Welcome to the Langkawi Animal Shelter & Sanctuary Foundation.
The Langkawi Animal Shelter and Sanctuary Foundation is set-up to receive, rehabilitate and care for neglected, abused and needy animals. The organization also runs the Langkawi Island Animal Clinic - a charity project aimed at the sterilization of the stray cat & dog population. Both are non profit ventures, staffed partly by volunteers and aimed at improving the lives of unwanted animals.

Berjaya the Wonder Dog »
Berjaya means success in Bahasa Malaysia. Not a bad name for a dog who managed to survive after being hit by a car and hiding for days with a broken pelvis and a broken leg, too scared to come out. It’s even a pretty accurate one when you think that Berjaya is now eagerly waiting for her everyday walk, barking in excitement when she hears the staff’s footsteps outside her door.

The Story of LASSie – The Langkawi Animal Shelter & Sanctuary »
Bon Ton and the animals go back a long way. Over twenty years ago, Bon Ton Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia began rescuing and sheltering street dogs, seven of which made the journey to Langkawi with Narelle when she opened the restaurant's island branch.
