STRAY AID LTD

Stray Aid is an animal welfare-based organization whose primary aim is to stop re-homeable stray dogs and unwanted cats from being put down. By increasing public awareness to the plight of unwanted animals, providing information on what to do if you lose or find a dog or cat, who to contact and how to get help. We are creating a network to facilitate the exchange of dogs around the country.
