We pride ourselves on responsible adoption practices. This means that, on adoption, every pet rehomed through SAHARA will be:
In exceptional circumstances, the abovementioned may need to be arranged during or shortly after adoption. Should this be required, it will be agreed in consultation with the applicant (new owner).
Our adoption fee seeks to cover the above-mentioned costs, administration fees and overheads to keep SAHARA running.
We would like to highlight that SAHARA takes in the ill, injured, seniors and animals on Death Row that are often overlooked, even by other rescues and shelters. This means we incur higher than usual medical expenses for a number of our animals that our adoption fee does not come close to covering.
We make every effort to ensure the animals are in good health at the time of adoption. We can offer no guarantees as to their condition long term.
At the end of two-week settling in period, all ongoing costs are the responsibility of the new owner (e.g. flea and worming treatments, medical costs, ongoing vaccination).
Our adoption contract includes a clause that should the animal need re-homing at any time in its life, we are to be contacted and the animal returned to us.
To adopt one of our gorgeous dogs or puppies, please fill out an adoption application located on this page – please click here to apply to adopt.
We ask that you familiarise yourself with our Adoption Process and ensure you provide us with the required information.
Consider a beautiful rescue animal to become the newest member of your household!

We pride ourselves on responsible adoption practices. This means that, on adoption, every pet rehomed through SAHARA will be:
In exceptional circumstances, the abovementioned may need to be arranged during or shortly after adoption. Should this be required, it will be agreed in consultation with the applicant (new owner).
Our adoption fee seeks to cover the above-mentioned costs, administration fees and overheads to keep SAHARA running.
We would like to highlight that SAHARA takes in the ill, injured, seniors and animals on Death Row that are often overlooked, even by other rescues and shelters. This means we incur higher than usual medical expenses for a number of our animals that our adoption fee does not come close to covering.
We make every effort to ensure the animals are in good health at the time of adoption. We can offer no guarantees as to their condition long term.
At the end of two-week settling in period, all ongoing costs are the responsibility of the new owner (e.g. flea and worming treatments, medical costs, ongoing vaccination).
Our adoption contract includes a clause that should the animal need re-homing at any time in its life, we are to be contacted and the animal returned to us.
To adopt one of our gorgeous dogs or puppies, please fill out an adoption application located on this page – please click here to apply to adopt.
We ask that you familiarise yourself with our Adoption Process and ensure you provide us with the required information.
