A few Nowzad 2020 rescues!
09 February 2021

Time to forget about the woes of the world for five minutes and let’s celebrate a few of our successful rescues that did manage to travel to their forever homes during 2020 and the early part of this year. With airlines suspending operations all over the world, just as they are doing again now, it seemed at times; as if we would never have the opportunity to fly them out.

A working donkey has no life in Afghanistan – just toil, pain and a never ending slog along roads crammed with cars or up torturous slopes to reach the mountain villages that surround Kabul....

Happy Monday, wherever you are in the world today! Rany, Mollie & Ninja - some of our special needs pups in Kabul - are enjoying their fun in the snow this morning and wishing you all a pawsome week!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of Ricky Gervais from his most recent comedy tour - Morta
