Sasha's Shelter

Sasha's Shelter A shelter for over 750 abandoned dogs. Become a Patron for just $10 per month

www.sashashelter.com It’s a massive challenge to cover all these fixed costs.

Over the past 14 years, Sasha Pesic has saved over 1500 dogs around the city of Nis, Serbia. The majority of the dogs were rescued from cruel conditions, they were abused and on the verge of death. Over 700 dogs have been happily adopted and are enjoying their new lives - full of love, safety and joy. The rest of Sasha’s 750 dog pack is, however, still in two improvised shelters in Nis, left to be

managed solely by Sasha’s unconditional love for these creatures. He knows every dog by name, gives them over 8 hours of outdoor time a day, and has dedicated his life to keeping every dog happy, healthy, and alive. Unfortunately, love alone will not feed, vaccinate and provide infrastructure for these dogs and that is why we are reaching out for help. Sasha’s Shelter’s only chance of becoming sustainable is to develop a stable monthly income. You can help Sasha by becoming his Patron on patreon.com/sashashelter

This will allow you to subscribe to donating as little as $2 a month to helping this man and his 750 best friends. In return, Patrons will get access to exclusive content and rescue stories, and feel the real satisfaction of helping out his amazing 750 dog pack. Become our Patron, help our dogs, create happy stories with us. Thank you.

A GIFT 💝 FOR SASHA’S BIRTHDAY 🥳

More than 15 years ago, Sasha was at a landfill when he heard some pitiful cries.
Looking for the source he found 4 puppies covered in trash. He could not believe the cruelty of people that would deliberately dump these innocents to die from starvation and exposure.

He took the frail little ones to his apartment. They thrived under his care. 💖

People heard about this man who loved animals - they began dumping puppies in front of his apartment. Then came phone calls about injured dogs, chained dogs , starving abused dogs - all needing a savior.

And so it began. A sanctuary was born. 🌟

Sasha is still taking care of over 700 dumped and abandoned dogs.
Sasha never expected his life to change so drastically but he has dedicated his life to all these innocent dogs who need daily care.

Together, we can honor the tireless work of a true hero and give unwanted dogs a second chance at life. 🐶🐾

Let’s make this birthday one to remember — for Sasha and for the dogs he loves so much.

Please give Sasha the best birthday gift ever - donate for the dogs today.

A HOME OF MY OWN!!!

Hello dear friends! Dzoni/Johnny here. I’m the star sitting on the wood pile of the Gofundme photo.

Thanks to your sharing I was offered the opportunity of a lifetime! I can leave the shelter! A golden basket is waiting for me! How wonderful that is that?

Can I also thank you sincerely for the wooden logs support?

You have no idea how happy we are about this! As you can see,the wood is more like big logs and our dear workers still have to saw and chop them all in pieces.

A winter fitness workout, but it'll warm you up.

Your help means so much to us, you can change our future. I will never forget my friends.

But I am so curious, a home of my own, what will that look like?

Your grateful Dzoni/Johnny ❤️❤️❤️❤️

It’s gotten cold here already. Your kindness and generosity is providing the wood that allows us to fill the stoves to keep the dogs warm.

The seniors especially gather round the stoves. They don’t ask for much - some hot food and a warm stove to gather near.

Most of our dogs are short-haired - they feel the cold keenly. All the dogs are so very grateful for some heat to endure the upcoming winter months.

Thank you all immensely for supporting Sasha’s dogs. ❤️❤️❤️

This November, we're paying special attention to the bond we share with our senior dogs. As part of Senior Dog Month, we want to ensure that Johnny and his friends are warm. Our shelter is in urgent need of wood to keep warm and every donation helps provide it for our senior dogs 🆘️

The shelter needs 60 cubic meters of wood. A cubic meter costs 65€. 🪵🪵🪵

Winter Wood for Sasha's Dogs

Winter comes early here to Sasha's Shelter. Winter brings frigid cold, icy winds and snow. Temperatures drop even more severely at night.

The dogs can't withstand these extreme conditions 🆘️

We need wood to build fires 🔥 around the shelter to create some heat for the dogs and to cook some hot soup to warm the dogs bellies - to prevent them from getting weak and sick.

Sasha's many old dogs in Seniors Center will suffer terribly without wood for the stove. 🆘️

Please help protect our shelter dogs from freezing in the cold temperatures.

November is Senior Dog Month a time to honor our wise and wonderful older dogs.

Meet Crnche, a gentle soul who has been part of our shelter family since 2015. Despite the years he’s spent here, Crnche’s spirit remains bright, and his love for people is boundless 🧡

Senior dogs like Crnche bring joy, companionship, and a wealth of experience to our lives. They may not be as spry as their younger counterparts, but their loyalty and affection are unmatched. This month, we invite you to support our mission to care for these incredible dogs.

Your donations help us cover medical expenses and provide the specialized nutrition that seniors like Crnche need to thrive. Let’s give them the love and care they deserve! 🙏

Consider donating today to make a difference in the lives of our senior dogs. Thank you for your support!

As the sun begins to rise over the shelter, Sasha steps outside, surrounded by the joyful barks of the dogs eager for a new day. Each wagging tail and happy face reminds him of the countless lives transformed within these walls. He takes a moment to kneel, giving each dog a gentle pat, whispering words of love and encouragement 🧡

Sasha walks with them through the shelter. Each dog has a story, a former struggle before being rescued and the shelter has become a safe haven for them.

But this sanctuary depends on the kindness of others. As Sasha embraces his furry companions, he knows that their future relies on the generosity of compassionate hearts.

With your support, we can continue to provide love and care for these amazing dogs. Please consider donating today, and help us create more happy beginnings.

Together, let’s ensure that every wagging tail feels the warmth and steady meals. Thank you for being a part of this journey! 🙏

Hi, I'm Lala, and this is my friend, Vinki! We may have wagging tails and playful barks, but there are so many dogs like us in Sasha's Shelter who need your help 🙏

We live at a shelter where we get love and proper care, but love alone will not provide regular food and we’re asking for your ongoing support in order to provide food, medical care, and a warm place for all our friends in need 🧡

Every little bit helps! Your donations can make a huge difference in our lives and the lives of our pack pals.

Thank you for considering a donation to our shelter!

With paws and gratitude,
Lala & Vinki 🐾

Our Story

Founded by great animal lover Saša Pešić in 2008. our shelter has grown over the years to become a UNIQUE place, permanent or foster home for 700+ dogs. Every dog within our care met us in the worst moments of their life. All walked through fire, we rescued each&single one from life endangering conditions, with 0 chances to survive, often with broken bonds and broken hearts! That is how we meet for the first time! It is only then the real struggle begins! Sleepless nights. Days full of worries. Inexhaustible energy. Over and over again. We fear for all of them. For each of 700+ of them. For their health. For their food. For their safety. For their short life they worked so hard for! THE DOGS NEED YOU TO WIN THIS BATTLE! Each of our 4-legged friends needs 16 eur per month for his life within the shelter! With ONLY 16 eur per month we are able to provide good life for the dog including food, safe and dry place for living and sleeping, everyday cleaning of their ‘home’, basic vet care, every day play, fun and freedom during 8h, socialization and close contact with all of our 7 caretakers! 700+ dogs need more than 10500 eur per month! Additional support is needed for our disabled animals and the ‘special cases’ that require more extensive medical attention, as well as domestic 24/7 care that we are not always able to provide, due to lack of funding. Our only sources of financial support are YOUR donations! These dogs wouldnt be here today if it wasnt for our shelter. All of these dogs were rescued from the streets of Nis, in desperate need of help. Some were injured, some were sick others were too young to make it on their own. As you can see, today they live happy lives and are safe in our sanctuary. Sadly, their happiness is in our hands and we are in a desperate situation. We have over 700 dogs in our care and that means we have over 700 mouths to feed. Each month we struggle to fund the food bill despite the help from the amazing Harmony Fund. This month is no different, so we ask you to please share our appeal and donate a $1 or $2 via this link. All donations come directly to our dogs and now that we have saved them from cruel streets of Nis we are responsible for their happiness and therefore we ask you to help us keep their bellies full ! Thank you! Please visit our donation page-donate and share! http://harmonyfund.org/donate/help-feed-care-for-600-dogs-in-serbia

Der Shelter wurde 2009 von Sasa Pesic gegründet und hat sich im Lauf der Jahre zu einem einzigartigen Zufluchtsort für mittlerweile über 700 Hunde entwickelt. Jeder einzelne Hund im Lager hat seine eigene schlimme Geschichte – wurde aus schwierigen, manchmal sogar lebensbedrohlichen Situationen gerettet. Verletzt, verstoßen, ausgesetzt, oftmals mit gebrochenen Knochen, aber immer mit gebrochenen Herzen – so treffen wir unsere Schützlinge meist zum ersten Mal. Dann beginnt für uns der eigentliche Kampf: Schlaflose Nächte, Tage voller Sorgen. Wir gehen jeden Tag an die Grenzen unserer Energiereserven – und darüber hinaus. Wir sorgen uns um jeden einzelnen unserer Hunde. Um ihre Gesundheit, um ihre Sicherheit, darum, sie ernähren zu können. Sie haben so hart gekämpft. Das mindeste, was wir tun können, ist, ihnen ein lebenswertes Leben zu ermöglichen. UM DIESEN KAMPF ZU GEWINNEN, BRAUCHEN WIR EURE HILFE Jeder unserer vierbeinigen Freunde verschlingt im Monat ca. 16 Euro. Mit NUR 16 Euro im Monat können wir einem Hund ein lebenswertes Hundeleben inklusive Futter und einem sicheren, warmen und sauberen Schlafplatz und grundlegender medizinischer Versorgung ermöglichen. Dabei legen wir besonderen Wert darauf, unseren Hunden möglichst viel „Freiheit“ zu bieten. Zwingerhaltung gibt es bei uns nicht. Mindestens 8 Stunden/Tag können sich die Hunde unter der Aufsicht unserer Arbeiter völlig frei im Lager bewegen! Für einen einzelnen Spender sind 16 Euro keine große Summe. Doch über 600 Hunde benötigen mehr als 10500 Euro JEDEN Monat. Zusätzliche Kosten entstehen für die Betreuung von Tieren mit Handicap oder die Betreuung von kranken Tieren, die aufwändigere medizinische Betreuung oder rund-um-die-Uhr Pflege benötigen. Wir geraten JEDEN TAG an unsere finanziellen Grenzen und wir benötigen dringend eure Hilfe! Da Serbien kein EU-Land ist, fallen bei einer Überweisung hohe Transferkosten an. Die einfachste Möglichkeit, uns zu helfen, ist eine Spende via http://harmonyfund.org/donate/help-feed-care-for-600-dogs-in-serbia
