Sponsor a dog
The members of Ban ObOun’s large family live permanently in the shelter and require continuous care 24/7.
What’s more, with an average age of over 10 years, veterinary and medication costs represent a substantial monthly budget.
You can help ensure their well-being by choosing to sponsor one of the dogs in the pack, and thereby support the shelter.
The sponsorship fee is CHF 200 per year and covers :
- Food
- vet fees (vaccinations, deworming...)
- Grooming
- daily cuddles
Several times a year, you’ll receive news of your protégé from Michèle, the shelter’s co-founder, who will send you photos and videos.
