Nestled in the mounta
ins is the most remarkable sanctuary, for dogs who have lost their families or have been rescued from dire situations. Every day the dedicated team at Dogtown provide individual care to each of these dogs in a peaceful, tranquil setting while they wait for their forever homes. There is often a misconception that all rescue dogs are going to be damaged in some way, but that’s simply not true. There are plenty of wonderful dogs at Dogtown SA, who through no fault of their own have found themselves homeless and are just hoping for a second chance at a new life in a loving home. Sometimes however there are sadly a few dogs that have had a rough time and are struggling. At Dogtown we have a dedicated rehabilitation area where our full time qualified trainers and behaviourists work tirelessly each day, improving the lives of these misunderstood dogs. Often being their last glimmer of hope to become well-adjusted dogs who can live full and happy lives. Our retirement village provides a safe and loving environment for the more mature residents who often require special medical care and are sadly dumped at animal shelters when they become too much trouble. With your help, we can SAVE more lives and provide the best care for the abandoned and abused, while we search for loving families that will give them their happy ever after. We aim to offer a lifelong commitment to the dogs that come into our care and a lifetime of support to their new families.

I didn’t always have a name. Just another dog on the street, dodging cars and sleeping wherever I could find shelter. People walked past me every day… some looked, some didn’t. But then someone saw me — really saw me — and my life changed.
Dogtown brought me in when I was tired, hurting, and unsure if I mattered. But they showed me love, and I started to believe that maybe I do.
Now? I’m a calm, gentle guy who lives for a good sniffari, soft toys, and quiet cuddles. I’ve learned my manners, I’ve made doggy friends, and I’ve started dreaming — dreaming of a family who’ll finally make me feel like I belong.
