Bank details: Best Friends Animal Rescue, ANZ, BSB: 016-359, A/C: 4823-43427 or A little bit of background of how this dog rescue group came into being as told by Jeane Howes, founder of Best Friends Animal Rescue.....

As a child, I lived in the north of England in the late 1960s. There were lots of stray dogs and my mother used to send me out with bags of bones to feed the hungry dogs. As some

of these dogs would follow us home, they became part of the family and lived with us until their dying day. I always said to my mum that when I grew up I would buy a big house and she could fill it with stray dogs. After travelling for many years, I made Perth my permanent home in 1996. I volunteered at a couple of rescue centres for 5 years on weekends, working full time during the week. It was very clear to me that there were many more dogs needing someone to help and rescue them. I was always finding dogs who were wandering the streets because they were lost and/or homeless. To help with my strong desire to make a difference to these sad and sorry dogs, I did some training in vet nursing and animal behaviour. Finally in 2006 I started Best Friends Animal Rescue. My mother got a year’s visa and came to Perth to help me. I bought a house on 5 acres with a large living area, a bit run down, but we didn’t care as long as we had somewhere that we could look after the homeless dogs. I had 14 dogs at the time, but it was a very quiet, peaceful house and the dogs knew that were cared for. My mother just loved it and was so pleased with the changes I could make to an animal’s life. My mother came again for another year, and I couldn't have done it without her. When she went back to England she was always talking about the dogs. Now Best Friends Animal Rescue has a network of volunteers who foster the dogs, providing a loving and safe place until a suitable permanent home is found. So far Best Friends Animal Rescue has re-homed over 700 dogs, mostly the older dogs that are the most difficult to find a new forever home. Our future is to build an elderly and special needs dog rescue and retirement home in the Perth Hills, to give a lasting, happy final home for the really old or sick to enjoy their final years.

Here’s a little update on Chevy ❤️
⬇️

Since coming into our care and starting on some natural treatments, a dental clean, teeth removal and a fresh diet Chevy seems to be making some improvements! He breathing is also better which shows when he out on his walk and playing with his fellow rescue friends!

He also absolutely loves his car rides and watching the outside world!

Whilst he’s happy and comfortable then we most certainly are too, as it’s just so lovely to see him at last enjoying his life in his twilight years ❤️

(See comments for a little video of him out on a walk with his friends!)

Happily Ever After ❤️🐶🏡

We’re absolutely thrilled to bits for little Patch as he now lives his best life in his new home, with his new family ❤️

Who’d have thought this was the same little scared, snappy dog who came to us with an electric barking collar around his neck because he ‘barked too much!’ 💔

He’s now calm, content and so very happy with his new family…and guess what? He hardly ever barks now! It really is amazing what a bit of love and patience can do ❤️

Happy new life beautiful boy ❤️

❗️STILL LOOKING❗️

❗️PLEASE SHARE❗️

❤️ Meet 14 year old Shania and 12 year old Shiloh ❤️

These sweet girls are Maltese x Shihtzus.

They are looking for a new forever home due to their original owner sadly passing away and currently only in temporary foster.

These girls came to us slightly over weight and their current foster carers have done an amazing job getting the weight off them! This is still an ongoing process and with the correct diet we would like this to continue.

They love each other very much and are very closely bonded so we are looking for a home where they can remain together! They would also suit been homed with people who are home more often than not or part time workers NOT full time workers.

Shania and Shiloh are very good with other dogs, cats and children and just love to snuggle in your lap! They’re also very healthy & active girls. Shania would be forever foster and Shiloh adoption. This can be discussed and explained in more detail when potential new carers/owners speak with us here at BFAR.

If you think you’ve got the room in your heart and home for these two sweet girls please contact JEANE via phone rather than message on📱0415 779 610📱to discuss. This is the best way to show genuine interest rather than asking questions in comments. Or alternatively fill out the application form below ⬇️ ⬇️

UPDATE- she is now in the care of HAART. Thanks everyone

We have very limited info on this sweet little girl. All we know is that’s she’s a two year old very friendly girl, and good with other dogs. She’s full of life but her time is running out at the pound.

Do you have a loving home and somewhere safe that she can adjust? Whether it’s a temporary or permanent home, if you can help please call jeane on📱 0415 779 610

"Perna mussels (also called “green-lipped mussel” [GLM]) are a natural alternative to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in dogs and work their magic through similar actions in the body. Dose: 150 mg per ten pounds (4.5 kg) of body weight daily, divided in meals.

According to board-certified veterinary nutritionist Dr. Donna Raditic, the anti-inflammatory effects of EPA and DHA in dogs with various diseases—including kidney disease, cardiovascular disorders, osteoarthritis, atopy (skin conditions), and inflammatory bowel disease—have been evaluated, and the dose ranges from 50 to 220 mg/kg (23–100mg/lb) of body weight. The highest dose is recommended for osteoarthritis in dogs not otherwise being supplemented (not getting additional omegas in commercial dog food). If your dog isn’t eating any other sources of omega-3s (like sardines), consider a maintenance dose of 75 mg per kg (34 mg/lb) of body weight for healthy animals. These doses are based on adding the milligrams of EPA and DHA per supplement capsule or milliliters of liquid. We recommend storing omega-3s in the refrigerator once opened; aim to use up your supply within thirty days, or buy capsules and hide them in a meatball. (Or puncture capsule and squeeze into food.)

URGENT ‼️

We are looking for a foster or forever foster home for Chevy. He’s a beautiful little 13 year old English staffy. Unfortunately his owner is unable to care for him due to having a stroke.

Chevy can go to a home with other dogs or cats as he is great with both, and he loves children as any typical staffy does.

Don’t let Chevy’s age fool you. He is full of zoomies and loves his walks so if you’d like a new walking buddy then Chevy could be the dog for you!!

If you have any questions about being a potential foster or Forever Foster for our little Chevy, please contact Jeane on 📱 0415 779 610.

Beautiful boy ⭐️ Ace ⭐️ is now more than ready for his forever home ❤️

▪️He’s a very healthy, nine year old German Shepherd.
▪️He’s good with other dogs and people.
▪️No to cats

This last couple of months Ace has been taken to some busy dog parks and shown great behaviour whilst on a long leash and has loved making new friends.

He’s also shown lots of patience with his other rescue mates at BFAR and plays very gently with the smaller dogs ❤️

Ace settles well when he’s left alone indoors, so part time workers would be considered once we have more information. He would also need to be with an adult family, no small children but would be fine with older teenagers. He’s doing very well with his training, so experienced owners that could continue this with him is a must.

If you think you could be the right fit for Ace and have room in your home for this lovely boy, please either contact JEANE on:📱0415 779 610📱for more information or private message us your number for us to call you.
