Why We Exist

Home / Why We Exist

Since the 1990s, Somaliland’s stray animals have faced mass killings by gun or poisoning, starvation, dehydration, and untreated injuries. SAR-SERVICES Organization addresses this crisis by : –

  • Operating the only dedicated animal rescue service in Somaliland.
  • Challenging the misconception that dogs are “unclean” by highlighting their value to society.
  • Providing emergency medical care, including treatment for accidents, skin diseases, and malnutrition.
  • Establishing safe shelters outside urban areas to protect animals from harm.
  • Contribute public health improvement by vaccinating dogs and humans from rabies and sterilizing dogs to curb overpopulation
  • Utilizing dogs by training them for security purposes, guarding of farms and livestock, home guarding and so on.
  • Community engagement and behavior change initiatives as well as  adding school education programs about kindness toward animals and welfare programs
