Would you join/help this type of organization/group?
Hello ladies,
On FB i follow the DARC group and often find myself torn with pain at how many unfortunate abandoned/hurt/mistreated animals there are. Today especially they posted pictures of a dog they had rescued who'd been tied with a rope to plank...smack in the middle of the desert. It took me back to my one childhood dream; to help abandoned/mistreated pets and of course i started bawling like a baby. I really am weak hearted when it comes to such things, and decided that i can no longer just "dream" or "hope" to dedicate my time to helping. I always make excuses like, i am not financially stable enough, and what not, but i figured with a little creativity and effort, i would like to at least try doing something. It would require help from the community, but i do hope we can gather enough strength to make at least a little difference.
I would like to organize a group of dedicated people who would offer their time to go around Dubai (and other Emirates should we find the volunteers there as well) and scope out abandoned/homeless animals(on weekends for example). Of course this would require significant participation from established animal housing groups/centers, and i am hoping through various connections of the women on here, and my efforts in calling these various centers, we can eventually set up a solid group of volunteers who can regularly, through collective efforts, help save some of these furry friends and deliver them to the centres/organizations who can home these animals temporarily and eventually find permanent homes to these unfortunate creatures.
I know this may sound far fetched right now, hence why i have posted it here. I'm hoping that anyone who wishes to help and has the time (perhaps those who do not have young kids or busy working schedules), would offer advice. suggestions etc. I think through community brainstorming sessions we can start something no at least a small scale, but make a big difference. Those opposing these kinds of ideas would also help with warnings, possible failures etc
Please do not judge me and tell me im too weak hearted and wasting my time, and "you can't save them all", i already know that, and have been told so often enough. But i still insist we try. Worst comes to worst it doesnt work at all and i'll try something else, but i believe in trying.
To the admins; could you please keep this thread in this section for now. Not many people visit the pets section, and i'd really like those without pets to see this as well. Thanks in advance for all your suggestions/advice/warnings, and even judgements :) :)
