Dogs are being BARBECUED in the Philippines!
Picture for a moment a chicken on a rotisserie. Or a pig skewered on a spit. Spinning slowly. Its face frozen in gruesome agony. Skin blackened, splitting, peeling, popping over punishing open flames. We deplore this! But now, IMAGINE that chicken or pig was YOUR DOG, stolen and slaughtered the very same way! Imagine no more! These wretched […]
A fraction of the money donated to Notre Dame could do so much for abused animals!
We share the world’s sadness at the destruction of the historic Notre Dame cathedral in Paris and are glad that so much money has been raised to restore it – more than $1 billion at the last count and rising by the hour. But… we can’t help but lament that while all that money will […]
Summer whimpered piteously as she lay dying!
We have told you before about the terrible lives of street dogs in South Africa’s urban slums. Thousands of dogs live in townships where people have no idea how to care for animals or any money to do so. Street dogs are born, suffer and die without ever knowing happiness. To make it worse, many uneducated South […]
Authorities do NOTHING while dogs are left to die!
Last year, we discovered truly shocking conditions at the municipal dog shelter in the town of Ulcinj in Montenegro. The town provided dog food only intermittently, workers said they had not been paid for months and when we asked about medical care, the manager shrugged and said a vet came “sometimes.” If dogs were sick, […]
Freddie the donkey was being hacked to death!
In financially-ruined Zimbabwe, the donkeys of this once flourishing country are suffering almost unbelievable cruelty. On a recent visit to MARES, a donkey sanctuary in Bulawayo, our team found four abused creatures collapsed in their harnesses. The ‘owner’ was slashing one poor donkey with a machete (a long-bladed knife/axe). The donkey’s head was gushing with blood from deep wounds. […]
Would YOU enter a nuclear fallout zone to help save forgotten animals? We did.
First came the 9.0 magnitude earthquake. Then a towering tsunami that raged inland for miles, sweeping to their death more than 15,000 people and countless animals. But then it got worse, much worse. In what would become a more catastrophic nuclear meltdown than Chernobyl, three nuclear reactors began to leak radiation at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant […]
42 puppies tossed away like trash!
Every day the APA El Refugio dog shelter in Uruguay deals with careless, casual and heartless cruelty. As our video shows, almost every night people throw their unwanted pets over the shelter fence and run away. In 2018, 143 were dumped, 43 did not survive. We support El Refugio, a lonely beacon of hope for street […]
Will you be Zero’s hero?
Zero needs a hero to cover long-term care that, for this lionhearted dog who has been cruelly neglected, is life or death. He was abandoned at the Thai Animal Sanctuary, where thanks to generous donations like yours, they save, shelter, and find forever homes for the most gravely forsaken animals. The need is massive at this remote […]
Help stop HUNDREDS of dogs being killed in the Philippines!
There is a tragic situation unfolding in the city of Cagayan de Oro on the island of Mindanao in the southern Philippines. Hundreds of stray street dogs have no one in the world to care for them. Food and fresh water are scarce. Left to fend for themselves, they struggle daily to survive…and, that isn’t […]
Dogs forced to tear each other to bits while crowds cheer!
In the ancient town of Palermo in Sicily, dogfighting with pit bulls is taking place on a massive scale.Dogs tear each other to pieces while cheering crowds look on! Gamblers bet huge sums on which dog will successfully rip other dogs apart in bloody brawls. Local people’s beloved pets are stolen, and strays abducted to act as […]
