The dipping events for dogs organised by AANWO vet clinic with the support of Animal-Kind International and Kyron Labs are a great event for the dogs and community's health!

But not everyone is convinced :-D this beautiful dog needed a little bit more patience before joining in

💔 We are absolutely heartbroken for this poor kitten who was found in a rubbish container—emaciated, with an old wound on his back. We are so sorry, little one, that humans failed you.

But from now on, you are not alone. ❤️

Thanks to the quick response from team Triglav Trust, who drove to pick him up and Windhoek Veterinary Clinic cc who gave him the urgent treatment he needed, and to everyone who supports animal welfare in Namibia, this kitten now has a fighting chance.

He is now safe and gets the care he needs, and while his road to recovery may be long, he now has a community of people who love him, care about him, and are standing up for him.

Thank you to every single person who plays a part in giving animals like him hope. Together, we can be the change. 🐾

🐾 Henties Bay Spay Day Update 🐾

Thanks to the support of the Fondation Brigitte Bardot, we were able to hold another successful spay day in Henties Bay — with 9 dogs and 2 cats sterilised and welcomed to the Have a Heart family.

Every procedure done is one more step toward preventing unwanted litters, reducing suffering, and giving animals in this community a healthier future.

Special thanks to Dr. Winterbach and Sheelagh for their compassion, and to the committed owners who brought their animals — some for the first time, others returning for follow-ups and vaccinations.

Behind every number is a family, a story, a life made better.

Thank you for making this work possible.

Omaruru Spay Days with State Vets

🐾 Another successful spay day in Omaruru – made possible through close collaboration with the dedicated State Vet team.

These small, focused days aim to provide essential ongoing care to dogs and cats in the area, including sterilisation and treatment for conditions like TVT (transmissible venereal tumor), which is sadly common in unsterilised dogs.

While we aim to hold spay days here weekly, it’s not always possible — resources, logistics, and staffing don’t always line up. But when it does come together, we make every moment count.

Thanks to many responsible owners, the waiting list is long and the commitment is there. Slowly and steadily, the fantastic Have a Heart team in Omaruru is reaching more animals and bringing long-term solutions to the community.

Thank you to the State Vet team, all the hardworking volunteers of Have a Heart and The ARK Rescue and Rehabilitation ! With your support, they are making days like this possible.

Every sterilised animal is a step toward fewer unwanted litters, healthier pets, and less suffering.
