anelia Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Hi,During my holiday in Greece this year, as I was walking through a country road near Athens,these two beautiful pups jumped out from the fields howling in desperation and craving love, help and attention.Abandoned in the middle of nowhere. I had walked the same road another 5 times the previous couple of days, so these pups had clearly been abandoned that day and left to die from starvation, dehydration or be killed by speeding cars.I could never leave them there, and there is a country road with speeding cars that passes by the fields, and took them home with me, where they are kindly being fostered by a lady.However, she cannot look after them for much longer, and we are desperately looking for serious people who can offer loving homes for these two beautiful doggies here in the UK, as nothing has been found in Greece.It would be amazing if they could be adopted together, because they are inseparable, and never leave each other's side. But even if they have to go to separate homes we have to look at the big picture overall.The brown and white pup is a girl and the black pup is a boy, and should become medium sized dogs.They will need to be microchipped, vaccinated and have their passports made. I'm willing to contribute to the costs of those, but am also on a limited budget. I am making inquiries to find the most affordable option for these.Their transport from Athens, Greece--> UK needs to be covered by the new owners, but am in contact with a lady, Elaine Karmasyn,who helps many Greek strays and the cost of travel is very reasonable.It will be 80 Euros per dog from Athens-> Brussels and then Pet passport control in France is ?18 per dog.I would also please ask for a discretionary donation towards the lady's extra costs, such as petrol during car transport from Brussels to UK and her costs to get to the UK. She runs the foundation Greek Strays and does a lot of fantastic work.Thanks very much,Anelia Samaropoulosemail: [email protected]Mob: 07906592155http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14022133_10153675129707027_723293935688342433_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14316899_10153749836387027_7343387029158733090_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14333587_10153749836497027_4921991939586009698_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14063744_10153675129427027_106113747083331082_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14344769_10153749837022027_3598978156112123661_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14333748_10153749836392027_1346563632963698382_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/13962754_10153675129257027_3741642565425600775_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/13934605_10153675130032027_8000498781829958887_n.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b226/anelia/14364742_10153749836977027_613839814462885396_n.jpg Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/123507-two-rescued-greek-stray-puppies-looking-for-loving-homes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

titch juicy Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 There seems to be a big problem for strays in Greece.I worked a summer season many years ago in Corfu and children tried to flog stray pups to tourists (and workers) all the time. Unfortunately, without all the right jabs etc. it's a non-starter.It sounds like the lady you're talking about is doing a fine job though :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/123507-two-rescued-greek-stray-puppies-looking-for-loving-homes/#findComment-1049178 Share on other sites More sharing options...
binkylilyput Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Nope, someone trying to find a home for two stray puppies is a long way away from what I find distastefulGood luck anelia, you really are a kind soul for helping these little ones> alice Wrote:> --------------------------------------------------> -----> > Sorry folks but does anyone else find this> thread> > distasteful?

Mystic Mog Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 No, not in any way distasteful. What exactly do you mean? A genuine, caring person trying to do a good deed, should be commended, not criticised!

Take Note Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I don't think it's distasteful in anyway. I think what you've done is highly commendable and if I had the money / space / time etc etc I'd help out. My only concern is we have enough shelters full of unwanted dogs here of our own. What Greece (and other countries for whom these charities work tirelessly and with little money) is funding for education and vaccinations to bring the doggie population down. Another charity is K-9 Angels but I know they are stretched, too.That said, I do hope they find a loving home very soon :) Keep us updated.

Nigello Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I agree with Take Note. We have - very sadly - any number of neglected, unwanted, abused pets who are much more cheaply and with less impact on CO2 levels housed here. Tackling the problem in Greece and other places with education, neutering etc would be a better way of going about things, though I understand why people want to help in any way they can.

Jules-and-Boo Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 no, Alice.... I don't. Showing compassion for another creature is never 'distateful' and should only be encouraged.Perhaps chanelling it into something proactive would also be beneficial - education, working with charities to raise awareness/ funds etc to relieve the problem at the outset....
