Hair Of The Dog Rescue Inc

We are a Victorian based rescue that is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of dogs. RE146926 Welcome to our page!

We are a newly formed Gippsland based dog rescue. We are a strong team of close friends who have all been working passionately in rescue for many years combined. We decided now was the time to come together and start our own rescue. This allows us to fully dedicate our passion of animals and animal rescue into developing a rescue based on our vast experience. We will cover all of Victoria and hope

to branch out interstate in the future. Our rescues will come from pounds, shelters and community re homing. All of our rescue dogs will be vet assessed and treated as soon as they come into our care. They will also be temperament tested. They will be desexed, microchipped and up to date on all vaccinations and worming etc before being re homed. Our adoption process will not be first to apply but based on who we believe will best suit each individual dogs needs. We are a family based rescue and welcome you to help with fundraising, promotion and possible foster care. Please email us at [email protected] or send us a msg on facebook for further info.

Meet Kevin!

Kevin is a 1 year old golden retriever who is now looking for his furever home.

He is a beautiful and loving Goldie who is full of energy.
This beautiful boy loves walks along the beach and trail and he loves chicken!
He gets on well with cats and young children. However, he does like to chew the cats bed. We believe he would be suitable for a family who has time at home with him.

He comes desexed with a gastropexy and fully vaccinated. He’s got some great manners already but needs more training at dog school.

If you have the right family home for this loveable goofball. Shoot us a DM with details about your current dogs/ living situation.

Please Meet Dixie and Belvedere

Chalk and cheese but Two pairs in a pod.

Dixie is a 5 year old French bulldog that loves to protect her brother.

Belvedere is a 4 year old Bichon frise who adores his sister.

These two young healthy dogs came to us recently as a bonded pair.

They love to play. They love each other and they love chasing chickens.

They are a bonded pair and would ideally be rehoused together. We would suggest not a cat household. They are best suited as the only dogs in the household. Dixie is a little dog reactive. Dog depending. They are child friendly.

If you have room for two very special dogs. Direct message us please with your name, living situation and experience with brachycephalic breeds.

Meet Billie!

This little 9 week old bundle of joy is the smallest of her litter and is the last to find her furever home.

Billie is a jugalier (pug x cavie x jack Russell). She has a powerful little personality and loves giving kisses.

Puppies take a lot of work so you need to be willing to put in the hours to continue her toilet training and dog training.

She is tiny and mighty, so if you want a little Billie in your life. Shoot us a DM about yourself, your phone number, your living situation e.g suburban vs rural, information about any other dogs you might have and if you have had pugs before.

We will filter out results and get back to you with confirmation.

This is a very difficult post yesterday The beautiful Lola Elizabeth and the sweet Prudence Hope both tragically lost their lives to a snake bite. These girls have known nothing but love, our family are devastated and life will not be the same without the antics of these two.
Lorraine, Adrian, Trevor and Julieanne our hearts break with yours. RIP Girls until we all meet again over the Rainbow 🌈 Bridge.

Huge thanks to Di, Jerry and her infamous bus, that has racked up thousands of kilometres for rescue. Though Di is now retired, her heart will be forever attached to aiding all creatures large and small, answering the call for much needed kangaroo pellets. We love and admire all that you have done and continue to do..

We are more than a rescue. We love helping our community in Victoria in our own way. With the fires over this past week, so many animals and people have been displaced. So we wanted to help in some way.

We are sending over 30 + bags of working dog food worth over $1900 to our fire stricken areas in Victoria.

This was combined with even more donations of dog/ cat food and flea treatment by Liv and the team of Peto Pakenham. Thank you!

2025 - the Dogs we said goodbye to in Rescue.

Focusing on the wins and the dogs we saved is great but It’s important to acknowledge those who we have lost as well.

The beautiful Boris - he was a true heart dog and was very special in his own right. He was a massive loss.

Oreo - although he wasn’t a dog he identified as a rescue dog. He was a beautiful pig with a big personality. Oreo was always happy as a pig in mud. He lived an amazing last year with us.

Nana - this old lady came to us from the Baw Baw Shire pound. She lived her last days loved and in comfort.

Barkley - came to us last year and found a beautiful home. Unfortunately we lost him later this year due to his heart condition. He had amazing last months and was very loved.

Saffy and Gilly - this very special pair were close to our hearts. They had a beautiful life with the lovely Di and they passed within months of each other.

Until we meet them again.
