💔 He was used for fighting. Now, he is safe. 💔 This is Panda. Once forced into the brutal world of dog fighting, he has found sanctuary with us in Kabul. 🏡 We are so proud of the progress he is making! 🌟 Outside of his kennel, Panda transforms into a calm and focused boy who absolutely thrives in the fresh air. He is energetic, full of life and ready to leave his past behind. Panda is safe now, but he needs a sponsor to help fund his daily care and medical treatment. For just a small mon

At the end of last year, we took a brave step and, for the very first time in Nowzad’s history, joined the Exeter Christmas Market 2025. It was a big and slightly scary experiment. With a very small team (believe us, much smaller than the amount of work and love involved!) and a demanding market schedule — 30 full days, starting at 10am and often finishing at 9pm — it was certainly not for the faint-hearted. Some days the weather tested us, with rain pouring from morning to night. On others, th

Last week, Dr. Reshad – our Chief Vet at our Animal Hospital - received a call. A formal request for help had come in from the Animal Health Directorate (AHD) in Kabul. There was a young horse in Takhar Province, suffering from a severe joint issue and in terrible pain. It had been seen by several local vets, but without a clear diagnosis, it wasn’t responding to treatment. Because our Equine Clinic on wheels currently operates the only mobile X-ray facility available in Afghanistan, we were th
