Every day you come across dogs who are unhealthy, malnourished, wounded or a victim of an accident. These voiceless animals are forced to hide their pain as they cannot ask for help at all. We urge you to be sympathetic and aware enough to realize when an animal is in crisis and extend your help towards them. Lucknow is home to 95,000 stray dogs whose living conditions are getting worse day by day, here are a few small steps you can take to make the living conditions of dogs better an initiative taken by ngo for animals in lucknow.

Emergencies in dogs

Maggots is a serious disease that is responsible for many deaths among dogs. It can lead to severe anemia which eventually causes death. You can easily save a dogs life by following these few steps

  • Firstly make sure the dog is comfortable with you, and protect yourself from them biting you, establish a friendly relation. 
  • Identify the wounded part and get yourself an ivermectin injection from the nearest vet. 
  • Inject the injection in the wounded part and make sure you cover the wound after. 
  • Ivermectin will kill the maggots after half an hour then carefully take out the maggots with the help of tweezers. 
  • After you have done that all you need to do is dress the wound. 

If the severity of the wound is much bigger take the dog to street animal rescue in lucknow.

ABC METHOD TO SAVE LIVES

We are adamant supporters of this method. ABC stands for Animal Birth Control is the most convenient way to save a dog's life .Spaying or neutering is a small procedure that stops a dog from fertilizing,dogs cannot procreate after they have been spayed. A professional Vet is authorized to neuter a dog, it is the biggest solution to the problem of overpopulation and mistreatment of dogs.

Organizations like Nagar Nigam have been carrying out operations to neuter all the dogs in the city. They follow the T-N-R method Trap, Neuter and Release. We need to get more and more dogs neutered as soon as possible. That is another way we can save lives. 

If you neuter a dog it can save upto 5 lives of those dogs who could have been born on the side of the road with no one to take care of them , hunger or a disease would have killed them eventually. 

SPONSOR A DOG

Dogs are living in the most unfortunate situation. They are dying because of accidents, hunger and deadly disease. You can make a donation of any amount to provide for the food and medication or vaccinations of dogs in our care . A small donation of 500 rs can save a dog and provide them a meal. Take an initiative to feed dogs around you at least once a day. Even when you alert us Or bring in an injured dog you can sponsor the medication and treatment of that dog. Any amount will be appreciated.
