Snoopy and Woodstock are two little bodegueros looking for a home.
Snoopy only has 3 legs but doesn’t know it and Woodstock was lucky enough to avoid injuries whilst living on the streets ❤️
They’ve been here since puppies from 4mths old and are now a year old 🫤
Can you share? They can be homed together or separated. They just need a home!
Plz share 🙏🏻❤️

We’ve become accustomed to unlikely friendships – ostriches and elephants, warthogs and buffaloes, hippos and elephants, to name just a few. So, while a black rhino and a zebra might seem an unlikely pairing, Tytan and Notty are two friends who have become almost inseparable.
They do almost everything side by side, despite being built very differently and having very different personalities. Notty is the energetic one – forever on the move, quick to canter off and greet passing zebra before hurrying back. Tytan is the opposite: slow and steady, happiest grazing or dozing in the sun, breaking into a jog only when Notty dashes away without him.

Meet little Anchovy! 🐾❤️
This gorgeous podenco was found paralysed on the side of the road after being hit by a car.
After lots of tests, we discovered that he just needed time… and a whole lot of determination! 🥹
And look at him now!
He didn’t just learn to walk again — he’s climbing mountains and even helping with the housework! 😂🏔️
Just take a look at this amazing boy! 👀❤️
If Anchovy makes you smile, please give him a share and help us find him the loving forever home he deserves. 🏡🐶
Plz share 🙏🏻❤️

WE COULDN’T SAVE JOURNEY — BUT HIS LEGACY CAN SAVE GENERATIONS. ❤️
Journey’s family depended on working animals for their livelihood. When one could no longer work, another would take his place — and the cycle continued generation after generation.
Today, we put a full stop to that cycle.
One incredibly kind supporter funded a motorised rickshaw for Journey’s family. In return, they have signed a formal agreement that their family will never again use an animal to earn their livelihood.
So this isn’t about saving one horse or one donkey.
One rickshaw can remove generations of animals from a lifetime of labour.
We couldn’t save Journey. 💔
But his suffering has created something bigger — a permanent way out for every animal who might have come after him.
And now we’re working towards the same future for Polar. ❤️ We’re getting closer to funding his owner’s rickshaw and giving Polar his well-earned retirement.
One family. One rickshaw. One permanent full stop to generations of suffering. 🐴❤️

One share could help save another working animal.
Meet Journey
Journey is around seven years old. He collapsed while pulling a heavily overloaded brick cart after falling into a deep pit.
The impact almost killed him.
Our vets diagnosed a punctured left lung, ruptured chest muscles, traumatic hemopneumothorax, severe subcutaneous emphysema (air trapped beneath the skin), and extreme breathing difficulty.
As our vets treated him, trapped air escaped through the wound in his chest.
Every breath was a fight.
Journey survived... but surviving isn't enough.
His owner already wants him back.
After everything his body has endured, Journey deserves rest, safety, and a life free from suffering—not another overloaded cart.
Sadly, if Journey returns to work, another accident like this is only a matter of time. And if he isn't sent back, another horse or donkey may simply be bought to replace him.
That is the heartbreaking cycle we are trying to end.
This is why I started TAWF's Second Chance for Working Donkeys.
My dream is to replace animal-drawn carts with motor carts, retire these exhausted animals to our sanctuary, and prevent the next Journey before another innocent life is broken.
But this dream cannot become reality without your help.
We are still waiting for support to secure a motor cart for Polar, whose owner is also asking for him back. Now Journey needs the same second chance.
Please don't let this dream fade away before it has the opportunity to save the lives it was created for.
Please share Journey's story.
Together, we can give him—and countless other working animals—the future they deserve.
