The ever-increasing number of stray and neglected dogs adds fuel to the cycle of abuse, suffering and neglect. With this in mind, African Tails’ key focus areas are:

• Sterilization – We fund sterilizations in Du Noon and Joe Slovo township, to date we have successfully sterilized around 300 dogs.
• Feeding – African Tails feeds over 150 township dogs every day in Joe Slovo & Du Noon.
• Rescue and re-homing – So far we have rescued around 100 puppies and dogs, giving them the second chance they desperately need and deserve. The process includes a site visit, official documentation and ensuring that the dog is sterilized, healthy and up-to-date with all vaccinations.
• Education – presently focusing on educating the urban, economically mobile public about the situation in the townships. Planning to branch into educating the Du Noon/ Joe Slovo community about pet care and basic animal behaviour.
