Change the life of a Dharamsala stray dog unable to fend for itself on the street by providing; food, shelter, medical care, and lots of love and fun! Dharamsala Animal Rescues provides life time and long term care for hundreds of dogs per year needing recovery and shelter.
Dharamsala Animal Rescue provides shelter for several disabled and elderly dogs that will not be adopted locally due to much of India's attitude towards non breed dogs. Each dog, whether missing a leg or simply finding a safe spot where it is not beaten every day by a local, is cared for deeply at DAR. Daily hikes, special diets for chronic conditions, grooming and lots of hugs and pets are provided by the DAR staff and volunteers making DAR their home.
By providing sponsorship for each permanent resident that lives at DAR, we can guarantee their continued quality of life. Any excess funds will go to help our long term recovery patients who are suffering from broken bones, mange, rickets, malnutrition or any other health issue needed 24/7 care at our clinic.
We are hoping as we raise awareness of our work, that we will be able to spread to the surrounding towns and the entire state of Himachal Pradesh. As you move outside of Dharamsala, the conditions severely worsen where there is no one doing this work. The animals are hungry and sick and many. In the past few months there are been some reports of human deaths by rabies in these communities. If we expand, we know that we can humanely control the population of the street dogs and have good results.
