miss them tremendously - but we know they will have much better care than we can give them.
Thank you Art John Sulatre for taking them across to Bohol.

Many of the dogs we rescued in the early days of DAS are now approaching old age, like Blue. We rescued her from another shelter in July 2019 when they could no longer adequately care for the dogs they had there. She was already around 7 or 8 years old when we brought her in, so she was around 13 when she died.
She was such a beautiful girl.

She would sit in front of you to get some pets and gently touch your face with her paw. It saddens us that she never got her own family, though for her, we were her family. Throughout the years, Blue got quite plump, so along with a few other heavy weights, she took part in “The Biggest Loser” Weight Loss Challenge, coming in second with 2% weight loss after 4 weeks!

We even took her to the ocean regularly to get her more exercise, which she absolutely adored.
We believe she died of a cardiac arrest as she suddenly had trouble breathing. Staff put her on oxygen immediately, but she suddenly stopped breathing around 10 minutes later. We can’t wait to get the new shelter up and running so dogs like Blue can be much more comfortable in their old age. Senior dogs like her need much more comfort than we can give them at the current Shelter.
Run free Blue, you were so very loved. The Shelter won’t be the same without you.
