About the charities
Guardian Angel Animal Rescue is an exceptional not-for-profit organisation in Adelaide that focuses on training and supporting dogs who face challenges such as anxiety, aggression, reactivity, and a lack of obedience and manners.
At Guardian Angel Animal Rescue, their commitment to these dogs extends beyond the initial rescue. They value that each dog requires individual attention and specialised training to overcome their unique challenges. This remarkable organisation not only strives to find these beautiful creatures the loving homes they deserve, but they also go above and beyond by providing ongoing behavioural support throughout the dog’s entire life.
The impact of Guardian Angel Animal Rescue’s work cannot be overstated. By rescuing and rehabilitating these dogs, they are not only transforming their lives but also improving the lives of the families who open their hearts and homes to these remarkable animals. Through their tireless efforts and compassionate approach, Guardian Angel Animal Rescue is truly making a difference in the lives of dogs and their human companions, creating a brighter future for all.
All book sale proceeds are donated to Geelong Animal Welfare Society. They are dedicated to the welfare of companion animals. They care for and rehome lost or relinquished pets and provide community education & services that enable responsible animal ownership.
