Description

Monika's Doggie Rescue is a private registered charity that believes in saving and re-homing as many dogs as we can from the council pounds.

For many years Monika Biernacki and a group of volunteers have been rescuing dogs from death row and successfully re-homing them with permanent and loving owners.

Dogs rescued from the pound are microchipped, heartworm tested and vaccinated by a veterinarian, who also gives them a basic health check and provides us with an estimate of their age. The dogs are desexed, if required, and given any additional veterinary treatment to return them to good health.

All of the rescued dogs are then cared for, awaiting adoption into a permanent loving home. Once the dogs have completed a short quarantine they are placed into a foster home and listed on our website with a photo.

DoggieRescue.com places, on average, 3 dogs per day and at any one time has over 200 dogs available for adoption. Each year we save about 1000 dogs, asking only for reimbursements of fees for basic desexing, vaccination, microchipping and heartworm testing only - generally between $250 and $345 per dog.

Monika's Doggie Rescue has a NO KILL policy so all dogs we get from the pound are re-housed. This policy includes accepting former DoggieRescue dogs back if their owners discard them.
