Raising money for Nowzad Dogs

Charity Registration No. 1119185

An Afghan dog's life is not one of comfort at the best of times; most of the day is spent hunting for scraps of food or hiding from the hot desert sun during the summer and the freezing cold of an Afghan winter night. There is definitely no pampered pet status in Afghanistan. We have started small but with your help we can only get bigger! All the money that is donated goes directly towards helping the animals in need while raising awareness of the problems that homeless animals, (in war zones), can and do face. We realise we cannot transport all of the stray dogs of Afghanistan to loving homes but we will do our best to promote animal welfare and to assist vital animal aid work that is carried out by the Afghan rescue centre. We are working hard to provide a sustainable plan for training and educational programs to train the Afghan vets of tomorrow as they just don't have the adequate educational facilities in place and to promote the benefits of animal clinics. It will be a long slow road but I hope that you will stay with us for the journey. We keep all administration costs to a minimum - the Nowzad Dogs team are all unpaid volunteers! Our mission statement: 'To relieve the suffering of animals, predominantly stray and abandoned dogs, in need of care, attention and to provide and maintain rescue facilities for the care and treatment of such animals, especially the dogs of Afghanistan'.

On the 21st of March I'm running the Reading Half Marathon for Nowzad dogs. As you will be able to see from the charity's website, the animals the soldiers rescue provide some degree of comfort to servicemen and women facing the daily horrors of this conflict. It is not surprising that that the men and women on the front line then seek to provide the dogs with as much comfort as they can give. This is where Nowzad Dogs steps in as they work to rehome the likes of Arnhem, Bear and the "Char Badmashis" with caring homes.

As a dyed-in-the-wool dog lover, the work that the people of Nowzad Dogs carry out really touched me and inspired me to try and help. So I'm running the Reading Half Marathon.......

With one leg (sorry, had to get that in there somewhere!) so please sponsor me and help to improve the quality of life of these animals.

Thanks,

Ant xxx
