1. The Impact of Urbanization
In the past, Indian street animals, including dogs and old cows, relied on human kindness for food and care. However, urbanization has led to widespread prejudice against animals on the streets. Many are subjected to horrific cruelties, such as having acid or boiling water thrown at them, being dragged behind vehicles, or deliberately crushed. Several animals at our shelter bear the scars of these atrocities—paralyzed, limbless, or blind.
2. Abandoned Pets
The rise of NRI culture and unethical breeding by unlicensed backyard breeders have led to a daily influx of abandoned pets in deplorable conditions.
3. Human-Dog Conflicts
The lack of anti-rabies vaccination drives and poorly executed sterilization programs has intensified human-dog conflicts.
4. Challenges in Livestock Care
Punjab’s livestock sector is critical to rural livelihoods. Yet, farmers have limited options for urgent medical care for their cattle. Untreated illnesses or injuries can directly impact their livelihoods and plunge them into debt.
Our Vision
AWCS is determined to change this reality.
Our hospital will be the first of its kind in the region, equipped to treat every stray animal—from the smallest pup to the largest cow or buffalo. This initiative is essential not only for the well-being of animals but also for the families who depend on them.
How You Can Help
Together, we can build a facility that provides lifesaving care to stray animals and supports farmers whose livelihoods depend on healthy livestock.
Every contribution will directly fund the construction of this hospital, ensuring that all animals, whether strays or livestock, have access to the care they desperately need.
Let’s work together to build a future where no animal is left behind.
