How you can help

Some animals are too problematic to be homed. They may be injured, too old, too wild, or handicapped. These animals are cared for in one of our refuges and allowed to live out their natural life. You may be an animal lover who is unable, for various reasons, to keep a dog. This is your opportunaty to 'adopt' your own pet and help give it a better life. You can help by sponsoring one of these dogs, making a monthly, quarterly, bi annual or annual donation for its upkeep and support.(monthly rate LM6 or €15). Payment methods Your name will be recorded on the web site with your pet's picture and every year your pet will send you a card with a progress report. If you are in Malta you can visit your pet. The following are our sponsored dogs and the ones available for sponsoring.
