🐾 We Need Your Help! 🐾

We have 7 adorable 16-week-old Weimaraner x Sharpei/Staffy puppies in our care, and they’re searching for foster or forever homes!

These pups are full of potential but need your support to grow into confident, happy companions. Here’s what we’re looking for in a foster home:
✅ A secure yard
✅ Mental stimulation and playtime
✅ Patience to help them overcome shyness around people

Other pets in the home? No problem! These puppies are young and ready to learn.

FOSTERING
Not ready to adopt? Fostering is a great way to see if a puppy is the right fit for your home. Ideally we seek foster homes within 30 minutes of Bunbury, Western Australia. We take care of all their essentials and provide you with food and bedding.
✔️ Microchipping
✔️ Vaccination
✔️ Health checks
✔️ Sterilisation (when they’re old enough)

INTERESTED? Send us a message today or visit our website to complete a Foster Carer Application. www.barrc.info/volunteer

A little update on Marceline and a shout out for donation of an XS life jacket to help her with her hydrotherapy sessions.
She is 3kg and our Small is way to large for her tiny frame.

What’s the ONE dog-related comment that makes you want to roll your eyes?

Let’s have some fun! Drop a comment with the worst thing people say about your furry friend. Is it:

Isn’t he a bit old for adoption?
That’s not a real dog—it’s a rat!

Or something else? Share your stories below and let’s see who has the most cringe-worthy dog comment!

Feel free to include a picture of your dog to show them off while you’re at it! Let’s celebrate our pups and call out the silly things people say.

BARRC is looking for some Media Marvels. Someone who has the flair and style to help us with not only our Facebook posts but also Instagram and TikTok, and any other social media that we have not heard of yet. We currently run our website on Wix so some Wix experience would be awesome.

let’s not forget about our old-school print media—the kind you can actually touch! Yep, those need a tidy up too, because who doesn’t love a good paper flier?

If this sounds like your jam (and let’s be real, we’re totally hip and cool), hop over to our website and see what we’re up to. There’s also a super easy volunteer application waiting for you, simply called “other stuff”. So go on what are you waiting for?

As we close out 2024, we can't help but reflect on the challenges we faced this year. It’s been a tough one for both our furry friends and all rescues, but with every challenge, we’ve witnessed the incredible strength of our community and the power of love and compassion.
To all of our supporters, volunteers, donors, and foster families – THANK YOU! Your dedication has helped us rescue, nurture, and rehome for so many dogs in need. Without you, none of this would be possible.
Here’s to a brighter 2025! Together, we’ll continue to make a difference in the lives of more dogs, one paw at a time.

We want to give a huge shoutout to everyone who donated throughout the year. Whether it was treats, toys, collars, or harnesses, we value it all! 💕

Special thanks to Water Corp Bunbury Division and Bec, Kaz and family for delivering items just in time for us to package up to gift to our dogs.

We’re also incredibly grateful for the many anonymous donations delivered for our fund raising auction page and for our dogs use. Thank you all so much!

Big thanks to Pet-O Bunbury and Pet Barn Bunbury for supporting us with their in-store donation boxes. Your kindness makes such a difference!

Just a friendly reminder: we can’t accept donations of sheets, towels, cushions or doonas. And we welcome any of those unwanted Christmas Gifts, for our Valentine Day Auction.

Boxing Day marks a year since Digby was rescued from the pound. While many rushed to the shops yesterday, seeking bargains, the most extraordinary bargain remains overlooked—Digby, waiting for his forever family.

For just $50, you’ll get so much more than “just a dog.” Digby comes with all vet work complete and an unlimited supply of love and loyalty. He’s a true gem, patiently waiting for someone to give him the chance he deserves.

Every day Digby spends waiting is a day he could be bringing joy to his new family. Could that family be yours?

Meet Digby and see if he’s the missing piece of your heart.

About Us

BARRC is a not for profit Animal Welfare organisation operating in Bunbury WA. The organisation operates solely on a voluntary basis and does not have paid employees nor does it receive any government funded grants. BARRC was established in March 2019 after a small group of individuals discovered a much needed requirement for more animal welfare organisation assistance in the South West of WA. We began as a group of individuals committed to rescuing and rehoming animals. Although we are a new organisation, at the time of commencement, our committee had a combined experience in animal welfare of over 22 years. The committee and management of BARRC is based in Bunbury, rescuing animals throughout the Bunbury region. This local community structure allows us to be flexible to meet the needs of the community and react accordingly.

BARRC focus on educating and engaging with the community to understand responsible pet ownership and how to embed it in their homes. We seek to have a positive impact to reduce animal homelessness whilst rescuing and rehoming those animals impacted in the meantime. We work collaboratively with other animal rescue organisations and have chosen a more compassionate way of looking at situations where people need to rehome or surrender their pets and understand that circumstances can change, placing families in desperate situations and in need of assistance. We understand how painful it must be for people forced to give up their beloved pet when they are left with no other choice. All our dogs are placed in suitable foster homes until the perfect home is found. Dogs in foster care are more likely to adjust to normal family life, as well as having the opportunity to socialise and provision of some basic training, such as house training and on lead manners. Foster homes not only save lives, they also make many animals more likely to be re-homed successfully. We believe that all companion animals deserve a safe and loving home. We strive to accomplish this through our work in rehoming, desexing and education programs. As part of our ‘Getting to Zero’ philosophy we are committed to achieving zero euthanasia of healthy, treatable and rehomable animals.
