Why should you donate to a dog shelter?
Dog shelters house too many dogs, and they all need care in the form of food, medical facilities, and a safe and protective shelter. For this, they need help from the community or the government. Across the world, millions of dogs get euthanized simply because there is no room anymore, and they have not been adopted. If the shelters had more resources, this could be avoided.
- Donate: Every bit helps. Donate what you can towards doggy care.
- Give your time: Volunteering is always welcome in dog shelters. You can walk the dogs, help in feeding them, be a friend to the dogs, and get involved in the activities of the shelter as they try to garner funds for its upkeep. You can volunteer in an administrative capacity by answering the phones, managing the website, and promoting the shelter through social media.
- Donate supplies: You can find out what your local dog shelter needs and donate toys, bedding, crates, heating pads, food, etc. Make sure the toys are safe for dogs of all sizes, and that all that you donate has been checked for quality.
- Adopt a dog: Adopting a dog from the shelter or getting one of the rescue dogs is a great way to contribute to the welfare of dogs, and it would help the shelter by having one less dog to provide for.
“The power of giving, is greater than the joy of receiving.”
Donation for Dogs in India: How do they help?
We help rehabilitate strays who are incapable of fending for themselves due to abuse or their health conditions and play an integral part in a stray dog’s life.
VOSD is located near Bangalore, India, and hundreds of rescued dogs reside here lifelong without ever worrying about food, shelter, and care. Our entire workforce is passionate about helping these dogs live a life of dignity, and your donations for dogs help us continue on our mission.
Meals at VOSD
Here’s a little insight into what meals at VOSD are usually like.
MEALS AT VOSD
What Do Our Dogs Eat?
Our dogs are fed human-grade food – if it’s not safe for humans, it’s definitely not safe for our dogs. We prepare 2 tons in wet weight of fresh food balanced for energy & protein and fortified with fat, minerals & vitamins. Special meals are separately prepared and hand-fed to dogs that are too old to eat or have no teeth, etc.
They Can't Wait. Will You Help?
Every moment counts for a dog waiting on the streets. Your donation reaches the ones who need it the most. Together, we’re transforming lives with second chances and unconditional love.
Charity for Dogs in India: How VOSD uses your online donations
- VOSD is the world’s largest ecosystem of no-kill rescue, rehabilitation, and lifelong care for dogs, and the services that support it.
- VOSD is a home for life for dogs who have no hope of surviving on the streets, and we have the infrastructure to take care of ~1400 dogs, all of which receive the best nutritional care, veterinary services, and lots of love and cuddles for the rest of their natural life.
- VOSD Sanctuary was founded on the principle that no dog will ever be euthanized because of a lack of space, money, or resources.
- VOSD is home to not just India’s most ‘unadoptable’ dogs, but also of ‘Patriot Dogs’, India’s service dogs who have been retired from the Karnataka Police, Reserve Police, Railway Police, Kerala Police, and the Indian Army.
- We provide the world’s first remote medical assistance service for dogs, wherein our vets read diagnostic reports remotely and recommend treatments for injured/ ill dogs.
- VOSD has created a series of firsts, including the world’s first mobile app for dog rescue and a custom CRM to boost rescue and treatment operations. We have also created India’s first blood bank for stray and pet dogs.
Your Questions Answered
How is VOSD different from other animal shelters in the country?
First and foremost, VOSD isn’t an animal shelter, but a sanctuary with the capacity to take care of ~1400 rescued dogs that can live at our premises for life. We cater to the most difficult cases of rehabilitation such as dogs that have been blinded with acid, sexually assaulted, run over & paralyzed. We give these dogs a second chance at life and a safe home.
How does VOSD cater to such a large number of dogs?
All dogs at VOSD Sanctuary are free to roam within their 50+ enclosures spread across the 3.5-acre area as they are never chained or left in isolation. The dogs also have access to a veterinary hospital, 24*7 water & power supply, agility parks & a jet-powered hydrotherapy pool.
How has been VOSD able to manage its expenses and overhead costs?
In the early days of inception, founder Rakesh Shukla privately funded the organization. Later, VOSD started creating a series of product and entertainment brands/properties to help support operations, funded and patronized by dog lovers worldwide:
- Art for Dogs (a dog inspired art exhibition)
- Barking Mad (a stand-up comedy special)
- Howling Mad (a music festival)
- Stars for Dogs (invites celebrities)
- Monster Bake (a dog food baking festival)
Since 2019, VOSD has started accepting donations online across India and the world, and since then over 20,000 donors/supporters have been sending in donations to help grow the VOSD ecosystem and care for the VOSD dogs.
What is the No-Kill policy of VOSD?
VOSD and its entire workforce believe in the ideology of serving our dogs with the same level of care and shelter as is given to a pet dog. It has never let go of any dog on account of a lack of resources, space, or finances.
As an organization, VOSD has a strong No-Kill policy. Only if a dog is in unbearable pain and has no chances of recovery is euthanizing considered an option. However, to prevent abuse of the dogs at any level, the process requires three signatures in total (two from professional vets and the third being of the VOSD founder).
