Kinds of Dogs in Kuwait



Good Afternoon! We are asked all of the time “What kind of dogs are in Kuwait?” The answer is all kinds! People import dogs, and then dump them. More money than sense. They steal them from their mothers when newly born, or out of their packs in the street in an attempt to make a dime by selling them in the God Awful Friday Market. And when that doesn’t work, they dump them. They refuse to have their pets spayed or neutered and puppies are born and you guessed it - they dump them. So really not much different than here in the USA.

The big difference is that there are no laws for their protection, no shelters working on their behalf, no public outrage or shame for the people who do these things and a society that overwhelmingly views them as vermin and a government that would rather employ mass poisoning programs than make some laws or control their citizens. So our rescuers in Kuwait, by and large ex-pats with some wonderful Kuwaiti natives are left to pick up the pieces, clean up the messes, and show these dogs that not all people suck.


So we are asking for your support. Below are photos of our dogs that are currently being cared for by the wonderful team in Kuwait, by and large, with money out of their own pockets and with blood sweat and tears. I don’t know when they sleep!! The ones with ? have been sponsored. The others are looking for a sponsor. Sponsorship requires a monthly donation of 10 KWD - or roughly $30. But we can aggregate! You don’t need to do it on your own!

You can set up a recurring monthly donation for as little as $5 using the PayPal Link in the comments below! Donations are tax deductible! Once we reach the $30 commitment, we will note the sponsorship as complete!

So put your doggie’s name in the comments section when making your donation - and if your doggie doesn’t yet have a name - Make a suggestion!!

Thank you so much for following us and for caring about these pups when not many do! And if you see one that catches your eye and you would like to make them part of your family- Let us know!!
