Since 2007 the DCC is conducting a consequent vaccination & spayneuter program...
With plus 80,000 neuterings and more than 580,000 vaccinations we managed to have a much smaller and healthier dog popoluation in our area. Sadly there are no matching programs in the adjoining areas, our resources are limited and so there's hardly a single day we won't have to find puppies from right those areas in front of our gate - Cause its well know, that the DCC always helps !
But by now we are - literally (!) - drowning in puppies and teens and the only solution are additional spayneuter assignments in the adjoining areas, so from August 2018 until the start of the pandemic, a mobile expert team under the supervision of the known Vet Dr. Chamith conducted DCC Field Clinics on a monthly base.
On each day the well-trained 8-person team (2 doctors, 3 vet assistants & 3 catchers) can additionally (!) vaccinate and castrate around 80 animals and every neutering today prevents the suffering of hundreds of dogs "tomorrow" ! The DCC Field Clinic is conducted every month on 5 consecutive days, gently capturing the animals early in the morning until about 11:00 in nets and immediately sedating them to avoid unnecessary panic, and all animals are cared for for several hours after waking up.
Due to the pandemic we had to put a hault onto this kind of Field Clinic but the team of Dr. Chamith continues he neuterings, vaccinations and treatments on seven days per week in front of the DCC clinic. Like this, we can spay and neuter between 35 and 40 dogs and cats per day.
But we need YOUR support to fund these capacities !
