This Valentine’s Day, Saturday 14 February, open your heart to finding your new best friend at TEARS Animal Rescue Open Kennel Day on Lekkerwater Road in Sunnydale (Kommetjie) from 10 am till 2 pm.
TEARS Operations Manager, Mandy Store, says,
“We are inviting the public to visit our facilities and tour around the kennels to see all our beautiful dogs and gorgeous puppies looking for a loving forever home. We can’t think of a better way to say ‘I love you always’ to your human Valentine than with a little or large bundle of furry love that will adore you both forever.”
The kennels will be spruced up in the spirit of Valentine’s Day in celebration, and it’s a chance to see the kennels that have recently been rebuilt after the fire.

ABOUT TEARS ANIMAL RESCUE:
TEARS is a pro-life, non-profit organisation established in 1999 (registered in terms of Section 18A of the Income Tax Act) whose core aim is to rescue, treat, rehabilitate, reunite, and rehome lost, abandoned, abused, and neglected companion animals and to educate pet owners and the youth living in the four under-resourced communities within which we operate.
We strive to meet the needs of the under-resourced communities in the Southern Peninsula by providing:
● free sterilisations and subsidised medical support that includes vaccinations, deworming, and parasite control
● access to two TEARS mobile clinics that offer primary healthcare and pet care support.
● Access to the TEARS Veterinary Clinic, offering veterinary care for vulnerable pets for almost any condition, illness, or injury at a welfare rate.
TEARS remains the only facility in the Cape Peninsula’s far South available seven days per week, including an after-hours mobile clinic service from 4.30pm to 7pm with limited veterinary care. TEARS treat the hundreds of animals who need treatment each month for various conditions, illnesses, and injuries.
Our experience enables us to manage the population control of companion animals in these areas, based on available funding, and to reduce the spread of zoonoses as a means of supporting community health and complying to the WHO’s One Health approach to the animal-human interface.
We are partnered with community-based NGOs and community leaders to support vulnerable pets and pet owners living in the four core communities we are mandated to serve. Our Programmes aim to bring about systemic change through strategic interventions based on community involvement and support. Implementing effective animal welfare solutions in high-density and low-income communities has been proven to positively impact human welfare by delivering health, environmental, economic, educational, and social benefits.
