Who are we?
Prakriti Animal Welfare Society is a non-governmental organisation (NGO) based in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan.
PAWS was started by a local vet and is now run by Swaroop Singh with the help of volunteers. If you would like to volunteer and help us out - please contact us today.
What do we do?
-
We feed community dogs and cats in and around Jaisalmer. How many we can help depends on food donations and funding.
-
In the winter we provide the community dogs with blankets to keep them warm.
-
We have a small shelter that can home up to about 15 dogs. As space is limited we can only shelter dogs that need care and attention or that have life-long disabilities (e.g. broken limbs, paralysis, large open wounds) that will mean they will be in more danger on the streets.
-
We respond to calls of injured animals in Jaisalmer, treat them as necessary either on the streets, in the shelter or we take them to the local vet if the case is serious.
-
When we have funding we work with local vets to sterilise dogs to reduce pregnancy rates and suffering.
-
We assist with cows, bulls, camels that are suffering in and around Jaisalmer.
-
We help educate the local public about how to look after their pets and community animals appropriately.
Meet Jack
Jack had a head injury and a damaged paw from an accident, possibly a motoring incident. His head is now almost full healed and whilst he limps he's full of energy and such a handsome dog with a beautiful temperament.
