Logo for Sydney Fox and Dingo Rescue

ABOUT US Sydney Fox and Dingo Rescue (SFDR) is a registered Australian charity and animal advocacy organisation. Since 2012 we have worked tirelessly to rescue, care for, desex and rehome a variety of animal species with a particular focus on foxes and dingoes as well as other animals considered either socially or legally to be 'pest' animals. Unfortunately, the welfare of so called 'pest' species (also called 'feral', 'non-indigenous' or 'invasive' species) in Australia, often falls through the cracks. We, as Australians, consistently fail to stand up and take responsibility for animals brought to Australia through no fault of their own, trying their best to survive. It is time, as a nation, that we move towards more compassionate conservation methods. 5 Key Points About Our Program: 1. All of our rescue animals are desexed, microchipped, and vaccinated. 2. All our rescue foxes and dingoes are housed in secure outdoor enclosures with the appropriate government permits. 3. We are a registered charity and have rehomed over 400 animals since 2012. 4. We believe compassionate, science-based conservation means caring about both introduced and native species and we work hard to assist researchers, universities and wildlife organizations with fox samples and data. 5. We work with many native wildlife and animal welfare organisations including the Dingo for Biodiversity Project, the Centre for Compassionate Conservation, WIRES, the Animal Rescue Cooperative, Possumwood Sanctuary and Wildlife Hospital, RSPCA Vic, The Animal Welfare League, World League for the Protection of Animals, Monica's Doggie Rescue, and more as well as many council pounds and shelters.
