With around 3 to 4 million stray and abandoned dogs in Sri Lanka we manage to foster as many of them as possible but due to financial capacity we cannot afford to foster more.

Being in an underdeveloped country, where animal welfare is still a mirage, to have successful adoption stories is extremely difficult. In rural areas, you will find stray dog adopters but families, being so poor. have no financial capacity to maintain them, and often lack adequate care.

We have to make sure to fully vaccinate and sterilise the dogs before giving them to families, as well as ensure full support post-adoption. In more developed areas most families would never consider to adopt a stray dog because they are not considered as possible pets and not as fashionable and appealing as pedigree dogs.

Puppies in our centre find loving homes within four to six months but for more adult pooches it is really hard to get adopted and so they will need to live with us for longer.

We receive no government funding and are totally dependent on the generosity of people like you. By sponsoring a dog for £25 per month, you won’t just be helping your sponsor dog but all their friends too!
