Since 2019 · Lebanon & Canada

Every rescue starts
with someone who doesn't look away.

The Critter Whisperers Society is a holistic, foster-based rescue run by animal lovers on two continents — giving stray and neglected dogs in Lebanon a path to forever homes abroad.

The Journey We Build
Lebanon
Rescue & rehabilitation
Canada
Foster & forever homes

Individual rescuers, one shared mission.

Our journey began individually, years before we became a team — each of us rescuing dogs in our own communities and extending our reach whenever we could.

Driven by a shared passion for animal welfare, we came together to form The Critter Whisperers Society in Lebanon, committed to improving the lives of strays and neglected animals.

Amid Lebanon's ongoing economic, political, and security challenges over the past several years, our work has been tested again and again. But the need has only grown — and so has our resolve. We're working to transform our grassroots volunteer effort into a formal non-profit organization, so we can secure the sponsorships and partnerships needed to do more.

Today, we support local shelters like Buddha's Pack (BP) by managing their social media, organizing fundraising efforts, and facilitating international adoptions — primarily to Canada and Europe.
