WHAT WE DO
Rescue & Treatment
When abuse or injury is reported, our trained volunteers and veterinarians act fast.
Rescue → Treatment → Release or Adoption
Animals are treated at our shelters, partner hospitals, or PAW Life Care clinics, then safely returned to their communities or placed for adoption.
PAW Life Care
We operate three low‑cost veterinary clinics in Dhaka (Lalmatia, Uttara, Mirpur), providing:
> Emergency and routine care for street animals
> Affordable treatment for companion animals
> Sustainable income to fund rescue work
Mobile Veterinary Services
Through our PAW Mobile Clinic and Sobar Vet program, we deliver on‑site treatment to street animals and animals in underserved communities across Dhaka.
Captive Elephant Welfare & Ethical Tourism
We advocate for the unchaining and rehabilitation of captive elephants and support ethical, welfare‑first sanctuary models. Our work promotes alternatives that protect elephants while ensuring dignified livelihoods for mahouts and local communities.
Education & Awareness
Lasting change requires awareness.
We run:
– Humane education programs for children
– Public campaigns and community training
– Advocacy events for wildlife and farm animal welfare
Legal Action & Policy Advocacy
PAW Foundation has been at the forefront of animal rights litigation in Bangladesh, including:
– Filing landmark cruelty cases
– Advocacy that contributed to the Animal Welfare Act 2019
– Legal notices against systemic cruelty and misinformation
