Hi my name is Anne. During our holiday with my daughter in Sri Lanka we came across one of the most neglected street dog cases we'd ever seen, and we couldn't walk away.

The dog was days away from dying as we spotted him slowly limping across the busy road, no one looking his way. We approached with food and he ate a small amount - we knew then that there was hope. We named him Potato.

We have found a local guardian to take care of Potato while we raise the funds to get him back to the UK, but sadly this is not cheap. We have been quoted almost 10,000 GBP.

This is why we desperately need your help. Potato has a broken leg, a broken pelvis, invasive mange and is completely emaciated. We would appreciate anything you can give to help bring this sweet boy to the UK to get the attention and love he has been lacking.
