We support dog shelters by providing funding to assist with their daily operations, as well as neutering programs and veterinary care for sick or injured stray and feral dogs. In countries with large stray dog populations, we promote and support TNVTR (Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Tag, and Return). This is to reduce the number of stray dogs that there are in a humane and ethical way.
