Brittany's BARC Experience...

Helping those less fortunate in Bali


As we mentioned in our previous newsletter, our nurse Brittany was travelling to Bali in November to visit the Bali Dog Adoption and Rehabilitation Centre (BARC).

She had a fantastic time and really enjoyed spending time with the beautiful dogs. Even though many of them had suffered horrible injuries and had not had the best start to their lives, they were some of the happiest dogs Brittany had ever met. Every one was so loving and enjoyed every bit of attention that they were given. BARC is an amazing place that is home (both temporarily and permanently) to a large number of dogs who all get along and live in harmony. BARC’s aim is to spey and neuter as many stray dogs as possibly to reduce the number of street dogs that are in Bali.

Brittany took over 18.3kg of donations (Hills food, collars, leads, toys, bowls, medication and medical supplies). The people at BARC were so thankful for everyone’s generosity. They rely on donations to be able to do what they do, so at the clinic we have got a ‘BARC’ donation container in our staff room. If you ever have spare toys, bowls, medical supplies etc. feel free to drop them in and we will take them to a BARC drop off location, where they will be sent to Bali.
If you are ever holidaying in Bali stop in to visit the dogs, you don’t need to have a medical background. They are thankful for every minute you spend with their beautiful animals.
