An animal rescue centre that assists stray dogs in Diepsloot received a number of 20kg bags of dog food thanks to a local organisation on May 6.
The Dogs Trust has been working with Manderston Canine Academy in Midrand where they rent kennels and the dogs, rescued or surrendered, live and are looked. They received a donation from UmVuzo Lifestyle Creators of high-protein dog food.
The trust specialises in ensuring dogs are sterilised but also the basic treatment of dogs that are surrendered or rescued to be rehomed or live out the rest of their days at the canine academy.
Lee-Anne Ramahlo of Dogs Trust said, “Last year, we managed to sterilise over 2 000 dogs and this year were are pretty close to that number. We work closely with Woodrock Animal Rescue and Society for Animals in Distress.”
She added that the dog food donation will go a long way. “UmVuzo Lifestyle Creators are truly a great organisation, and we are super grateful for their donation. It is enough food to last us for a while in feeding the dogs, so we are incredibly grateful.”
