Dog Passion Sri Lanka - we love to help dogs

We love dogs with passion! "Dog Passion Sri Lanka" is a German association that supports stray dogs in Sri Lanka. The dogs are currently at three locations. A "welcome" or first transition station, our Habakkala house at Maha Induruwa for 60 to 70 dogs, a beach area at Bentota Beach, which the forest monastery Dharmadeepa Yogasramaya makes available to us free of charge, with currently around 50 dogs, as well as our new shelter area in Kalawila, where we currently foster around 200 dogs.

Dog Passion - We love to help dogs

We love dogs with Passion! Doesn't matter if small, big, with or without coat, sick or healthy – we give love and care to Sri Lankas streetdogs. Our „Dog Passion House“ is based in Bentota on the westcoast. Besides our daily work on our dog places we drive regularlytours to take care of homeless and sick dogs who live on the road.

We always try also to include the local people in our work so they understand that most of the dogs are neither dangerous nor contagious.

Furthermore we are working on a long term solution to reduce the population of the streetdogs. We organize sterilization days but also catch single dogs for medicial treatment and castration. Because every puppy who is born on the street only has a very small chance to survive in Sri Lanka.

If you wanna support us you can donate on our german bank account or via Paypal.

Christina has chosen Sri Lanka as her new home. When she arrived she saw a lot of stray dogs and cats in the streets, either being ill, malnourished or with wounds. So she decided to help these poor creatures and founded the organization Dog Passion Sri Lanka. She also built a great team of supporters and helpers who you can see on the photo below.

Our new shelter in Kalawila

In 2021 and 2022 we faced terrible attacks against us and our dogs. Nearly 30 of our beloved animals died from poison bait thrown at night into the shelter compound on the beach land. We are located with the dogs in the middle of the tourist zone and face many envious people. I went through hell and decided that I had to get my dogs to safety somehow in order to regain my zest for life.
So in the middle of 2022 I decided to buy a new shelter land from my private money. Since september 2022 we are now working diligently and continuously on our new dog country where 200 dogs have their home now. I am proud and happy about every support!

Currently there are already about 200 dogs living on the new land.
About 55 dogs are in the lower shelter area. The area has space for more animals, but some strong dogs dominate the pack and more reserved or shy dogs hardly dare to leave the feeding area if there is no worker to supervise them. We have therefore divided the large area with walls, so that we can separate the packs at certain times of the day and weak dogs can enjoy more freedom. In addition the division does make it easier to integrate new dogs into the pack.
There is still a lot to build and improve. I would be very happy if some of you could donate a few euros.

The Story of Lucy

When Lucy was brought to us she was more dead than alive. Very old, nearly blind, unable to stand up and fully covered with skin rash. Although I didn't set my hopes high that she would stand a chance to recover we tried our best to make her feel comfortable. Her appetite was more than well and we understood quite fast that Lucy won't die so soon.

We treated her against her sickness and helped her to recover with walking her patiently and she received physiotherapy. We got our reward for all this hard work. Five weeks after she had arrived Lucy stood up and walks again on her own ❤️ which is really like a little miracle to me. She shares her sleeping place with many puppies and is happily wagging her tail whenever there is a reason.

Animal rescue is hard work, especially because we have to see a lot of pain and suffering. Lucy is the best example that sometimes we need to stand the suffering to get over it. Who are we to decide which life is worth living and which is not? We should just do what we can to help every animal to stand up again. All other things should be decided by god, the universe, karma or whatever you may call it.
