Good Things Come to Good South Africans: The Rescue Team Turning Pain Into Possibility

Loading player...
This week on Good Things with Brent Lindeque, we shine a light on the incredible work of The Pitbull Sanctuary South Africa, a haven for dogs who have survived unthinkable abuse, neglect, or abandonment.

Run by animal rescuer and photographer Chantelle Van Zyl, the sanctuary is home to 37 Pit Bulls (and one tiny Yorkie) who are learning to trust, heal and start over.

In this candid conversation, Chantelle opens up about the heartbreaking realities these dogs arrive with… and the extraordinary transformations that follow. It’s raw, emotional and deeply inspiring... a powerful reminder of what compassion can achieve.
