Their Only Crime Was Being Born Unwanted

Across Sri Lanka, thousands of dogs are abandoned every year.

Some are left behind when families move.
Some are thrown out when food becomes expensive.
Some are chased away simply for existing.

Female dogs are often abandoned because they can reproduce.
Male dogs are left because they fight, roam, or are seen as a burden.

Both suffer. Both are forgotten.

We Open Our Doors to All of Them

When the streets become their home, we become their shelter.

We rescue female dogs, male dogs, pregnant mothers, injured strays, and helpless puppies.
We do not choose by gender.
We do not turn away those who need help.

Every dog that comes to us is given:

  • Safe shelter

  • Daily food and clean water

  • Medical care and sterilization

  • Protection from abuse, hunger, and the weather

  • Love, patience, and dignity

For many of them, this is the first time they feel safe.

Why Your Help Matters

Running a shelter is not easy.

Food runs out.
Medical bills grow.
More dogs arrive every day.

Without support, many dogs have nowhere to go.

A donation from you can mean:

  • A warm meal for a hungry dog

  • Medicine for a sick or injured stray

  • Shelter for a dog abandoned overnight

  • A second chance at life

To them, your kindness is survival.

Be the Difference in Their Story

You may never see their faces.
You may never know their names.

But somewhere in Sri Lanka, a dog — male or female — will sleep safely tonight because of you.

Please donate today.
Help us protect those who cannot protect themselves.

Because every dog deserves a home.
And every life is worth saving. 🐾❤️
