What We Do
We are working on establishing a Trap Neuter Return (TNR) program to control the homeless dog population.
Why not find homes for all the dogs?
Maintaining an adoption program requires monetary resources, space and infrastructure that are beyond our reach.
We are convinced that mass sterilization is the most sustainable solution for overpopulation, abandonement and neglect and although whenever possible will opt for adoption, our main focus is sterilization.
What is TNR?
It is a method to control, in a humane and efficient way, the population of companion animals living in the street. The process involves trapping and spaying or neutering the animals, tattooing the dogs to identify them and, if possible, vaccinate and deworm them to later release them into their territory. If the location is deemed unsafe, the animals can be relocated to other appropriate areas. The main objectives of TNR are to provide a better quality of life for community animals, slow down the growth of the population that is a direct result of reproduction, improve the communities in which these animals are found, reduce the rates of admission and euthanazia in shelters and create better and less hostile environments for stray dogs and cats.
