Diepsloot Days
Max, as he is now known, was rescued from a life of absolute hell…no shade, no food or water and chained to a tree. We were told he is extremely aggressive…wouldn’t you be if this was the only crap life you had ever known? We uplifted Max from his hell on earth and he is now at Dogs Trust, learning to tryst and live again. Once he has been sterilised and introduced to other dogs, he will move into a big run where he will have all the space and love in the world.

Angels Walk Amongst Us!
We were called to hell Banjo, who had been sick for weeks and the owners only called us on Thursday. Banjo hadn’t eaten for 8 days and could barely stand when we arrived. She was in advanced stages of bilary. She was rushed to our vet, treatment started and a blood transfusion arranged. Shandy, a dog from our shelter, stepped up to the plate and gave life saving blood to Banjo. Thai post is to thbak both Dr Anthia from Petite Paws, who always drop everything when we run in with an emergency, we appreciate you and your team more than you will ever know. And our second thank you is to our beautiful Shandy for being the superhero and donating blood. Shandy is at our shelter, she is the most beautiful soul and she is waiting patiently for a home of her very own. ❤️

Tiny is as sweet as can be and would love nothing more than to find a comfy spot to nap the day away. He's good with other dogs, especially large females 🐕👍 Despite his name, Tiny is a big boy, around 7 years old, who was found as a stray in the township. He may be big, but his heart is even bigger 🥰 If you’re looking for a big, gentle companion with an even bigger heart, Tiny is the one for you! 😍 Call us on 071 504 2657 / 074 445 4943 📍 Currently kennelled in Lanseria, Johannesburg. #seniordogsrock #seniordogsrule #adoptaseniordog #dogsofsouthafrica #seniordogs #johannesburg #pretoria
NEW INTAKE
This litter shepherd girl was found in the township and we managed to get the owner to surrender her as we could see that she was very bloated and not well.
We have named her Kai ❤️
Kai had her stomach drained and is being treated for hyperproteinemia which is caused by extreme malnutrition and an infestation of parasites. Thank you once again to Petite Paws for helping with this sweet girl. 🙏🏻
Once recovered, Kai will be up for adoption! 😁🐶

We were recently asked to help with a black backed jackal pup that was injured and couldn’t walk.
We were recently asked to come and help catch an injured black backed jackal pup, he had crawled into a tree stump and was looking very sorry for himself.
After gently catching the scared little pup, we took it to Friends of Free Wildlife who will rescue, rehabilitate and release. Thank you for taking in this little pup. ❤️
Commander.
Thank you to Dr Anthia of Petite Paws we operated on and fixed Commanders ear… an Aurel Hematoma is a blood filled swelling in the ear flap that occurs when blood vessels in the ear rupture. It is painful and uncomfortable and normally caused by an ear infection. Commander is now feeling loads better after the operation and receiving meds for the infection.
Bella.
Bella lived her whole life on a chain with little to no human interaction and only her little friend Luna to keep her company. Life changed for the better when we managed to convince the owners to surender her and her little friend. So much of happiness now with space to run and play and the opportunity to be adopted into loving homes with no more chains.
Last week we found a drift of pigs living in the most awful conditions ! No water, no food and some were already dead… Thankfully the next day, the owners surrendered them to us 🙏 We would like to give FORA (Friends of Rescued Animals) a massive THANK YOU for taking these piggies in and giving them the life they deserve 💕🥰
