Save-A-Dog Scheme (SADS) is a community-based not-for-profit animal welfare organisation that saves hundreds of dogs and cats from being killed every year. We have a no-kill philosophy and provide veterinary care to sick or injured animals so they can live out their natural lifespan. SADS was established in 1985 to offer a humane alternative to the killing of unwanted dogs, especially dogs of good temperament, that would otherwise be destroyed at pounds and shelters and later included caring for and sheltering cats as well.
Victoria has one of the highest rates of pet ownership in the world. Owning pets can be a lot of fun, and pets can provide us with company, stress relief and unconditional love. Pet ownership also teaches children responsibility and helps them develop their social and nurturing skills. This site provides valuable information on pet ownership in Victoria.
As a not-for-profit organisation that receives no Government funding, we rely totally on the kindness and donations of fellow animal lovers to provide the care, food and veterinary treatment each of our animals requires.
Your kind gift today will go towards:
• Helping us to provide care and treatment for the sick, injured, lost and abandoned animals every day.
• Helping us to continue running our Shelter and provide new homes to those in need
• Helping us provide food, medical care, accommodation and lots of TLC to all at our Shelter
