This past rainy season the Sanctuary faced flooding twice. Our weather is changing and we have only three months, during Winter, to prepare for the coming rainy season. We truly need your assistance to make sure we are ready for any possible future flooding.

I have risked it all. I took crazy chances. I fought. I lost my soul. But there is no denying that since I won the battle of my life and I finally got legal ownership/custody of these boys and girls, they have flourished. No more uncertainty. No more fear of anyone ever hitting them. No more loneliness. No more stress. If you compare photos taken before I legally had them, compared to now, it is definitely different. When the dogs in your care all look like they have a smile wrapped right across their faces, you must be doing something right, right? My heart, for all of you…. You have my whole heart in your perfect little paws ♥️🐾

If you feel like you want to question your life choices all the time, I would highly recommend you get one, two or more of these creatures. They will drive you insane, get sick for no reason and cost you a lot of money. After a groot skrik, we think Alaska is okay and ready to take on the world again 🙏🏼🤍🖤

Vet bills, food bills, bills, bills, bills…. Causing me sleepless nights and stomach ailments. Receiving R5000 towards our vet bill, from someone who wishes to remain anonymous…. That is a big deal! Thank you, beautiful soul, for this incredible contribution towards our vet bills. Ethan seems to be feeling much better. No tummy issues, or vomiting 🙏🏼🐾 #pitbulllove #lovepitbulls #rescuepitbulls #pitbullsoftiktok #pitbulllife #pitbullrescue #bullbreeds #bulldog #pitbullterrier

To say I am extremely proud of how far this boy has come, is an understatement. Those who saw how explosive he was and how he would test and challenge humans, will be able to confirm that this guy, has come a very, very long way 🐾🥰 We couldn’t allow children anywhere near him, for a while. And look at him now. Tarzan. Such a magnificent dog! Still a bit of a nutter. But a really cool guy. #pitbullboy #pitbull #rescuepitbull #animalsanctuary #animalrescue #pitbullrescue #pitbullsoftiktok

Lucy… Lucille. Where do I even start? The cruelty you endured in Cape Town, is unimaginable. So much so that it moved me to decide I will undertake a non stop round trip, by car, to fetch you. Your body was so scarred. Used. Abused. And while the light and love did come back into your eyes, the scars remained. A lifetime reminder of what monsters did to you. How you forgave the very species that defiled you and who served you hell on earth, is beyond my reasoning abilities. You adored my two boys. You were such a sweet lady. Then someone noticed you and made you a part of their family. Today this beautiful couple delivered the news that you have been called home. Liver cancer came and silently damaged your body, internally. Heaven is richer. An angel arrived. A heart as pure as white arctic snow. A soul more precious than diamonds and gold. Heaven is yours, lady who would climb on my desk to sit in the new tyre bed. I am grateful that I could drive for almost 29 hours, scoop you up and get you into the best home ever. Your mom and dad are absolutely devastated. But the love they gave you for almost 5 years, cannot ever be measured. They adored you and you adored them. Thank you, lady Lucy, for being the forgiving, loving dog that you were. And thank you to your parents for the life and love they gave you. RIP Lucille 🤍

Watching your child break, is a whole new level of heartbreak. On 11 May 2024, on my son Matheo’s birthday, Marley arrived. I saw the look in his eyes when he saw her. I saw that look only once before, with a puppy named Tiffany. His heart broke when Tiffany passed. I saw this same look with Marley. I told him “Don’t fall in love, Matheo.” But he did. He fell hard. And so did Marley. The love these two shared in the past 10 months, was beautiful. We tried, we fought. But cancer won. And today Matheo broke, as he had to walk his ‘Stinky’ over to Heaven. I always prayed that my kids will have my heart. But to watch them carry the hurt I always carry within me, that hurts a lot. Rest sweet little miss Marbles. You leave a very deep cut in the heart of your boy. We are all very sad over losing you.

You are my sunshine. My sunshine was taken away. I don’t really know how or when exactly it started, but whenever Teddy was scared, I would softly sing him this song. Ted was sent here from Woodrock. When we first met, he snarled at me and tried to attack me through a reïnforced steel gate. Foamy 🩸 all over his face. The first words I softly spoke to him “You may want to eat me now. But watch, you and I, we are going to be like this 🤞🏼.” And we were. Teddy didn’t love anyone, but he loved me. He adored me. And I loved him. Dearly. End of last year, Ted developed a tiny lump next to his nose. He was diagnosed with bone cancer. The lump became a bit bigger. Today I took him to the vet and the lump could slightly move on the bone. The vet said it is possible that it’s actually bone cyst, as it moves and then it can be removed. On opening the lump up, it looked like a cap that can pop off. It did pop off but under it was clear spongy bone cancer. Today I decided to not let Teddy suffer. He peacefully went, while under sedation. Everyone who knows me and Teddy, knows the close bond we had. He adored me. If I was with him, he would tolerate other people. If not, no chance. He wouldn’t play with anyone, but me. I love you Tedooorus. Always have, always will. Never did I think that my first words to you would become such a reality. Where you are now, you are friends with everyone and nothing scares you anymore. Play your heart out, my sunshine.
