The Power of Love

This community of passionate animal lovers fund incredible transformations and are creating a new generation of animal advocates.

Love: it’s our main currency here at Dogstar. And it manifests in many different ways – delivering soothing skin treatments, engaging with local communities about animal welfare and stopping suffering before it starts.

And it’s all thanks to you – a compassionate, fearless animal lover, and part of a 34,000 strong community of Dogstars. You don’t care that these animals are halfway across the world, you care that they need support.

Little treatments get big results

No animal has to die from a treatable disease. Ticks, fleas, mites, worms – too many dogs in Sri Lanka are suffering from life-threatening conditions caused by parasites. They can inflict agony on a dog. Loss of fur, scratching until they bleed and in some cases, scratching themselves to death when the wounds become infected. But it’s all treatable.

Your love means that we can break this cycle of suffering. Dogstar’s award-winning, expertly trained veterinary team are out daily scouting for dogs suffering from disease, applying simple treatments that save lives.

Take Berry’s story for example – proof that total transformation is possible when you’re in the arms of the Team Dogstar family.

Berry’s story

When we first met Berry, she was suffering from severe scabies and a fungal infection. She was in unimaginable pain, with skin as hard as stone.

Upon her arrival at a specialist hospital in Colombo, she received 24-hour veterinary care. Simple treatments saved Berry’s life. And the belief of our Team Dogstar family, and her staff foster parent Tamsin, meant that within just five weeks, lots of her fur had returned.

Playful, happy, healthy. Berry is a shining example of how small, simple treatments can get big, life-saving results.
