Luke was abandoned with no tags. Rory, my other dog, and I found him on a walk — starving and injured. Animal care and control was going to put him down, instead we brought him home, and gave him a second chance. We can’t imagine our lives without him.

Millions of dogs like him aren’t so lucky. Overpopulation leads to illness and suffering. Sterilization reduces the number of dogs born into unsafe conditions, helping prevent suffering before it starts. It also makes street dogs healthier, calmer, and more adoptable — giving them a real second chance at life.
