Animal Welfare on Lombok

THE DOGS, OUR MISSION, OUR WORK

More Than a Stray

They are no ordinary strays: Lombok’s Village Dogs are a distinct breed that has evolved over thousands of years. Find out what makes them so special.

Our Mission

Overpopulation, a lack of veterinary care, suffering on the streets – why sustainable animal welfare is so urgently needed on Lombok.

Our Work

From neutering and emergency veterinary care to sanctuary: how we’re making a real difference to the dogs’ lives – and how you can help.

Animal welfare work that makes a real difference

With the support of our community, we work to improve the lives of street dogs across Lombok through rescue, medical care, and spay and neuter programmes.

Animal Welfare Work on the Ground in Lombok

Spay & neuter program

CNVR: Catch - Neuter - Vaccine - Release
By carrying out an ongoing spay & neuter program, we are doing our part to reduce animal suffering on Lombok sustainably.

Sanctuary Lombok

The Sanctuary will finally become a safe place for the dogs. It combines a shelter area, a clinic, a rehabilitation area and an area for disabled dogs and those in wheelchairs.

Mobile Vet Team

Every day, reports are received of injured dogs. The mobile veterinary team treats and monitors dogs on the streets that do not require intensive medical care.

Handicap & Wheelchair dogs

Vulnerable dogs, in particular, need a safe place and professional care. Experienced animal carers look after our disabled dogs round the clock.

Street Feeding

Mit Hilfe von Volunteers wird die Verpflegung von Straßenhunden gesichert, die sie benötigen. Zusätzlich werden diese medizinisch versorgt und die Entwicklung der Hundepopulation beobacht.

Education

Working with the children and people in the remote villages is very close to our hearts; our team regularly uses the neutering program as an opportunity to educate the local communities about animal welfare.
