Pet Haven Seychelles
The Pet Haven Seychelles animal shelter in the Seychelles is run by Myriam Hoareau and supported by many helpers.
Pet Haven provides shelter for approximately 380 dogs. We provide food, safety and medical care and if possible find a new, loving home for the dogs.
Our focus is not only on providing immediate help, but also on long-term solutions, such as spay and neuter programs and educational outreach.

Code of conduct
The code of conduct applies to all Board members and paid and volunteer staff at Pet Haven Seychelles.
Animal welfare
The welfare of animals takes priority in all decisions. Every animal must be treated with respect and provided with appropriate food, water, shelter, and necessary medical care.
Pet Haven Seychelles has a strict no-kill policy. Healthy or treatable animals will not be euthanised because of lack of space or length of stay. Euthanasia may only be considered based on the documented recommendation of a qualified veterinarian to prevent irremediable suffering.
Illness, injury, neglect or other risks must be reported immediately. Abuse, intimidation, physical punishment, permanent chaining and electric-shock, choke or prong collars are prohibited.
Veterinary, hygiene, quarantine, and safety instructions must be followed.
Animals may only be rehomed, transferred or removed from Pet Haven Seychelles with the approval of a Board Member. All adopters must sign an adoption contract.
Responsible cooperation
Instructions from the Board must be followed. Information concerning animals, treatments, and incidents must be complete and accurate.
Staff, visitors, and other persons involved must be treated with respect. Threats, insults, harassment, and discrimination will not be tolerated.
Integrity
Donations, adoption fees, food, medicines, vehicles, and other Pet Haven property may only be used for authorised purposes.
Concerns regarding animal welfare, safety, finances or conduct must be reported to the Board. Anyone raising a genuine concern in good faith must not suffer any disadvantage.
Breaches may result in a warning, suspension from duties or termination of involvement with Pet Haven Seychelles.
