🍀💔😭 WE ARE SORRY CLOVER 😭💔🍀

We tried.

We tried so hard to save you. We gave permission to throw everything at you but it wasn't enough. Your little body just wasn't strong enough.

Thank you for trying Clover. You fought so so hard 😭

⁉️QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS AROUND FUNDRAISERS ⁉️

As always DARE will post receipts of medical bills to show our costs.

To answer a few questions for all to help our amazing supporters understand:

❓️Q) CAN WE PAY DIRECTLY TO THE VET❓️

♻️ We would love that! However many clinics have stopped doing this for several reasons. The main ones are:

⚠️- It clogs their phone lines. They need their phone lines open for clients to call and not engaged with people paying over the phone.

⚠️- People want to do bank transfer. This takes 3-5 days to go through meaning they can't keep an accurate log of where the vet bill is up to chronologically.

⚠️- People demand tax receipts from the vets to claim the donation. Vets CAN NOT issue tax receipts on donations and have suffered abuse for it in the past.

❓️ CAN YOU NAME THE VET SO WE CAN VERIFY THERE ARE ANIMALS THERE. ❓️

♻️ We do name the vets often but they will not disclose what animals are there due to privacy, just like any other medical field. So you won't get an answer regardless. This is why we post bank statements that show the vet name in them for verification.

⚠️ If you dont trust we are telling the truth, you've likely seen other charities scam before and you may feel uneasy. We don't blame you for being cautious and so we be as transparent as we can.

❓️ WHY DONT YOU DO GOFUNDMES ❓️

♻️ Because you can't be issued a tax receipt for your donations. A sad loophole many people aren't aware of. You're paying a business who then transfer a sum to the intended person, so you're not paying a charity.

❓️ IF I ENTER YOUR RAFFLE OR BUY MERCH TO SUPPORT, CAN I GET A TAX RECEIPT. ❓️

♻️ Under ATO, no as you're not donating, you're classed as gambling or purchasing an item. You are supporting which is brilliant but it's not classed as a donation.

❓️ ARENT ALL CHARITIES TAX DEDUCTIBLE ❓️

⚠️ NO!!!⚠️

♻️ ONLY charities with DGR status are eligible for tax receipts!!! Very few hold this title so please research each one carefully.

We hope this helps.

💔UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE REOPENING THE FUNSRAISER 💔

Clover and Dublin are sadly very very critical. Particularly clover. We have made the decision to race them to another hospital who can provide plasma and blood as a last effort to help them.

This will blow through our surplus and leave us back to $0. We are ok with this and we will be organising the raffles etc soon.

We are just having to manage;

💔1 Make up litter pup - Gucci in hospital.
💔Dublin and Clover in ICU.
💔Moon raced to emergency today for a emergency bowel obstruction surgery.
💔 Scruffy back at vets for suspected coccidia. 💔Sundae getting biopsy.
💔 Other make up litters getting treated for coccidia.

So our incredible donation has been spread out already through all these urgent cases.

Lord give us strength

🍀 KERRIE IS HOME AND WE HAVE RECEIVED A HUGE DONATION 🍀

Yes you read that correctly! Little Kerrie from the Irish litter is safe enough for us to manage in care.

She still is flat and she still has a little way to go but her appetite is back which means we will be able to manage her outside of ICU!!

We never thought she would recover so quickly but we gave her high dose vitamin c prior to hospitalisation which has been an undeniable game changer in our management of parvo.

Now on to something beyond belief..... we received a call at 6pm from a philanthropist organisation that has donors wishing to help the community but annonymously.

They donated a whopping $10,000 to our parvo babies. Im absolutely blown away!!!

We feel confident to say that we do not need to continue to fundraise for these puppies!!!

Too many organisations keep donations like that a secret so they can capitalise on the sob story and milk it. We have always stated we would operate with transparency and honesty because in today's climates, being a charity no longer means you are ethical.

So we thank everyone who has donated and voted, we are beyond grateful.

We are still going to do some of the amazing fundraiser ideas (and merchandise) and put towards our 4 programs.

UMMMMM...... " NOT ENOUGH DEMAND" ????

So private charities with no government assistance are DROWNING and copping abuse for not being able to fit in more....

But the wealthiest animal business is closing due to " not enough dogs "

Are we taking the p**s?

QUESTION

So, you match with this guy on a dating app, and his profile is all "Entrepreneur" (aka, "I sell things on eBay and sometimes forget to ship them") but he still lives with his mum.

He proceeds to brag about being"6ft 2".. how he benchs 250kg and of course, he'sa true "Alpha Male"—you know, the kind of guy who thinks a protein shake is a personality trait and calls himself a "Red Pill" guru.

But hey, I’m an optimist, right? Maybe he’s just… one of those "better in person" guys. Maybe the profile is just an illusion, like that one guy who looks like a Greek god in a selfie and then you find out he’s actually just holding a traffic cone next to him. Maybe, just maybe, he’s a Rottweiler with a soft side.

You convince yourself it's ok to go on the first date.

You meet him in person, and what do you get?

The guy below.... At this point, the only thing “alpha” about him is the way he talks about his Amazon Prime membership.

I can’t help but think this is exactly what he would look like in dog form:

Am I wrong?

P.s we love short kings a men who look after their mummas 😉 sattire for Humphrey.

😍 LUCAS 😍

Look.... I'm not going to lie... I really don't think lucas wants to leave his house.

I think hes rather loving life right now but who wouldn't with his foster mum April?

However if you can spoil this boy as much as April does.... he maaaaaay be convinced to go with you....

If you've got what it takes to meet his standards, apply now but don't be upset if he turns you down, he's quite the diva.

💔 EMERALD 💔

Unfortunately little Emerald fought as hard as she could but was not able to hold on. She sadly passed away over night.

All because someone didn't vaccinate for a virus that has a near 100% preventable option.

Arriving with body scores of 1 meant these babies had no reserves. No spare energy to give. The worm burden they suffered for so long also meant that their gut integrity would look like a sieve. Parvo attacks the gut so these puppies had very little chance.

Absolutely gutted but we knew we through all we could at her.

(Please know for transparency- this reduces our target costs down. We won't capitalise and aim for $30k if it's no longer needed. )

❌️ DARE ARE BROKEN AND WE DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO. ❌️️

Before you read this post, euthanasia is not an option. We will never end a fight due to finance so any suggestions of that will be removed.

Every rescues worst nightmare has happened to us yesterday.

6 of our new puppies that arrived on the weekend have tested positive for parvo.

The incubation period for parvo is 5-7 days before symptoms show so the rangers would not have seen any clinical signs at all so are in now way responsible. This pound in particular follows all protocols with f10 , they contracted it from being on a road.

We are broken.

These puppies already suffered so much cruelty with one dying from its injuries. Then they faced starvation, worm burden, flea infestation and abandonment on a motorway.
Now they are fighting the cruelest PREVENTABLE DISEASE a dog can get all bevause of some absolute wankers who won't desex or vet work their dogs.

We are left to pick up the pieces.

We raced them to ARH at 9pm and then picked them up at 9am to get them to AWL for ongoing care.

That 12 hour period was $7,217.1

The estimate is $800 a day per pup with 5 day with an average 5 day treatment time.

That's $4800 a day.

Or

$24,000 for 5 days of care NOT including the $7,217.1 weve spent so far.

That means we need to raise

🎯$30,000🎯

We can't ask that sum from our followers. It's a ridiculous figure and we dont have the reach. Our amazing supporters have already sponsored 7 litters and helped us save Ghost and Banjo. Asking for more money feels like a real p**s take but it's sadly the reality of rescue.

💡WE ARE OPEN TO ALL FUNDRAISING IDEAS 💡

If you have any suggestions we will try anything. Bunnings wait list is already a few months long so sadly isn't an option for immediate help.

The only other option we have is to sell our rescue van which we use weekly but we don't have much choice.

If anyone has any businesses that are willing to donate for tax purposes please tag them and we will give in anyway they need. Speeches... accolades... advertising... we will do anything.
