How To Help
The shelter is happy to see any visitors, whether from overseas or from Trinidad & Tobago. We have a guest book which you are welcome to sign and a donations book where we keep a record of all donations given, be it a bag of dog biscuits or a bottle of doggy shampoo.
The most useful gift is of course money but we are happy to receive almost anything, from old newspapers to brushes and bowls (metal, non-tip kind, please!) to medications such as Frontline.
Volunteers are welcome to come and assist with exercising the dogs. We have 2 large fenced off enclosures and if it hasn’t been raining too much the dogs love to be let out for a run.
We need more local support from both members and non members alike to provide better care for the animals especially at week ends when the staff work a half day. The puppies should still be fed in the afternoons but this doesn’t happen very often due to lack of volunteers.
The best help of all is, of course, to give our dogs and cats a home.
Please call in and take time to look around. The noise can be a bit deafening as you walk through as the dogs are so pleased to see you, but persevere and you may find the companion you have been waiting for! We have sent dogs to both Germany & the UK, our most recent being a pup called Carib.
At present we have quite a few dogs that have been with us too long, some for well over a year which really is not in the dog’s best interest and we may well have to put some to sleep as demand for space 
becomes urgent. Most of them are females and we try to have them spayed when funds allow.
CATS
The shelter also has an enormous number of cats. Not all are suitable for adoption as many are now left free to roam the compound after spaying or neutering and have become almost feral. However we usually have a number of kittens or young cats which with loving care could become loving pets.
