Make a Donation
We are a totally self-funded organisation and rely entirely on donations to continue our work. Please consider helping us to save more of Perth's unwanted and abandoned dogs.
At the Dogs' Refuge Home we love dogs
At the Dogs’ Refuge Home in Shenton Park we love dogs and are committed to saving them. In fact we save hundreds of unwanted, neglected, abandoned and abused dogs every year.
With around 100 beautiful four legged friends in our care at any one time, chances are your next addition to the family is waiting patiently for you. And with so many abandoned dogs desperate for a second chance at a happy life, consider visiting us before you go to a pet shop or breeder.
If you love dogs then please help us. Use our boarding services; consider giving a donation to further our rescue work or find out more about becoming a volunteer. We can't thank you enough for caring!
Top cop goes behind bars for Cops and Slobbers
Mark your calendars, because the event of the year is here! On Friday 15 October 2010, Police Commissioner Karl O'Callaghan and his band, The Filth, will be heading behind bars at the Fremantle Prison to help us celebrate 75 years of rescuing and rehoming Perth's lost and abandoned dogs and raise some much needed funds for the Refuge at Cops and Slobbers.
The event will be a celebration of the work carried out by the Refuge since 1935 when the shelter first opened it's doors to Perth's abandoned dogs. Cops and Slobbers is set to be a fun filled night for anyone who loves great music and shares a common love of man's best friend.
Along with live entertainment provided by The Filth, Refuge co-patron, Melanie Greensmith of Wheels and Dollbaby will be adding her own inimitable frock rock style to the event, along with rock legend Mark McEntee from the Divinyls, who will also be making a guest appearance on stage during the night.
Tickets are $45 and include finger food. Drinks are available at special prices.
Cops and Slobbers is set to be an event not to be missed. Tickets are on sale now. Further event information and details for how to get your tickets are available on the Cops and Slobbers event page.
You can keep up to date with the latest news about Cops and Slobbers on our Facebook page.
Cops and Slobbers is proudly supported by City Farmers, Gage Roads, Ferngrove Wines and Irdi Legal.
Can you lend a hand?
We're always looking for dog lovers who are able to volunteer their time to walk our dogs or help with their care. It would be great if you could spare some time.
Foster homes needed
Many of our dogs do not cope well in a kennel environment because of stress or even depression. We always need foster carers to take in these special dogs.
