Dog Protection Society

Although this facility is a rescue and rehoming zone, the Dog Protection Society is also a kenneling facility. The DPS offers boarding services to pets whose parents have to be away. The society accepts aggressive and non-social dogs and offers rehabilitation services upon request.

The facility was founded by Graham and Theresa Elizabeth Fitzgerald in 1973. The facility was founded to rescue dogs who do not have a home. The facility’s main objectives include being kind and compassionate to dogs, to foster the rights of conscientious dog owners, and promoting the humane treatment of animals.

The facility makes provisions for each guest based on their temperament. The large single kennels cater to dogs who prefer to be kept separate from others, while the traditional kennels house dogs who do not play well with others.

Guests boarding at the facility can also enjoy grooming services and breed-specific styling at an extra charge. All proceeds from the boarding kennels got towards the charitable work of rescuing and rehoming dogs.
