About SAW

We're Pune's Highly Trusted Animal Rescue Team

At Sinhgad Animal Welfare Charitable Trust (SAW), our primary focus is on conducting Animal Birth Control (ABC) drives across Pune, successfully sterilizing over 4,000 dogs with the support of Canine Control and Care Trust and Blue Cross Society of Pune Trust . Our dedicated volunteers play a crucial role in these efforts, alongside our partners Animal Rescue Trust, Rescue Charitable Trust and others who assist us in attending to thousands of injured animals. 

Our adoption coordinators work tirelessly to find loving, permanent homes for our indies, ensuring they lead safe and healthy lives. Every SAW volunteer is also a feeder, contributing significantly to our animal welfare mission. Guided by the belief that animals deserve love, compassion, and respect, we are committed to providing special care and attention to stray dogs/cats and abandoned pets.

I have been ascociated with SAW for last 3-4 years and must say it’s been my one of the divine experiences. SAW Management team have always been a great help and support when it comes to any rescue or medical help required for our stray furries. They are always just a call away and has been always there whenever support is needed. It’s been my pleasure all the way to be ascociated with the organisation though my contribution is very less at the moment but am definitely keen to work with them more closely in future. God bless them always!

When I understood about SAW (Sinhgad Animal Welfare Charitable Trust), there was only a team of 3 to 4 volunteers and an old Omni ambulance. Even back then, the SAW team managed as many cases as possible. Now, thanks to hard work and dedication, the SAW team is not only active in Pune but also in nearby rural areas. Whether it’s adoptions, rescues, or sterilization drives, the SAW team has been helping as much as possible. Of course, they’ve faced many struggles, ups and downs, but SAW has now built a strong reputation of its own in Pune and nearby cities. I feel proud to be a part of the SAW family.
