FORGING NEW LIVES FOR INDIA’S FORGOTTEN ANIMALS

India’s stray animal population numbers nearly 90 million. However, India’s shelter system already faces population stress with less than 9 million animals. SAFI’s work finding forever homes for these neglected animals not only gives each pet the love they deserve but frees up critically important housing and veterinary capacity for those remaining in shelters.

WHY ADOPT

Desi dogs are born naturally, without breeder intervention. Their immunity is much better than a pure bred due to no genetic issues and their coats are fit for Indian climates. They are intelligent, loyal, loving and smart!

Apart from nourishing the dog’s life, you will be witnessing a kinder side of you that you have never seen before.
