Mandela Day 2024
Before spending 27 years as a political prisoner, former president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela, lived with his family with a Rhodesian Ridgeback named Gompo, in a small house on Vilakazi Street in Soweto, Johannesburg.
He was famous for saying: “If we do not do something to prevent it, Africa's animals, and the places in which they live, will be lost to our world, and her children, forever.
Before it is too late, we need your help to lay the foundation that will preserve this precious legacy long after we are gone.”
This year on Mandela Day, why don't you extend your enthusiasm to ssd and give back to man’s best friend in all sorts of ways by showing the same sort of compassion as Nelson Mandela did to animal welfare. Let us honour his contribution and his love for his dog, Gompo and all animals.

This week, from 7 to 13 August 2023, we celebrate International Assistance Dog week.
For over 12 years The Smart Dog- Animal Behaviour and Training Centre has been training dogs and their handlers.
As an offshoot of The Smart Dog, Smart Service Dog trains Psychiatric, Mobility , Diabetic Alert, Seizure Alert and Autism Support Dogs (all classified under the banner of Assistance Dogs), thus changing the lives of many disabled adults and children in South Africa.
We assist people with disabilities to lead a more independent and fruitful life.
We do not just supply a trained dog but we also provide all the back up that our clients may need for the duration of their relationship with us, from ongoing training support and advice, to accessing well-priced good quality dog food, to Psychological support.
The training of our Assistance Dogs is only possible through the kind donations from you (during the foster period, before an Assistance Dog is placed, all expenses fall upon us), as well as the practical input from our foster families.
For more information contact: [email protected] or mobile 081 270 4672
We are changing lives one dog at a time.
National Assistance Dog 4th August 2023.
Assistance Dog Day is celebrated on August 4 every year.
Dogs are a man’s best friend because of their loyalty and dedication, but assistant dogs take this to a whole new level.
These dogs help people with disabilities or illnesses to navigate through life.
They help where they can and perform simple tasks like guiding their owner’s path, helping fetch an item, and lots of other activities.
These dogs and their trainers deserve to be celebrated, and so this brought about Assistance Dog Day which aims to raise funds and increase awareness of the work they do.
It makes up part of International Assistance Dog Week.
