We are a registered incorporated not for profit animal welfare charity that dedicates our time to helping animals find their ways into lifelong loving homes. We rescue alot of dogs and cats from death row in country pounds. When we have the room we may take surrendered animals in need. We also take in farm animal and help them find homes.

We work closely with council and try to help as many animals as possible.
Our Rescue number is R251000078

Our adoption process is easy. You will receive a application for the animals you are interested in. Please full that in and send it back to us.

Even though you may be first to message, this does not always guarantee you will be chosen to adopt. By no means do we run on a "first in, first served basis". We aim to ensure that our animals are adopted into the most suitable home for them and the new family.

With all our animals, we go on what our vet has told us and what we believe the breed and age to be. We never guarantee the breed or age but take the best educated guess.

Please note: Our shelter is located in the Snowy Mountains. We are a 5 hour drive from Sydney and Melbourne and 2 to 3 hours from Canberra.
