A small, determined group of people on a mission to solve the overpopulation of dogs in Mussafah, using the TNR method. We will be focusing on the male dogs as they recover more quickly from the procedure. It’s the best way to control the problem before it gets completely out of hand. It goes like this:
-Male dogs are trapped humanely.
-They are then neutered at the Pet Oasis veterinary clinic.
-
They are placed into a temporary foster home until they’ve recovered.
- After that, they are returned to the safest possible area. Why Mussafah? Mussafah is an industrial area hemmed in by main roads, which makes it hard for homeless dogs to migrate on their own. It has become a massive breeding ground and the number of dogs is in the hundreds! What kind of dogs are in Mussafah? Normally, the dogs in Mussafah are very afraid of people. They are very street wise and know not to go to dangerous areas. If you see a stray dog in Mussafah, please slow down while driving as they may be frightened and run into oncoming traffic. If you see a dog hit by a car, please notify us immediately so we can help if you’re not able to bring the dog to the vet yourself. Dogs in Mussafah typically migrate to different areas in their pack so it is common to see them in large groups. It is advised that you do not approach the dogs but instead, take a picture, pin the location and send us a message of where you spotted a dog. We can then inform you on whether we recognize them and if they are cared for and supervised by our group. Dogs in Mussafah are mixed breed and typically grow to be medium sized. How can I help? We need sponsors, volunteers and at times, adoptive families. For more information, drop us a message!
