Buddy had been hurt in ways you could see…and in ways you couldn’t see
This three-year-old Kelpie cross had a shocking wound. He’d been tied up – for months – with a heavy metal chain around his neck. The chain had become deeply embedded in his skin.
He was in pain, and he was terrified.
This winter, thousands of animals will arrive through our shelter doors. An increasing number of them, like Buddy, will have complex needs. They'll need urgent vet treatment, as well as patient behavioural support to overcome their fears and anxieties.
Animals like Buddy need more time in our care. That means greater costs.
Animal lovers like you from across the state are uniting to raise $380,000 to help care for animals this winter. We have until 30 June.
Please will you help?
Your kind tax-deductible gift could help rescue an animal like Buddy and provide everything from urgent vet care to behavioural support. You can help rescued animals heal and find the loving home they deserve.
