Every Life Matters
Wally adopted
Little Wally got adopted on 9 November 2024! We have so many puppies now at the Sanctuary so it's great when one gets adopted! This helps us to create space to rescue more and of course gives a dog the chance to live its best life.
If you can make room for just one more soul in your home, please message us.
We still have a lot of puppies looking for their forever homes, please message our Inbox if you'd like to take one home today - Our Puppies

Gibson
In November 2024, under our Adopt a Stray programme, we rescued Gibson. He was extremely thin and riddled with Demodex mange, which had caused the breakdown of his skin tissues. He was covered in sores and lesions. He also had a dangerously low red blood cell count. In just the short time we have had him, his sores disappeared and he is started to relax and enjoy his life. He's a really happy little soul!

Esther
On 3 November 2024, we took in a senior dog, who collapsed on the street. Her skin was severely inflamed, but we hoped we could save her.
Sadly, she didn't make it. She had a seizure the next day followed by a cardiac arrest. We tried to revive her but couldn't.
Right now all it seems we are able to offer these dogs is a comfortable, quiet passing, which I guess is at least something. It seems like once they feel safe, and their stress response comes down, their body gives up.
Run free lovely girl.
On 3 November 2024, we were sent this video of some people here in the Philippines who really do care.
Rafael was seen stuck in a river by some boys who messaged us and tried to get him out. Rabies is a serious threat here, and because most people are not vaccinated, people are understandably cautious.
Yet despite their fears, these boys went in and got Rafael out.
We picked him up immediately, did the full range of tests and found he was in acute kidney failure. He also had a lot of wounds over his body.
We put him on meds and painkillers and made him comfortable. He passed away peacefully 3 hours later.
Thank you, Reme, and friends for trying to save him.
Thank you to everyone here who really does care for animals, feeds strays, and does the best they can with what limited resources they have.
Run free Rafael.
Freya, female
Freya was abandoned close to the Sanctuary in October 2024, along with siblings Feebie and Frannie. After Feebie passed, we thought Freya and Frannie would survive, but Freya died in the same way on 2 November 2024. Our hopes are will the one survivor, Frannie, that the same fate does not befall her. At least Freya knew love, even if only for a short while.
