An appeal to dog lovers !

Hello,

We are:

ResQ Charitable Trust (RCT) is an animal welfare organization that rescues, immunizes and facilitates adoption of stray dogs. Our work includes on-site first aid programs, running a full fledged rescue center for hurt and sick animals (in the premises of E-square Multiplex) and conducting education awareness programs in schools and colleges. We also provide facilities for re-homing dogs and puppies through a dedicated adoption program run through a network of volunteers and well-wishers.

Since inception in June 2007, RCT has impacted the lives of over 2500 dogs with its rescue program and found homes for over 800 homeless dogs and cats.

Our mission is to bridge the human animal divide and help solve the city’s stray problem in a humane, controlled and legal manner. We believe the stray dog problem can be solved faster and permanently with active citizen involvement.
