Storm’s Success Story!

Being an expat’s wife and in Cape Town and here for only 3 years, it was difficult to find things to fill my days.  When I found an ad for DARG in an old magazine, I knew this would be a great opportunity.  Although I could never adopt a pet here since I couldn’t take [...]

Henry loves his new home!

Here’s a heart-warming success story sent in by Emma and Henry…
I went to DARG last year May looking to adopt a dog. I was looking for an adult dog, as I could not provide the time for a puppy. Never did I expect to find my now best friend, Henry (Jack Russel cross Foxy).
When I [...]

Success! Khaya & Ujo are happy!

Here’s another great success story.
This one was actually sent in a while ago, and our lazy webmaster forgot all about it until now, when  he was going through some old emails. Anyway, better late than never, we always say.
Look at these photos sent in by Michelle and see how well Khaya and Ujo (now called [...]

Success! Bambi loves her new family!

We always love it when people send us news on animals they’ve adopted. We don’t just process animals through our centre, but come to know and love each one that we meet. Here’s an email from Carla about the lovely pup she has taken home and made part of her family…
“I am just sending a [...]

Here’s another letter from the mum of a happily homed pet. This time it’s Lila Stapleton, who is the thrilled mum of a gorgeous kitty!
Dearest DARG.
Just a quick note to tell how happy our baby is. We adopted Alex (originally Jason) from DARG in August 2008. I am so happy to tell you that there [...]

Success! Sam loves her new home!

Anja sent us in a quick update on her new ex-DARG family member! She had this to say:
“Attached is a photograph of ‘new girl’ Sam with ‘old boy’ Benjamin. Ben’s not looking too impressed in the photo but this was on their first day together.
They’re bonding nicely and although he is still very jealous, he [...]

Success – Life on the farm!

Sarah has sent us some photos of Beauty aka Levi frolicking with her other doggie in the farm river. The two seem to be becoming fast friends and love their walks (and runs!) around the farm.
She really seems to love the water, and who can blame her after so many warm summer days?
Best of luck [...]

This little update in from the mommy of one of our rehomed kitties! Check it out…
“I thought you might enjoy a little update on “Elton”, a ginger tom I adopted in June 2007. He never did acknowledge his name, and has since been renamed “Sinus” because of all his snorting and snoring! Not quite [...]

To everyone at DARG
Thank you for allowing us to adopt Trudie (now Bella).  I have attached

Tara has now got over his initial jealousy and they are already playing
together very nicely.
Bella is truly a sweet little girl and we are enjoying [...]

Success! Pepper loves his new home!

We have been meaning to write to you for ages, but have just been too busy enjoying the company of our new dog, Pepper (known at DARG as Sergeant Pepper).
A little insecure of his new surroundings at first, Pepper is now fully settled, feels completely at home and is getting more confident and cheekier by [...]

Success! Sheila settles in…

Karen Boshoff let us know that her adopted dog, Sheila is doing very well! Karen says:
“She fits in perfectly. Loves the couch, sleeps inside at night on my bed.
She is not aggressive with the kids at all and gets a lot of snacks and my son shares his porridge with her every morning.
She found it [...]
