Personal message

Hey Townies

We are appealing for your support to help us raise money to complete the building of a recovery ward for our dogs that need 24 hour care. We are almost there. This will save us thousands of rands every month, when we can provide our dogs the post operative care 24 hours a day at our own centre.

Please will you help us raise R1000 for each of the 175 dogs in our care so we can build our recovery ward for our dogs that need special care and cage rest after their surgeries. We have found the most awesome spot on our farm to create this little place of peace and quiet for our dogs to recover. Within the recovery area we would like to build a spot for some of our dogs that have compulsive behaviours. Where their environment is so critical in keeping them calm and below threshold. You can help us build this place of safety and recovery by simply mailing [email protected]

OUR MISSIONIs to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome.

 
 
Dogtown SA – Saving More Lives
 
Nestled in the mountains is the most remarkable sanctuary, for dogs who have lost their families or have been rescued from dire situations. Every day the dedicated team at Dogtown behaviourist and caregivers provide individual care to each of these dogs in a peaceful, tranquil setting while they wait for their forever homes. 
 
Rescue dogs are not Broken
There is often a misconception that all rescue dogs are going to be damaged in some way, but that’s simply not true. There are plenty of wonderful dogs at Dogtown SA, who through no fault of their own have found themselves homeless and are just hoping for a second chance at a new life in a loving home.
 
 
 
 

 Robs Retreat – Rehabilitation Area

 Sometimes however there are sadly a few dogs that have had a rough time and are struggling. These special need dogs require professional care. At Dogtown we have a dedicated rehabilitation area where our full time qualified trainers and behaviorists work tirelessly each day, improving the lives of these misunderstood dogs. 
We are often their last glimmer of hope to become well-adjusted dogs who can live full and happy lives.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Retirement Village
We are currently busy creating our retirement village to provide a safe and loving environment for the more mature residents who often require special medical care and are sadly dumped at animal shelters when they become too much trouble.
 
You can help us Save More Lives
Every year thousands of precious dogs lose their homes and their lives. With your help we can SAVE more lives and provide the best care for the abandoned and abused, while we search for loving families that will give them their happy ever after. 
 
We aim to offer lifelong commitment to the dogs that come into our care and a lifetime of support to their new families.
 

With the quality of daily enrichment and training by internationally qualified staff. The dogs at Dogtown receive the best care while they patiently wait for their loving home.
