J<\/p>\n<p>Of course in the Bali Zoo you can see huge elephants and all the major \u201cZOO\u201d animals\u2026 but let\u2019s talk about \u00a0the \u00a0poor\u00a0 Bali Street Dog for a moment.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0Bali Animals \u2013 Dog in Pain<\/h3>\n<p>The following is a true encounter I had with an unusual street dog sometimes called a \u201cWarung Dog\u201d since they normally attach themselves to a local Warung where they can pick up food scraps.<\/p>\n<p>This particular Dog was NOT the normal pure Bali Dog. that you see. This one \u00a0was a mix of a \u00a0Chihuahua Domestic Dog and a Bali Street dog, a beautiful looking dog.<\/p>\n<p>A friend and I were walking along Jl merta Nadi (nr the jail) when my friend (animal lover) spotted this dog lying on the pavement\u2026 and noticed that the dog was in pain.<\/p>\n<p>How she knew this I have no idea.. she has this\u00a0 thing with animals.. a kind of telepathy maybe..<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, sure enough on inspection the dog had what looked like an open wound at its rear end and was not comfortable moving around and mainly stayed lying down.<\/p>\n<p>My friend immediately delved into her bag and came up with a BAWA brochure.<\/p>\n<p>BAWA \u2013 <i>Bali Animals <\/i>\u00a0Welfare Association<\/p>\n<p>The main office of BAWA is in Ubud and my friend had been in the BAWA office the \u00a0previous week and they advised her that if she found sick or hurt animals on the street, especially Dogs to CALL the BAWA office immediately and they would send one of the animal\u00a0 ambulances to pick up the Dog.<\/p>\n<p>The ambulance at this particular time didn\u2019t seem to be available.<\/p>\n<p>So I then called my friend Dr. Matt Homfray who runs VET InterNational in Kuta to see if he could help.<\/p>\n<p>Matt was extremely concerned but asked\u00a0 us to first please\u00a0 try to get the BAWA ambulance since they have donations paying for this service. He also kindly offered his help, if the BAWA ambulance did not respond within the hour.<\/p>\n<p>1 hour went by and no sign of the BAWA ambulance.. so after another phone call to Matt he offered to send his .. 10 minutes later the Blue Ambulance turned up.The dog was expertly placed in a small cage and transported back to Vet International Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>I learned later that the dog had vaginal cancer but should respond well with Chemo\u2026 so we had probably saved that dog\u2019s life.. at least saved him from a lot of pain and suffering. Thanks Matt.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0For Bali Animals in Need<\/h3>\n<p>Many street dogs become injured or sick and suffer terribly.. so if you see one in trouble please call BAWA\u2026 they are funded with donations for this particular work and are ready and willing \u00a0to pick up any animal in trouble (except the human kind)<\/p>\n<p>BAWA Headquarters,<\/p>\n<p>Jalan Monkey Forest 100x,<\/p>\n<p>Ubud, Bali<\/p>\n<p>BAWA HQ: (0361) 977217<\/p>\n<p>BAWA 24-hour Rabies Hotline: 081 138 9004<\/p>\n<p>BAWA 24 hour Animal Ambulance: 081 138 9004<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand if you have a domestic pet\u00a0 for check up or for treatment contact the only InterNational Vet, 24hr animal hospital service in Bali:<\/p>\n<p>VET INTERNATIONAL:<\/p>\n<p>call: +62 361 754 881<\/p>\n<p>SMS: 0812 3208 1334<\/p>\n<p>website: www.vet-international.com rel=\u201dnofollow\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading this report on Bali Animals ..You are welcome to leave a comment about your Bali Animals experience<\/p>\n<p>My Best<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Wright<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Vets &amp; Pets And other Bali Animals Apparently, Tigers, Black Panthers or Leapards can still be found in Bali.. but are pretty rare.
