So far we have raised AU$4,363 towards the target of AU$8,000 needed for the medical costs for homeless dogs over the next 12 months. This means that we are 54% on the way to the target for the Medical Contingency Fund. We are grateful to all our supporters who have donated and shared the campaign. www.gofundme.com/medical-fund-for-vulnerable-street-dogs-in-nepal

Medical Contingency Fund Fund-raiser
With the increasing numbers of inpatient dogs from the community, cases of Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumour, and sterilizations, we are finding it more and more difficult to cover the costs of medical treatment for vulnerable dogs. The projected costs to CDWK for medical treatment over the next 12 months could be as high as US$6,000 (over AU$8,000). Therefore, we have …
Gofundme Campaign – Final Report on Completion of New Facilities
After 9 months of fund-raising and hard work, the new facilities for CDWK have been completed according to budget – with all funds expended and accounted for.

Makhal
In October 2018, a friend of CDWK, Kushal, reported a dog with a large head wound in Makhalbari. Kate tried to catch the terrified ferocious dog 3 times with an experienced dog catcher but to no avail. Finally, on the 4th attempt, the dog was netted and tranquilized. The huge maggot-infested wound on Makhal’s head and neck was a bloody …
Baloo
Baloo has been through a lot. He was supposedly under treatment at the government hospital for cancerous nasal polyps.

Muki
Muki, a friendly street dog, was brought to us by the Ghimire family. He was suffering from a severe case of throat, mouth and neck warts.

While Dr …
Jigme
Jigme, Yeshe and Chokyi, three small terrier pups, were dumped at CDWK’s doorstep one evening in December 2016 in terrible condition. Chokyi and Jigme recovered well, but Yeshe remained with bowed legs as a result of malnutrition. In mid-May 2017, Jigme was adopted by a Nepali family, who have already previously adopted one rescued dog from the CDWK centre. They …
Communities Caring for Homeless Dogs
Temba Raju alerted us to Temba – a large, black, Tibetan mastiff-type dog – in his local area of Nayabusti. Although the local teashop lady had been feeding Temba and trying to care for him, he was becoming weaker with each passing day due to a large aggressive, infected tumour on the joint of his right hind leg. On May …
