It’s no secret that we have to work harder and longer to catch each dog now, and when our patience runs thin, it sometimes helps to look at the bigger picture.

This is what the past 18 months of KLD's work looks like on a map. Every dot represents one or more dogs we have sterilised and returned to their territory.

We map the dogs because targeted sterilisation is about more than numbers. It means knowing where dogs are, working in specific areas, getting dogs familiar with us, and building on the work that has already been done.

After years of working in Kuta, there are fewer unsterilised dogs left. That means every dog we sterilise now represents a larger part of the remaining breeding population, and preventing that one dog from breeding has an increasingly important effect on what happens next.

We’re not starting from scratch each time. We’re building on years of sterilisation in the same area, reducing the number of dogs able to breed and the puppies that follow.

If you’re coming to Kuta Lombok, you’re going to meet the locals!

And some of them have four legs.

Here’s your short guide to Kuta’s street dogs - what to do, what not to do, and a few things you might not know🤔

Save it for your trip, send it to your travel buddy and happy travels 🏝🐾

We’d rather catch them when we see them.. like this girl who was sterilised on a Sunday afternoon🙌

Thanks to Paws & Claws Lombok - Vet and Pet Shop, we now have some much-needed flexibility to sterilise dogs outside our regular Friday days. This means we can try catching the difficult dogs when we see them, rather than waiting until Friday.

We’ve also added a 🔗link to a simple reporting tool in our bio, making it easier for you to report any unsterilised dog you may come across around Kuta.

To us, this may not look like a home. To her, it is.

It’s the place she knows where to find food, where to sleep, which dogs she belongs with, and how to survive.

Taking her somewhere else doesn’t solve the problem of street dog overpopulation. Sterilisation does.

She won’t have puppies and she won’t add another generation to the streets. She gets to stay in the place she knows as home, while the puppies she would have had will never have to face life on the streets.

She stays. But a whole generation is prevented.

Sterilisation can look like one simple moment: A dog goes into surgery and comes out sterilised.

But for us, that’s only one part of the story.

Getting one dog to that moment can take months. It starts with finding them and slowly gaining their trust, over many weeks or months, before we can safely catch them.

Then there's the transport, the surgery and finally returning them to the place they know as home.

And then comes the part nobody sees:
The puppies that won’t be born into the streets.

That’s the invisible work behind every sterilisation.

Catch. Sterilise. Return.

Unfortunately, we get asked to share posters like this too often.

It starts with good intentions, but taking in a street dog while visiting the island for a few weeks or months isn't a rescue. These temporary "adoptions" usually do far more harm than good.

Many people believe they're helping. The reality is often the opposite.

A dog that has adapted to life on the streets relies on sharp survival instincts and established territory. Living indoors changes all of that. When they're put back on the street, they're confused, vulnerable and often targeted by local packs after losing their territory.

There's also another side to this. Every time a dog is left behind, the burden falls on the small network of people who care about the island's street dogs. Limited time, money and resources are diverted to help a dog that never should have been abandoned in the first place.

𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗴𝘀:
• Support sterilisation programs. It's the only proven way to reduce the stray population and prevent suffering at its source.
• Only take a dog into your home if you're prepared to commit for life.

Merlot's story isn't unique and we can only hope hers has a different ending. If you can offer her a responsible, lifelong home, please send us a DM.

This female will never have another litter.
You won't see the suffering that was prevented. You won't see the puppies that were never born or the hungry mouths that never needed feeding.

That's why sterilisation is difficult to photograph. We can show you the surgery. We can show you the dogs. But the biggest impact is the future that never happened.

This is what your support makes possible. Help us create more invisible victories 🫶

Not every street dog is easy to catch... and that's exactly why they need us most 🐾

Last Friday, we focused almost exclusively on the dogs from our "difficult dogs" list; the dogs we've spent months trying to gain the trust of so we could finally sterilise them.

This young girl was one of them. She lives in a particularly challenging area and after being darted she ran into thick bush to fall asleep. Our team then had to search through dense vegetation to find her before bringing her safely to the clinic.

Unfortunately, we weren't able to catch her sister this time. She remains high on our priority list and we'll keep working until she too can enjoy a puppy-free life.

Every dog we sterilise prevents countless future litters from being born on the streets. That's why we never give up on the difficult ones.

If you'd like to help us get the sister next, you can sponsor her sterilisation through the donation link in our bio.

Every donation helps us keep going🩷

We're excited to share that Kuta Lombok Dogs now has a "home" at the brand-new Vet & Petshop which is officially opening tomorrow 10 July.

The clinic is a big step forward for animal welfare in Kuta. It will be home to Kuta's first full-time veterinarian, Drh. Mei and her team, while also providing Drh. Nurul with a dedicated space to work from when she's in town.

Kuta Lombok Dogs remains completely independent and will continue operating exactly as we always have. We have no ownership or financial stake in the clinic.

The new location will give us a permanent space for our KLD t-shirts and tote bags, making it easier than ever to support our sterilisation programme when you're around.

This new chapter will help strengthen our sterilisation efforts and support a healthier future for Kuta's dogs. Let's go!🔥

We've been a little quiet on social media lately... but definitely busy on the ground.

The past month has been filled with some very challenging dogs, who needed tons of patient work before they could safely make it to sterilisation day.

On Friday, we got to breathe a sigh of relief when 18 of those dogs were successfully sterilised. Thanks to reports from the community, we even squeezed in dogs that weren't originally on the list🙌 It wasn't easy, but days like this remind us why persistence matters.

A huge thank you to Dr. Charlie and The University of Melbourne team who were back to assist Drh. Nurul and Drh. Mei. The energy was high and everything flowed smoothly.

Your donations keep making all this possible, and together we're creating lasting change for Kuta's street dogs❤️
