Help keep Bark Angel doors open

The non-profit organisation feeds, treats for ticks and fleas, spays, inoculates, rescues and re-homes abused and abandoned dogs and puppies in the greater Bluff and Clairwood area.

ONE is welcomed by warm embraces from Debbie Moss’ fluffy babies upon arrival at Bark Angel, which is also her home on the Bluff.

The non-profit organisation feeds, treats for ticks and fleas, spays, inoculates, rescues and re-homes abused and abandoned dogs and puppies in the greater Bluff and Clairwood area. This worthy organisation does, however, occasionally fall on tough times with little to no food at their donations bin at the Bluff Spar from time to time. “We are running short on the little funds we have at the moment. Every little food and monetary donation goes a long way in making sure we never let any doggie down without food,” said Debbie.

Debbie Moss is showered by love and kisses from her pups.

Before Bark Angel was formed, Debbie used to go around feeding and helping care for dogs around the disadvantaged areas of Clairwood. It wasn’t long until she started receiving donations of dog food from community members and friends who supported the work she was doing. After taking in her first puppy, Bark Angel was formed.

“I don’t go home from work, sometimes it’s a madhouse but I couldn’t be happier. We feed about 120 dogs in Clairwood, the 20 I keep at home as well as other dogs in the Bluff to assist families who can’t afford to. None of this is possible without the help of the general public, from the food donations, monetary contributions, support from Montclair Animal Hospital and those spreading the word on the work we do, it all goes a long way in helping us keep our dear angels happy and healthy,” said Debbie.

Bark Angel finance manager Heather Barclay and founder Debbie Moss share a moment with their beloved puppies at Bark Angel.

Bark Angel appeals to the community to assist them in their ongoing mission to care for abandoned and injured dogs, with food donations as well as contributions towards their ongoing vet bill.

To assist and for more information on how to assist Bark Angel call Debbie on 082-291-4373.
