Why Adopt a Small Dog in Gauteng?

Gauteng has a wonderful community of dog lovers. Through Little Doggy Rescue, each adoption application is considered against the needs of the specific fur baby, with the aim of finding a safe and compatible long-term home. If you do not see a suitable doggy today, our listings are updated as new dogs become available.

Before You Apply to Adopt

  • Read the individual dog’s profile carefully, including their location, routine and compatibility needs.
  • Consider your existing pets, children, work routine, holidays and the dog’s exercise or grooming needs.
  • Make sure your home and garden are secure, including gates, fencing and pool safety where relevant.
  • Allow for ongoing veterinary care, food, grooming and other normal costs of responsible pet ownership.
