WHY YOUR DONATION MATTERS
As the cost of living rises, so does the cost of caring for WA's homeless hounds.
This financial year, we rescued over 1400 dogs from pounds and private surrenders. The rental crisis playing a huge part in people having to surrender their pets.
As the pressure of surrender applications increases, we continue to appeal to the WA community to consider fostering or adopting a rescue dog to enable us to keep saving more dogs when they’ve found themselves without a home.
With the high daily intake of dogs and puppies into our Home from around metro and regional WA, our medical costs continue to increase. We are sadly looking at a $250,000 increase for the next year.
Many of the dogs who arrive at our Home (besides needing sterilising, vaccinating and microchipping) require additional work to be undertaken for abnormalities including suspicious lumps, heart murmurs, skin conditions, vision impairment, ear infections, incontinence, urinary infections and musculoskeletal conditions.
We are incredible grateful to the WA community for supporting our fundraising appeals, becoming regular donors and kennel sponsors to help ensure, as the costs of medication and veterinarian services increase, we can continue to provide quality health care to every dog and puppy that arrives to the Refuge. Thank you!
