2THE ONLY HUMANE WAY OF REDUCING THE ROAMING DOG POPULATION AND ERADICATING RABIES IN BOTH ANIMALS AND HUMANS
Catch-Neuter-Vaccinate-Release (CNVR) is the backbone of everything we do here in Sri Lanka. It’s the most humane, sustainable and impactful way of reducing the roaming dog population, and keeping the current ones happy and healthy.
OFFERING SOME OF THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF VETERINARY CARE
As vets, our focus is very much on the level of care we provide. As animal lovers, we also combine our skills with lots of love and compassion to create not only a life-saving, but a cuddle-filled experience for our patients. We have a 24 hour, fully-equipped hospital on the south coast of Sri Lanka, dedicated to providing healthcare to those with no one else to look after them. We are confronted by extremely advanced illnesses and injuries every day and this facility is vital in our aim of bringing a higher standard of veterinary care to the street dog population.
CHANGING MINDSETS IS KEY; FOR THAT WE NEED EDUCATION AT EVERY LEVEL
WECare provide Education Programmes in schools, community centres and during outreach programmes. Topics covered include community dog care and responsible animal ownership. We also carry out veterinary teaching and aim to help transform standards island-wide. Perceptions of street dogs in Sri Lanka are changing in a positive way; we hope we can help in this progression.
