KARE is a two-person project that provides medical care to the street dogs in Kirtipur, Nepal. KARE provides rabies vaccinations, deworming for puppies, treatment for mange, spay/neutering, rescue/adoption, and other urgent medical care.

New DIGITAL Photos!



The digital camera finally made it to Nepal courtesy of a student from Cornell. I don't even know his/her name, but if you're reading this - THANK YOU!

Here are some of the pictures from our first batch of digital photos! Bista-ji, our vet, e-mailed them to me this morning!











Bista-ji takes a picture of each dog he treats, as a way to keep count of the number of animals treated and also for reference to track their progress. Unfortunately, there were no detailed descriptions accompanying the photos, but I will update them soon. I'm not sure what that group photo is above, but that's the vet standing up front in the blue shirt. It looks like they're holding a community education session. I'll find out more and make the updates soon!

Thanks. Yes, they're cute, but they're also sick and injured! As you can see, although they are "street" dogs, they're very gentle. It is very sad to see their helpless suffering in contrast to my spoiled pet dogs here in the US.
