🎀🐾 OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH — BUT DID YOU KNOW OUR DOGS CAN GET IT TOO? 🐾🎀

October is traditionally all about "breast cancer awareness in women"— encouraging us to check ourselves, know the warning signs and never ignore a change. 💗

But this October, let’s remember our four-legged girls too! 🐶💕

Female dogs can develop mammary (breast) tumours, and they are particularly common in dogs that have not been spayed.

🔎 WHEN YOU CUDDLE OR GROOM YOUR GIRL, HAVE A QUICK CHECK:

🐾 Feel for any lumps or bumps
🐾 Check for one or multiple growths
🐾 Look for redness or swelling
🐾 Check for sores or ulceration
🐾 Look for discharge from the ni***es
🐾 Take note if an existing lump suddenly gets bigger or changes

📌 A FEW IMPORTANT FACTS:

🎗️ Around 1 in 4 unspayed female dogs may develop mammary tumours.

🎗️ Approximately 50% of canine mammary tumours are malignant (cancerous).

🎗️ Spaying at a young age significantly reduces the risk of mammary tumours.

❤️ AND PLEASE REMEMBER:

Not every lump is cancer. But every lump deserves to be checked by a veterinarian.

Early detection can make a difference, and treatment may involve surgery and, where necessary, additional treatment such as chemotherapy.

🐶💕 PREVENTION IS ALSO PART OF RESPONSIBLE PET OWNERSHIP.

Having your female dog spayed not only helps prevent unwanted litters — it can also significantly reduce her risk of developing mammary tumours.

So while you're checking yourself this October…

👉 CHECK YOUR GIRL TOO! 🐾

A few minutes of cuddles and checking could potentially save her life. ❤️

🎀 Breast Cancer Awareness isn't just about humans. Our dogs need checking too.

🎀 A HUGE THANK YOU, NATASHA! 🎀

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful volunteer Natasha, who dropped off a big box filled with beautiful ribbon and cellophane for our JMAW table at the Feesmark! 🐾❤️

Natasha is always willing to lend a helping hand whenever we put out a call for assistance, and we truly appreciate her kindness, generosity and continued support.

These thoughtful donations make such a difference and help us create beautiful items for our fundraising table — all in support of the animals in our care and the work we do in our community. 🐶🐱

🐾 A BIG THANK YOU! 🐾
A heartfelt thank you to Wanda, and to everyone who has supported John Moore Animal Welfare by dropping off their empty Douwe Egberts coffee jars for us. ❤️
These jars may seem like a small thing, but to us they are incredibly useful and help us with our ongoing fundraising and packaging efforts.
Every jar donated, every item given, and every act of kindness makes a difference to the animals we care for. 🐶🐱
Thank you for thinking of JMAW and for supporting our work. We truly appreciate each and every one of you! 🙏❤️

🐾❤️ AN INCREDIBLE THANK YOU FROM JMAW ❤️🐾

Yesterday, we reached out to our community asking for help towards the R8,700 repair bill for our trusty clinic bakkie.

Today, we are quite honestly overwhelmed with gratitude.

A very special and incredibly generous supporter has stepped forward and covered the entire R8,700 repair bill. ❤️

This wonderful person has asked to remain anonymous, and we will absolutely respect her wishes. But we could not let this incredible act of kindness pass without saying a very heartfelt THANK YOU.

As a small animal welfare organisation, an unexpected expense of R8,700 is a big amount for us. Our bakkie is also so much more than just a vehicle — it is an essential part of the work we do.

It gets us to our community clinics, transports animals for sterilisation and helps us collect and return animals to families who often have no other means of transport.

Your generosity has lifted an enormous burden from our shoulders and made it possible for us to get our bakkie repaired without taking precious funds away from the animals in our care. 🐕🐈

Our bakkie is not quite back on the road yet — we are currently waiting for the necessary parts to arrive, and we are hopeful that she will be up and running again sometime next week. 🚐🔧

But thanks to one extraordinarily kind person, the R8,700 repair bill is completely covered. 🙏❤️

To our anonymous angel: please know that your kindness means more to us than we could ever adequately put into words.

You didn't simply pay a repair bill.

You helped keep John Moore Animal Welfare Foundation moving.
You helped keep our clinic going.
And ultimately, you helped us continue being there for animals who need us most. 🐾

From every one of us at John Moore Animal Welfare — and from all the paws your kindness will help along the way —

THANK YOU. From the bottom of our hearts. ❤️🐾

We are incredibly, incredibly grateful.

🚨 YOUR DOG’S NEXT LITTER COULD BECOME SOMEONE ELSE’S PROBLEM.

Read that again.

Every puppy born needs more than a cute photo and a loving family.

They need food. Veterinary care. Vaccinations. Protection from parasites. Training. A safe home. And a commitment for life!

And when there aren't enough homes?

💔 Puppies get given away.
💔 Dogs are abandoned.
💔 Animals end up on the streets.
💔 Shelters and welfare organisations are overwhelmed.

At John Moore Animal Welfare, we see the consequences of unwanted breeding in our communities.

And this is why we are so passionate about STERILISATION.

🐾 Your dog does NOT need “just one litter.”

🐾 Your children do NOT need to experience the miracle of puppies at the expense of finding homes for them afterwards.

🐾 And “we'll find homes for them” is not a plan — unless those homes are already committed, responsible and prepared for the lifelong cost of another animal.

🚨 STERILISATION IS NOT CRUEL.

Bringing litter after litter into a world already struggling with unwanted animals is where the real suffering begins.

Sterilisation can also reduce the risk of certain reproductive diseases and can help reduce some hormone-driven behaviours such as roaming and seeking a mate.

But for JMAW, the biggest reason is simple:

THE LITTER. PREVENT THE SUFFERING.

We work in an under-resourced community where many families simply cannot afford private veterinary costs.

That's why JMAW is working to make sterilisation more accessible.

💛 R500 can sponsor ONE sterilisation.

Imagine what happens when a community comes together and sponsors 10.
20.
50.

That's 50 animals who won't contribute to another cycle of unwanted litters.

You don't have to rescue every animal.

Help us prevent the next one from needing rescue.🐾

🚨 HELP US GET OUR CLINIC BAKKIE BACK ON THE ROAD! 🚨

Our trusty clinic bakkie is currently in for repairs, and we have received a repair bill of R8,700. 💔

Our bakkie is an essential part of the work we do at John Moore Animal Welfare. It is used to:

🐾 Get to our weekly community clinics
🐾 Transport animals to and from sterilisation procedures
🐾 Help us reach animals and families in under-resourced communities who need our assistance most

Without our bakkie, our ability to provide these vital services is seriously affected.

🙏 We are appealing to our wonderful supporters for donations towards the R8,700 repair bill.

No donation is too small. Every R50, R100 or R200 brings us closer to getting our wheels back on the road! ❤️

Every month, dozens of animals are born into suffering — not because they are unwanted, but because help didn’t come in time.

Earlier this year, Rex, a much-loved dog in Nkqubela, was sterilized through John Moore Animal Welfare. His owner wanted to do the right thing but simply could not afford the procedure. Without sterilization, Rex would have contributed to countless unwanted litters — puppies facing neglect, illness, or abandonment.

Because of one sterilization, that cycle stopped.

This is why we are launching our Changemaker Stop Order Donation Drive 💛

Sterilization is the most effective, humane way to reduce animal suffering — and it only works when it is sustainable.

By becoming a Changemaker, your monthly stop order helps us:
🐾 Prevent unwanted litters
🐾 Reduce neglect and cruelty at the source
🐾 Protect animals and support responsible pet ownership in our communities

A small monthly gift creates lifelong impact.

🚨 THE ANIMALS BORN TODAY WILL NEED HOMES TOMORROW.

And the heart breaking reality is that there are already more dogs and cats needing homes than there are families able to take them in. 💔

At John Moore Animal Welfare (JMAW), we see the consequences of this every week in the communities we serve.

Unplanned litters.
Puppies and kittens given away because there are “too many”.
Female dogs having litter after litter.
Animals growing up without proper veterinary care.

And the cycle continues.

🐾 One unsterilised female can produce litter after litter.

That is why at JMAW, we don't want to only respond to suffering after it happens.

We want to prevent it.

STERILISATION IS PREVENTION!!!

Every dog we help sterilise means fewer unwanted puppies entering an already overwhelmed animal population.

Every sterilisation is one step towards fewer animals being abandoned, neglected or left to survive on the streets.

Our goal is to make sterilisation accessible to families in under-resourced communities — because **being unable to afford a sterilisation should not mean an animal must continue producing litter after litter.**

🐶 Sponsor a sterilisation for R500

You may not be able to rescue an animal yourself.
But you can help prevent another unwanted litter.

💛 Help JMAW break the cycle — one sterilisation at a time.
