    Description

    We are a well-known animal rescue organization located on the beautiful island of Langkawi, Malaysia. Dedicated to rescuing , spay and rehabilitating stray and abandoned animals, particularly dogs and cats, the organization provides shelter, medical care, and a loving environment for animals in need. With a focus on promoting responsible pet ownership and animal welfare, this also works to raise awareness about animal rights and the importance of spaying and neutering. Visitors can support the cause by adopting or volunteering, helping to improve the lives of many animals in the region.
    Our is a small organization, we are 1 shelter in our town where we host around 55 dogs and I have about 20 dogs and puppies in my house. A beautiful home in the rice field. We focused on rescue and a program of spay and release, since Langkawi have a lot of issues with stray and unfortunately not so much support from government organizations.
    I name is Roziah . My time and effort is entirely spent on the welfare and feeding of stray dogs on the island. My goal is to reduce the stray dog population through neutering and spaying of the dogs.
    Volunteers will work alongside me on a day to day basis feeding dogs, cleaning the shelter and feeding dogs several places around the island. The will stay on my property sharing a room with my housekeeper.
