At Shamy K Pet Rescue, we dedicate ourselves to taking in stray dogs, sheltering, feeding, and offering them the best care. We work closely with partner organizations to rehabilitate and find forever homes for these vulnerable animals. Your donations keep our doors open.
Welcome to Shamy K Pet Rescue. We are a dedicated rescue located in Uganda. Today, our shelter is home to many dogs and cats, many of which were abandoned or found injured in the streets. As a non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue and welfare of abandoned animals, we rely solely on public donations and support.
To create a compassionate Uganda where every animal is treated with kindness, dignity, and care.
We respond to calls from the community to ensure no animal is left without help. Each rescue is a testament to our belief that every creature deserves a second chance.
To reduce the overpopulation of stray animals and prevent suffering, we facilitate spaying and neutering. This reduces intake, decreases the number of animals competing for limited resources, and radically improves our strays' overall health.
We work to ensure comprehensive veterinary care for all rescued animals. Implementing thorough vaccination programs protects our strays against preventable diseases and contributes heavily to public health by reducing transmittable viruses.
Education is a crucial component of our work. We engage with the local community to promote responsible pet ownership, address cruelty, and inspire compassion and support for all animals throughout our region.
Take a look at the beautiful animals we have taken in and the progress they've made.
While our primary focus is on taking in stray dogs, sheltering, and feeding them, we do not directly adopt them out. Instead, we partner with extraordinary organizations in Uganda to ensure these beautiful dogs get fully rehabilitated and adopted into loving families. We campaign and fundraise to ensure their vital journeys—from the moment we rescue them off the streets to the day they are adopted or fostered by our partners—are completely supported.
We work hand in hand with the USPCA to ensure our rescued dogs receive essential vaccinations, spay/neuter services, and professional behavioral rehabilitation before re-homing.
Through our ongoing partnership with Animal Hope Uganda, many of our sheltered and fed strays are actively fostered and matched with thoroughly vetted, loving families.
Your continuous donations make this entire ecosystem possible. By funding our daily operations, you give us the strength to rescue the animals that our partners eventually place into loving homes.
Donate to our Operations →We are currently completely full, caring for 100 dogs and 20 cats! While ShamyK operates a recycling business that helps pay for our daily expenses, the overwhelming number of precious animals reaching out to us means we want—and deeply need—to do more.
We are urgently seeking $800 USD to build a dedicated shelter structure, and significantly expand our vet coverage, life-saving medicines, and critical nutrition.
Every donation, no matter how small, goes directly towards food, shelter, and medical bills for our rescued animals. Can't donate? Consider volunteering your time.
