A registered trust initially set up during the COVID-19 pandemic for the free-roaming dogs of Velim Fishing Jetty in Goa, India.

Following the lockdown we have continued to feed, medicate, rescue, foster, vaccinate and sterilise as many dogs as possible.

💔 THIS IS WHAT IRRESPONSIBLE DOG OWNERSHIP LOOKS LIKE!!! 🤬

We were alerted to three tiny puppies who had been dumped on the main road leading to Velim Fishing Jetty.

We are in the height of the fishing season, and massive lorries and heavy trucks thunder up and down this road 24 hours a day. For three tiny, vulnerable puppies, being abandoned here was a death sentence.

By the time we arrived, one puppy was already dead. The other two were lying beside their lifeless sibling. 💔

We knew we couldn't leave them there. With no lactating mother dogs in the area, we are certain these puppies had been deliberately dumped. Someone had decided that these little lives were disposable and left them to fend for themselves in one of the most dangerous places imaginable.

To the person responsible: your actions cost one of these puppies its life. This was entirely preventable.

Abandoning puppies on a busy road isn't finding them a new home. It isn't giving them a chance. It is putting innocent lives at risk and walking away from the consequences.

Responsible dog ownership means sterilisation, preventing unwanted litters, and taking responsibility for the animals you bring into this world. If you cannot care for a litter, seek help. Contact a local animal welfare organisation. There are always better options than dumping helpless animals and hoping for the best.

The two surviving puppies are now safe with us, and we will do everything we can to give them the chance they deserve. 💛💚🧡 🐾

One life has already been lost. Please, let's stop this from happening again 🙏

❤️🐾 From the fish market to a forever home… 🏡❤️

Today, one very special little puppy’s life changed forever. 🥹🐶❤️

Alongside the kindness and compassion of the local community at Colva Fish Market, we’ve been caring for these precious little souls, hoping that one day each of them will find a family to call their own.

And today, that beautiful moment arrived for one very lucky pup! 💕 Our little one has been adopted by Jose and has gone off to a truly wonderful home, where we know there will be so much love, care and happiness waiting. 🏡🐾

It takes a village to care for our community animals, and this little puppy’s story is a beautiful reminder of what can happen when people come together with kindness in their hearts. ❤️

We couldn’t be happier for our little one. One less puppy sleeping without a family, one more heart filled with love, and a lifetime of adventures waiting to begin. 🐶✨

Happy tails, little one. Your forever starts today! 💛💚🧡 🐾

🌊 The monsoon is over, the ocean is calm, and the beach shacks are open… but the tourists are yet to arrive! ☀️🐾

Until Goa’s beaches come back to life, we’ll continue doing what we do best — feeding, caring for, and looking after our dogs in and around Colva Fish Market 💛

And when the tourists return and the beaches get busy again, we’ll still be here, monitoring our four-legged friends, checking on their health, and making sure they stay safe and well throughout the season. 🐕💚

Because our commitment to these dogs doesn’t depend on the season. They’re here all year round, and so are we. 🐾🧡

💔🐾 Abandoned, but not forgotten. ❤️

These three little puppies were abandoned at Colva Fish Market, but thankfully, the local community stepped in to care for them. 🐶❤️

With the support of PAALM, we’ll make sure these little ones receive the care they need, including deworming and vaccinations. We’ll also explore finding them loving, forever homes where they can grow up safe, happy and loved. 🏡🐾

It takes a community to make a difference, and these three little lives are worth fighting for. ❤️

A safe return, a happy reunion, and a little swim to celebrate! 🐾💦❤️ Released back to the people who care for him on the outskirts of Velim Fishing Jetty, vaccinated against rabies and protected with his 9-in-1. 🐶🧡💚💛

💔 A tiny life, just three days old, fighting to survive.💔

Last week, whilst we were out trapping dogs for sterilisation, we came across a heartbreaking situation. A tiny calf, just three days old, had been attacked by dogs and had sustained a wound that was already infested with maggots.

A local shopkeeper had tied the little calf up and was desperately trying to find help for him. We immediately stepped in to provide on-site treatment, cleaning the wound and administering medication to kill the maggots.

We promised the shopkeeper that we would return every day to continue treating him and help give him the best possible chance of recovery.

But when we returned the following day, we discovered that the local gaushala (cow shelter) had taken him in.

We don't know exactly what happened, whether he went with his mother or what arrangements were made for his care. We can only hope that he is now somewhere safe, receiving the veterinary treatment and attention he desperately needs.

At just three days old, this little calf should have been spending his time close to his mother, not fighting to survive a painful wound.

We sincerely hope he pulls through and gets the chance to grow into a healthy, happy cow. ❤️

Sometimes, when we set out to help one group of animals, we unexpectedly encounter another life in need. And when we can help, we do.

Every life matters. Every animal deserves compassion.💛💚🧡

🐾 **Stronger together, for the dogs who need us most.** ❤️

An early start at 6:30 a.m. today, as PAALM, Mission Rabies India and WVS Goa joined forces to tackle a challenge we’ve struggled with at Velim Fishing Jetty for the past six years.

The terrain on the outskirts of the jetty is incredibly difficult, with deep water bodies, open fields and challenging access making catching these dogs a real challenge.

But sometimes, teamwork makes all the difference. 💪🐕

**Nine dogs caught this morning!** Nine steps closer to a safer, healthier community and a better future for these dogs.

Different organisations, one shared mission: better lives for the animals. 🧡💙💛🧡💚

Yesterday at Velim Fishing Jetty, we had a little extra help setting up our trap cage! 🐕😂

Two of our already-sterilised cuties decided they were staying for the whole operation, patiently sitting beside the cage with their tails wagging. Clearly, their previous experience hadn't put them off one bit! ❤️🐾

Who needs a team of assistants when you have these two little supervisors on site? They were on duty for the entire setup, making sure everything was running smoothly. 😆🧡💚💛

One of the most gorgeous little faces at Velim Fishing Jetty! 🥹❤️🐾 We tried to catch her mama for sterilization before she fell pregnant, but we’ll keep trying — and when her pups are old enough, they’ll be next! 💛💚🧡
