Saving Dogs.
Strengthening Communities.
Helping remote communities build lasting solutions so animals and people can thrive.
Over 10,000 puppies
from across remote FNQ die each year from preventable conditions such as parvovirus, parasites, and starvation.
More than 60%
of adult dogs arriving from remote communities are carrying heartworm – a deadly but preventable disease.
Over half
of the dogs we rescue arrive in crisis, requiring urgent medical treatment in addition to their routine veterinary care.
Parasites
pass easily from animals to children, causing lifelong conditions such as malnutrition, anaemia, and organ damage.
RAA RESCUES DOGS IN CRISIS...
But we don't stop there.
Lasting solutions comes when local people are empowered with the tools and support they need. That’s why we partner with remote communities to tackle the root causes of animal suffering through prevention, rescue, and community-led solutions.
Together, we’re building healthier futures for both animals and people.
