Happy endings

Natalia came with her two sisters and her brother from the public pound of Sparta.

These four little dogs suffered perhaps more than any other animal there. Not because they were in worse conditions than the rest, not because they were sicker than others, but because their temperament could not stand the conditions at all, not for a minute. 

These dogs suffered mentally every hour and every moment, and they showed it with every movement of their bodies, with their every gaze. Injustice, terrorism and passive abuse seemed literally painted on their faces and bodies.

We thought they were puppies, but they are not. They are four adult puppies, tiny and young, probably siblings, and have the sensitivity and kindness of a toddler.

Of the four, Natalia and the boy were from the beginning the most courageous. Natalia was the first of the four who approached us, but she smelled, she trusted us. After that, the rest followed.

Since February 2023 she has been participating in our program at the women's open prison of Thebes. There she is hosted and with the help of the trainer she learns to live in a home, to cooperate with people, to communicate with other dogs and cats, and is being prepared for her forever home. The training program she follows there has helped her a lot, as it has helped many other dogs like her in the past, who need exclusivity and enough time to open up.

You just can't have enough of puppies, and especially when they're like Winnie you can't have enough no matter how much time you spend with them.

Our boy was found in the winter, under a car, when he was the size of a kitten basically. From that day until today, nothing has changed at all besides his size.

He is an incredibly playful baby, who wants to play with you, not alone. As long as you throw the ball, he will run to catch it, as long as you pull the toy, he will pull from the other side, if you run he will follow you, if you call him to come, if you sit down he will come for caresses and he will lie down on his back and surrender.

He is happy, social, and brilliant. Truly brilliant, capable and ready to learn everything. And he is looking for his forever home.

Chrisanthi is like a flower bud that is too scared to bloom. A bud that hides inside it the most beautiful flower, a sweet, tender and velvety flower.

She came from the public poundl of Sparta, frightened and discteer, as if she did not know what she was allowed to do and what she was not allowed to do.

She likes human contact so much that she overcomes her hesitation and comes to you to be petted. She follows you loyaly on her walk, and when she relaxes, a smile pops up of what makes you laugh with your soul.

She is a small and short hound, which will open up very easily in a home, and when she does open up, she will become funny and cute - cuteer than she is now.

Charles is a GOOD DOG. That's all..

He is good, in every meaning that the word can have when talking about a dog. He lets you stir his hair, flop his ears back and forth, you smoosh him and he smiles and he ' so happy and he plays and he is a GOOD dog.

He is good with the other dogs, he is good with people, he is good at shelter and he will be very, very good in a home as well.

What else can we say now? We are anxious because dogs like him do not usually attract attention, do not catch the eye, and stay in the shelter more than they should, while they belong to a family. This is what we think about when we look at him, and we apologize to him and the only thing we wish is that we are proven wrong.
