Straybusting is a verb: to go into communities, collect or trap roaming dogs or cats
whose owners are unable to take them or never take them in, to the vet and
then return them spayed and neutered.
The process of straybusting not a simple one, it involves dirt,
sweat and lots of sardines. A humane trap is set and the animal is lured to the
trap by the tantalizing smell of sardines. Once inside, the trap closes
and the straybusters move the dog and the trap to the waiting vehicle and then
transported to the “waiting area” of the veterinarians office where they will
be spayed or neutered. The next day the dogs are released back to the
neighborhoods with instructions to the owners or caregiver so that if they have
further concerns they can call for help.
We at Baark! are thrilled to tell you that last year we were
able to complete 600 free spay and
neuters. This is all done thanks
primarily to generous donations we receive on your behalf. Next time you see a
Baark! donation box or support a Baark! event please know Baark! has made a
difference not only for dogs but for the dog’s whole neighborhood. Please
continue to support Baark! in whatever way you can.
Please spay and neuter your animals.
By ensuring your animal cannot produce more litters you are
saving lives and decreasing the suffering of unwanted animals. Please consider donating or helping with
Baark!’s efforts to improve animal welfare in the Bahamas. For more information
