We found Trixie trembling, starving, and alone …


Trixie was too scared to trust anyone - until now.

We found Trixie hiding in the grass, too terrified to come near us — her frail body trembling from hunger and exhaustion.


The sight of her sniffing through garbage for scraps of food in the sweltering heat was heartbreaking. We could tell she had given birth to a litter of puppies, but despite our desperate searching, none of her puppies could be found.


Patiently, we stayed by her side, waiting for her to trust us. Little by little, Trixie's fear began to melt away. Finally, she allowed us to help her.


Now Trixie is safe, happy, and surrounded by love — her days of fear and suffering are behind her.


Safe at last: Trixie's new chapter begins here.

Through our ongoing study, we’ve rescued over 150 dogs, known as the Pilot Pups, sparing them from lives of starvation and cruelty on the streets.


But saving them is only the beginning of our mission.


Once cleared by a veterinarian, the brave Pilot Pups are fed a trial of our One-Dose Spay and Neuter Cookie and later undergo routine spay surgery to carefully remove their ovaries.


Studying these ovaries allows us to measure how effective the trial Cookie is at preventing reproduction. The more impaired follicles, the closer the Pilot Pup is to becoming infertile.

The health and happiness of our Pilot Pups are always our top priorities. Every dog is cared for by a veterinarian or in a loving home — not in a laboratory.


Our mission is to end the #1 cause of suffering and death for dogs and cats — overpopulation — by developing a permanent-lasting birth control cookie that will only need to be eaten one time, and it will in effect spay or neuter — without surgery.

Help end the #1 cause of suffering for dogs and cats ... for as little as $5 a month.



We can never thank you enough for caring!
