Save-A-Dog Scheme (SADS) is a volunteer-based, non-profit, no-kill animal welfare organisation that rescues and rehomes dogs and cats who would otherwise face euthanasia.

All animals receive full veterinary care, including desexing, vaccination, microchipping, parasite treatment, health assessment, and behavioural evaluation.

SADS operates a shelter in Glen Iris and a larger property in Yarrambat designed to house and rehabilitate many animals, especially dogs.
