GPRS Sanctuary - Home For Senior Dogs
Giving a Home to those who need it most. The number of strays in the state continues to be a major issue.
(18)
Who we are:
The Gomantak Pashu Rakshak Sanstha (GPRS) was founded by members of our society passionate about animal welfare in South Goa. We have nearly two decades of hands-on experience working with NGOs in Goa and internationally. We believe that education plays a major role in changing attitudes about animal welfare issues, and more broadly, the environment. Why we do it:
Despite many successf
ul animal welfare programs in Goa, challenges of awareness, education and cruelty to animals remain. Due to the urgent need for action to improve the situation in Goa, most NGOs do not have resources to concentrate on education. GPRS aims to fill this gap with education initiatives for schools in South Goa and we also contribute to the need for action through our sponsored animal rescue initiative. The issues we face:
While the animal welfare situation has improved, our experience has shown that the underlying issues that were faced twenty years ago are still present today. In addition to dogs, there are cows and other abandoned animals on the streets of Goa. Pets are not registered, animal welfare regulations are not implemented or enforced, and often residents live with unvaccinated animals in a country where the threat of Rabies is an everyday reality. Animal cruelty continues to be an issue, with little legal recourse available. At GPRS, we firmly believe that grass-roots education is imperative to making significant changes in attitudes. The seeds of awareness of the environment, kindness to animals and each other need to be sown at a young age to make the required impact on future generations. Our initiatives combine Action and Education. Action -The GPRS Animal Rescue
The urgent needs of Goa's strays cannot be ignored.The GPRS Animal Rescue initiative was set up to provide aid for stray animals that are sponsored by compassionate members of society. Even small donations can make a big difference. Our aim is to encourage people to experience the positive effect that their involvement can have on animals in need. Curing a maggot wound, sterilization of a stray, treatment of an ailment, can all change the life of a homeless animal. Education - The LEARN Centre,
The LEARN Centre is focused on educating children about kindness to each other, animals and the environment. This initiative involves creating and delivering holistic education programmes in schools around South Goa. Teaching the next generation about kindness & compassion are the starting blocks in our movement for change.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Callously torn away from her Mama, this tiny baby was thrown outside our gates during the night. Her cries alerted our staff who found her this morning, trying desperately to get away from the speeding traffic outside.
There is no point trying to explain GPRS is a Sanctuary for Senior Dogs and do not take in puppies. Do you think the people who dumped this now motherless puppy actually care?
Of course they don't! All they have done is solved THEIR problem by making it OURS.
We will do our best for this little one.
With your help, we will try and find her a family who will love and cherish her, not cruelly sn**ch her from her mother & then discard her recklessly, like trash.
Pls share her and help us find someone she can Love, Protect and Trust that will do the same for her!

Rescue and rehabilitation, providing treatment, care and a safe place for animals to recover from trauma, injury and illness.
Sterilisation (TNR) and vaccination programmes, helping to reduce the number of stray and abandoned pups/ kittens and helping to keep communities Rabies free.
Pet Adoption Camps, rescuing, treating and rehoming pups & kittens, guaranteeing
vaccination and sterilisation free of charge.
