More information
TOLFA is a small-but-passionate charity founded in 2005 between Pushkar and Ajmer, in Northern India. At our hospital you'll find donkeys, cows, horses, cats, buffalo, camels, monkeys, goats, sheep, birds and - of course - dogs. We have veterinary facilities for treatment, 100 kennels, a quarantine block, a puppy house, a dog exercise yard, a cattle shade and staff quarters for 5 families. We send a mobile sterilisation/rabies vaccination unit to outlying villages and other cities in Rajasthan, and our now-famous ‘animal ambulance’ responds to calls from the public about animals in need 24 hours a day. Since TOLFA began 5 years ago, 11,500 dogs in the surrounding area have been sterilised and vaccinated against rabies (India has the highest human death rate from rabies anywhere in the world). And every year, 3,000 diseased and injured animals are rescued from the streets.
