Pets
Across the world, countless animals suffer from abuse, abandonment and neglect. Without our intervention they are left in poor conditions, often without proper care, food or shelter and therefore face bleak futures. That’s where we come in. Together we can a make difference in their lives.
Do You Want To Help?
You can make a difference in the lives of animals, whether it’s donating food items, blankets, or volunteering at your local animal shelter. Adopting an animal is a simple act of kindness which provides a Soft Landing that goes a long way.

Meet Maverick
In support of the work they do, dotsure.co.za sponsored a Guide Dog in training. A puppy-in-training sponsorship assists with the cost of training and vet bills.
In addition to financial support, a R100 000 sponsorship includes the added benefit of naming your Guide Dog in training. The #DotsureFamily voted for their favourite name.
Maverick, litter M (10 in total), is a Labrador/Golden Retriever cross. He is currently in training to become a Guide Dog for the visually impaired.
Maverick loves leaves, and playing in water. He is strongly motivated by treats.

When a case arises, our vet partners bring it to our attention. Whether it is an injured, abandoned puppy found on the side of road, contributing to rabies vaccinations in high-risk areas, or the neutering of feral cats to assist with population control; dotsure.co.za contributes R2 500 towards the vet bill.
dotsure.co.za’s support ensures vets can do their job without financial concerns and, most importantly, an animal can get the healthcare they need.
