In the northern reaches of Kabul, Afghanistan, where Nowzad has been running its Working Animal Programme since 2022, our vet team was called out to a poor foal in a shocking state. The young horse had tragically lost her ears to a vicious dog attack when she couldn’t get up back up after her tethering rope had wrapped around her legs and she’d fallen over.

This past month has been one of reflection and remembrance as the sanctuary said goodbye to the beloved Soni. While her journey has come to an end, her story continues to inspire a steadfast commitment to providing care, compassion and dignity to every animal at the sanctuary.

This past month shows the importance of their mission, from rescuing abused donkeys to addressing preventable injuries, while working towards a future where every donkey is treated with respect and compassion.

Proper hoof care is so important for the health and well-being of horses, ensuring they can move comfortably and avoid painful injuries or infections. Thanks to the generosity of AAA supporters, essential items like shoes, nails and tools have been supplied to empower farriers and improve the lives of working horses on Gili Trawangan Island in Indonesia.

Thanks to the incredible support of our generous donors, APOWA’s team brought essential care to 94 working animals this month through their mobile veterinary clinic. Horses and oxen who support their communities received the help they needed - vaccinations to protect them, treatments to heal their wounds and check-ups to ensure their well-being.

Your generosity empowers our work and strengthens our partnerships, including with the wonderful and compassionate team at VSPCA. We’re grateful to share their latest update with you - showcasing the care and life-saving impact your donations have made, from rescuing 52 bulls from neglect to rescuing Rocky from a ritualistic sacrifice.

Thanks to the incredible support of our compassionate AAA community, Starting Over in Israel continues to bring kindness and healing to donkeys who have endured so much. Every rescue, every moment of care and every happy ending is only possible because of you.

Throughout November, Blind Love conducted a series of outreach events to care for cart horses in the community. Thank you to our kind-hearted supporters of Animal Aid Abroad. Your generous donations and compassion play an essential role in helping Blind Love provide care and support to working animals in South Africa.

A big thank you to all our amazing supporters! Your compassion and care mean the world to working donkeys in desperate need of help. Because of you, together with our project partner Blind Love, we can provide treatments, humane harnesses, resources and kindness to support working animals.

One day, the team visited the village of Luniawas, where a camel owner named Sitaram approached them with his camel. He explained that the camel had a wound on its lower jaw, which was infested with worms. The camel was in significant pain and visibly restless.
