Chinthana is a Commerce graduate with an MBA, who has now dedicated her time and effort towards animal welfare. A desk job was never on her agenda. She found her calling in entrepreneurship and has run a corporate catering business and has also been a restaurateur Today, Chinthana runs a three year old 'Pupcake' which is a bakery for dogs! They make birthday cakes and treats of all kinds, catering especially to your furry companions. An active worker for the wellbeing of animals, she has rescued a number of abandoned dogs and contributed to their rehabilitation. She has also found loving homes for many dogs. "My proudest achievements are the many families that are complete today because I have helped them adopt a dog," says a Chinthana whose unparalleled love for the beautiful creatures has effectively helped spread awareness against animal abuse and abandonment. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
