Dogs Deserve Better Rehabilitation Centre

Dogs Deserve Better Rehabilitation Centre Dogs Deserve Better SA is run by Natasha Theunissen. we are a outreach organization. I strongly do not believe in euthanizing dogs, DOGS DESERVE BETTER!!!

She strives to protect and rehabilitate dogs that are abused and neglected by the informal communities of the Western Cape. About Us

All adoptions I feel don’t always work out at other animal rescue places as they don’t get contact with the human all day. I am trying something new, the same way, when I’m working on the farms or small towns with people that dogs they don’t want. If the dog is ill

or has mange or just badly neglected, I transform their pet into a happy dog and teach them how a dog should be treated and in the same way they become proud of their dog. I cannot take in every dog, then I will be inundated with unwanted dogs (I don’t have the support or space to take in all the dogs) most people seem to want to adopt a puppy and not a dog. Most rescue centers often opt to put the down because the of mange or being frightened to deal with or abused too badly. As I have said before, adopting a puppy from me, with your donation, helps me pay for the sterilization of the mum, and stop the abuse of dogs here. In love and light from the pack and myself,

Dear ANIMAL lovers.
so it's been awhile since I've been back in the townships, many dogs have passed away since I've not been there, that I was looking after. my sanctuary is so busy here but my heart can't stop thinking about the townships dogs.
I have to find balance yo do both jobs. to go back to the townships I need alot of dog food, kennels , bedding , leashes and collars. and of my vet bill covered cause I know what I'm going to see is going to be heartbreaking again . a new person is coming next week to see if I can train her to work with the pack here.
so bottom line. I'll need huge support, this does not just happen without real support.
I'm going to trust in the process and see if the universe think this is what I should do again. I'll deall with the heartache, but I'll need your support.
Sending you Love and Light from the fur golden oldies and township doggies and myself....

update on Trossie.
remember he was the little doh in the townships without a dog house in the rain no shelter, took a awhile for me to get permission from the owner to give him his basic, and when I did I was working late in the townships ans saw he was again in the rain. so I had do it all over again. so finally I got him to the sanctuary and he was adopted. the day that Daisy passed away I got a call from the new partners and said he fell off the couch and passed away.
another little soul gone. rip little Trossie
