Last week when Orion was posted - our phones exploded !

Just to have denied three of his homes….

We are searching for the RIGHT home for Orion - where he’ll sleep inside, be part of the family, go for training and be in a safe/secure environment.

Orion is around 11 weeks old and is a German shepherd x. He has a huge personality and just happens to be Freya’s brother ! 😁 Orion has been well exposed to other doggies and would definitely benefit from having doggie friends.

This boy has his bags packed and we are desperate to find him the right home. ❤️

A very special home needed for a very special pup ! 🥹❤️

Meet Freya 🐾 A girl that unfortunately hasn’t had the easiest start to life… On the 26th December, we said goodbye to Freya as she headed off to her “forever home.” Her so called family were approved a week before she went home and we couldn’t wait for her to finally have her own home ! What happened after she left our care, we cannot give exact details because they have been withheld from us.

Within 2 hours, Freya ended up at the emergency vet with head trauma. We were told that the other doggie pinned her down and the couple told the vet that their dog had sat on her head. Completely different stories. 🤷‍♀️

After chats with the vet, he said that we may need to make a call on Freya if she doesn’t improve. Immediately we collected her and took her to our trusted vet - Petite Paws.

With her head trauma, came eyesight concerns. After much treatment and meds, Freya is starting to find herself again. She has a HUGE personality and loves other doggies - and even cats ! This young lady is absolutely fearless and would benefit from puppy training. She has grown very close to her foster parents but doesn’t enjoy being picked up much. Little Freya is really one of a kind and will need a very special home. Our vet has advised her to not be homed with children as her eyesight is not 100% yet. Freya is extremely intelligent and independent - will you be the one to change her life around ? For real this time ❤️

Beautiful Freya is an 11 week old German shepherd x and will be medium - large in size fully grown.

Old Man Benny!

Benny, who lived in Diepsloot, had a massive tumour which has been successfully removed by the awesome Dr Anthia at Petite Paws.

Benny is recovering on soft beds with lots of love at Dogs Trust.

Once his wound has healed, we will give him a bath, but he has had a bravecto in the interim to curb the ticks and fleas until we can give him a proper pampering.

Life of a township mom and pups!

We came across this mom and pups on an outreach in Atteridgeville recently, the mom was chained up, no water or food and couldn’t even get to her pups who where locked in the kennel close by.

The pups were living in absolute squalor in the little cement kennel.

Unfortunately we were too late for one of the pups but we did manage to uplift 3 sweet little pups and the mom.

All are happy at Dogs Trust now and will go on to be rehomed when they are ready.

January is a time of the year that rescue absolutely dreads ! January is unfortunately the month where many dogs get returned and true colours show ‼️

Another victim of this act - ALEX.

Alex is one of the most amazing doggo’s you’ll ever meet. He is social, fun and has proven such loyalty. Alex is going on a year old now so his so called family threw in the towel when it’s harder to home at this age.

Poor Alex was dropped off within an hour and a half from receiving the message. It was clear they couldn’t wait another second to be down a dog. How can people be so heartless is a question we ask ourselves daily.

Alex has joined his previous foster home where he couldn’t be happier to see his friends. This young man has a heart of gold and has been let down by humans once again - no fault of his own.

Alex would make the most amazing family companion as he is adventurous, loving and extremely social. He absolutely adores other dogs to another degree 🥹

IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT CAN GIVE THIS BOY THE HOME HE DESERVES ?! 😢🙏

Cindy was picked up in Diepsloot today with a nasty burn wound on her back.

Her owners said that they don’t know how it happened, she just came home with no skin on her back yesterday.

Either way, Cindy has been treated at Petite Paws and will soon be ready to come back to Dogs Trust to recuperate and recover.

So small and sweet, yet still an orphan 🤭

Meet little Dash - a Foxie girl dropped off at our shelter a couple weeks ago. This lovely lady may be small but she sure does have a huge personality. She loves other doggies and would make an amazing family companion. Dash has moved into a foster home where she is absolutely thriving and has adjusted well - now to find her forever home 🥰 Dash is around 9 weeks old and should stay small.

Bonded pair ! 🤩🤩

Rubble & Boo ❤️ If you’re looking to adopt an amazing duo - look no further 🥹 These handsome 2 boys were surrendered from the township as their owner was moving and couldn’t take them with. She was absolutely devastated to surrender them but she knew it was for the best.

Rubble and Boo have been together since they were just puppies ❤️ We have been looking after them in the township with food, kennels and had them sterilised so we’ve known what amazing doggies they are for years 🥰

We would love for them to go into a home together but they can be adopted separately. They are such fun, happy doggies and with so much love to give 😁 Rubble is our BIG boy and Boo is the little fox looking guy 🐶

Please share far and wide to help Rubble and Boo find what they deserve - a forever home 🏡

‼️ 💔 RETURNED ‼️💔

After 5 months of being in a home - George has been returned ! George is a 9 year old Jack Russell that has been let down human after human. George initially landed up with us as his owners were moving and left him behind with the gardener. We had him vaccinated, sterilised and chipped so he could be ready for a home. We thought we found him his forever home but apparently after 5 months being with cats, he’s too rough with them ? 🤷‍♀️

George is a real golden oldie with a young heart. He loves other dogs and gets on with everyone. When he was previously in foster, his best friend was a giant German shepherd.

George has luckily been returned to a foster home preventing him from going to the shelter. He is confused and is wondering why he was just given up on.

This handsome little Jack Russell is desperate to find his real happy ever after 😢😔

Will you be the one to change his luck around? Please consider opening your home and heart to George. 🙏

Beethoven 🐶❤️

Hand raised from just 2 weeks old ! Beethoven was dropped off at our shelter in a cardboard box… We had no idea when he last ate or where his mother may be. Watching him grow into the doggie he is today has been the most rewarding thing 🥹 Beethoven is an amazing little hound. He is around 12 weeks old and is still so petite. He has the most beautiful min pin colours but we do believe he’ll more on the small - medium size fully grown. Beethoven is an independent little soul who loves other doggies and would not be suitable as an only dog. Being hand raised, he has his own amazing personality and would truly make any family so happy 💞
