From despair to hope.
From fear to freedom.
From survival to a life worth living.
GAIA exists for the dogs who have been forgotten — rescuing Bali's street dogs, giving them safety, healing and the chance to find a forever home.
Saving Bali's street dogs, one life at a time
Why we do this
"Saving the life of one dog won't change the world, but the world will certainly change for that one dog."
Every dog we welcome off the streets is a whole world transformed — from hunger and fear to safety, care, and love. Your support makes that change possible.
Rescue. Restore. Rehome.
From forgotten to loved —
meet the dogs waiting for you.

Become Alfie's lifeline
Alfie was recently rescued after severe neglect. He couldn't use his back legs, was anaemic, and his bloods were all over the place. He has since had an amputation and now needs ongoing treatment — the amputation alone has cost $700, and your $50 a month keeps his recovery going. He'll soon move into our paralysed area and make lots of friends.

Found dumped with her face full of maggots, lived her last wonderful years loved at Gaia.
Odin
Thought he was blind. Severely neglected on the side of the road as if he was nothing.

Found as a puppy locked in a tiny cage howling. Now you wouldn't even know what he'd been through.
Cliffy
Found on the edge of a cliff in Uluwatu, absolutely petrified. Slowly making progress.
