The Society for Animals in Distress

The single largest professional welfare veterinary care provider in South Africa, annually providing 100 000 treatments to domestic animals from indigent communities.

Established in 1958, we are built on a foundation of solution driven, focused animal care education.

Our operational methods are geared towards sustainability, which is illustrated by our commitment to skills development, youth upliftment, increasing the scope for graduates in para-veterinary disciplines, social, economic and enterprise development and business incubation.
