What if the animal who needs us tomorrow is the one we can’t afford to help? 💔
Every day, animals find themselves on death row in Victorian pounds - through no fault of their own.
GAR rescues animals from this fate every week. But for every animal we save, there are many more still waiting for their chance.
We don’t want money to be the reason we have to say “No”.
But right now, our emergency safety net is empty. Which means we can’t be there for every animal that desperately needs us.
This Friday, we’re asking our community for just $5 to help rebuild our safety net - so we can say “Yes”.
🎯 Our goal: $20,000. $5 at a time.
We don’t want money to be the reason we have to say “No”.
Will you help?

Introducing Frankie!
Frankie found her way back to GAR after being adopted as a young lady, she has been spending some time settling into foster care and is now ready to find her forever and ever home.
Frankie is a very gentle, quiet and sweet girl. She loves relaxing in her bed or cosy teepee, but she also welcomes human attention and enjoys having people around. Frankie has been in a very busy household before making her way back to GAR and will need a calm, child-free household for her comfort in her forever home. Frankie would do well as a solo cat and in a home who is willing to give her plenty of love and allow her the time and space she needs to settle in. Frankie has lived as an indoor-only cat and must continue living indoors for her health and safety.
If you think Frankie could be the perfect addition to your family, she is ready to meet you!
Frankie is desexed, microchipped, up to date with vaccinations, flea and worm treatments.

Vinnie has been waiting over a year to find his forever home.
And honestly, we just don’t understand how this beautiful boy is still waiting.
Vinnie is a shy, quirky little soul who has come such a long way since arriving in our care. He’s learnt to play, do the zoomies, enjoy pats on his own terms and, once he trusts you, become your very loyal little shadow.
He may take time. He may need patience. He may never be the lap cat you imagined.
But he has so much love to give to the person willing to give him the time to show it.
All Vinnie needs is a quiet home, a patient human and someone who will look at him and say, “You’re home now.”
After waiting for more than a year, we would love nothing more than to see Vinnie finally find his family.
Could that be you?
🐕 SLINK 🐕
BREED: Dachshund
GENDER: Female
AGE: 6 years

Meet Slink!
Slink is cute as a button, with a personality far bigger than her little legs would suggest. Like many dachshunds, she's incredibly loyal, a little stubborn, and never shy about sharing her opinion.
Slink loves spending time outdoors, enjoying short walks and relaxing at home in a sunny spot, watching the world go by. She also takes her self-appointed role as pint-sized security officer very seriously. Property patrols are her strong suit, and a job she's incredibly chuffed about!
When it comes to meeting new people, Slink likes to take her time. She is naturally cautious and will thrive with patient, experienced people who are happy to move at her pace, give her space, and allow her build back her confidence. Once you've earned her trust, however, you'll have a devoted companion for life. She'll happily follow you everywhere, and we do mean everywhere!
Slink is crate trained and sleeps soundly in her crate overnight, although her absolute favourite place is curled up beside you on the couch.
Having experienced some significant changes in her life, Slink will need a patient family or individual who understands that building trust takes time. Her adjustment into foster care was challenging, and having strategies in place for day 1 helps with the transition. Once settled, she can manage periods alone when she has another dog for company, but long days without a companion may be a stretch (pardon the dachshund pun!).
She's a clever girl who learns quickly once settled into a routine. Food is a great motivator, and she's always happy to work hard for a tasty treat. Slink is also fully toilet trained.
While Slink isn't particularly interested in playtime, she coexists well with other dogs. She tolerates her foster brother but isn't afraid to let him know when he's getting a little out of line. She's quite the canine behaviourists! She could happily live as an only dog or alongside a calm, confident canine.
Slink would thrive in a home that offers:
- A household with no children under 12 years of age
- A confident, dog-savvy calm dog companion (optional, but welcomed)
- Someone who is home most of the time while she settles in and adjusts
- Gentle exercise and plenty of opportunities for lounging on the couch
- Patience, understanding, and extra support during her transition into a new home
- An appreciation of the unique needs of dachshunds and a commitment to helping her remain safe, secure, and healthy
If you're looking for a small dog who, in time, will become your loyal little shadow and couch mate, Slink could be the perfect match.
Slink is desexed, microchipped, up to date with vaccinations, flea and worm treatments.
**Slink has some hair loss on her ears, as shown in the photos; however, this does not bother her and is not related to any infection or underlying health concern.
