More than 50 dogs live at our shelter

Every dog here has a name, and a story.

Most of them are old, or blind, or missing a leg, and can't go back to the street. You can sponsor one for ₹1,500 a month, or give one a home.

The dogs

We call it passive adoption: the dog stays with us, and you cover their meals and medicines. Tap Sponsor to pay by UPI, then tell us on WhatsApp which dog it's for.
