Our volunteer Melissa who spent five weeks with us this spring took some time during her last days and did videos of the dogs! Here is a sample of some of them, enjoy! 

Beach Day 

During the winter of 2024/2025 we took time to bring some dogs down to the beach for a day of relaxing in the sand! We hope to be able to continue this through out the year! 

We love making friends!
And one way to do that is to keep you in the loop of what’s going on at the shelter.

Play Pen

Happy dogs! 

We are so happy to announce that we now have a new play pen for our residents! 

​

Some of them spend alone time just strolling around, taking naps stretched out in the sun.

 

Some makes new friends like Lucky and new girl Luna, see how lovely it is when they were caught on camera playing !

In 2024 we  found forever homes to 50 dogs! They were travelling to Italy, Sweden, Germany, Austria, the UK and some found homes here in Skiathos and in Athens!

Because every dog deserves to be loved!

You’ll find our dog shelter in the pine-covered hills on the island of Skiathos, with stunning views of the azure Aegean and nearby mainland.
 
Enjoying cool breezes in the hot summer and
tranquility at night, the land kindly donated by the Evangelistria Monastery provides a safe haven for dogs looking for their forever homes. 

Visitors to the island can walk, cuddle and help care for our dogs as often as they like or are able to (during opening hours). And if you fall in love with a dog while you’re here, our team of volunteers will do everything possible to assist you in rehoming your new best friend!

Most of our dogs have been given to us by owners who are no longer able to look after them. Some are delivered to our 24/7 holding pen by good Samaritans, with anonymity assured. Some are born here.
​When dogs arrive, the first thing we do is check for a microchip or try to contact the owner by word-of-mouth, in an attempt to discover the dog’s backstory, which can be a great help with rehoming.

As always, anonymity is assured.​

-A word from our dogs in
their Forever Homes

Luka was a happy easy going dog that was loved by the visitors but never met his forever home, until....

Sture (Stevie) was left tied to a tree beside the shelter one morning. Being a sweet puppie he was popular, but as he grew he started to feel unsure about people ond his surroundings...
