The Sanctuary We Will Build

A living ecosystem designed for deep healing. To be built of earth, wood, and intention.

This page is a plan, not a place. Shri Hari Hive does not have its land yet; finding and securing it, near Mohali in Punjab, is the first milestone of a five-year road. What follows is what we will build on it — an architectural expression of our core philosophy. No concrete cages and cold floors: mud, brick, thatch and the earth. Every structure designed to sit inside the natural world, so that our rescued dogs — and the humans who come to them — can breathe freely.

Planned

The Open Run

A sprawling, secure field where the dogs will spend the majority of their day. For animals that have lived their lives chained or confined to tiny cages, the ability to sprint across open dirt is the first step back to a calm, happy life.

Rustic kitchen area
Planned

The Langar Hall

Following the Sikh tradition of community feeding, the Langar Hall will be the heart of the sanctuary. It is a large, open-air pavilion where food is prepared with love—every day for the dogs, and throughout the day for visitors and volunteers. Everyone eats together on the same level.

Planning Phase

The Kutias (Huts)

Small, isolated mud huts scattered around the perimeter of the campus. These are purely for human visitors. Built without electricity, they offer a space for absolute silence. The only sounds are the wind in the trees and the distant barking of dogs living in the present moment.

Help Lay the Bricks

The land, the Langar Hall and the Kutias are unfunded. We need your help to make this dream a place.
