❤️BARKING MAD SNOWDON TREK - 7 DAYS TO GO!❤️
We will be trekking Snowdon in fancy dress to raise funds for Lemnos dog shelter
If your dog would like to help the dogs left behind it’s just one paw click here:

Your past generosity has made a massive difference to the shelter but it’s still hell. As fast as we re-home 3 dogs another 4/6 puppies arrive.
So many dogs are back incarcerated 24/7 those inhumane cages and desperate to be housed in the bigger spaces which we created. There only relief is when the volunteers arrive.
Even the smallest donation really will make a huge difference to shelter life and if we can reach £6500 we have a kind sponsor who will double that!
Enormous thanks to those doggies who have already sponsored. Your friends left behind are forever grateful❤️
❤️SETTERS FOR SOFAS❤️
Lemnos Shelter has a constant influx of adorable Setters who have been dumped by hunters. They probably failed as working dogs and that’s why they got dumped but they will make wonderful family pets and just need lots of love and exercise. Please meet Nikolai, Skylar, Speedy and Mr Darcy.
Please email our Fiona if you’re interested in finding out more about these stunning dogs.

Following a homecheck, we make adopting through Starlight Barking an easy process. We take care of vaccinations, health checks, blood tests and legal paperwork in both Greece and the UK.
Any one of these gorgeous dogs could be on our trip next month.
Please check out their stories on our website:

Whether running or supporting - it’s a brilliant day out and will help so many more dogs.

❤️RESCUE HEROES of GREECE❤️
The volunteers in Greece have been true heroes working tirelessly to save the animals who have survived the fires and floods. Many animals have horrific injuries but they are now being cared for by many different charities.
Our rescue friends at Saving Saints Rescue UK have offered to re-home some of the bigger dogs in this video and will be bringing them to the UK soon.
It’s never easy to re-home the large breed dogs, especially if they need on-going medical treatment, so if you know someone with a big heart who is experienced with bigger breeds please do put them in touch with Tracey Turnbull
There are no words to express how incredible these rescuers have been. They’ve worked together round the clock to find solutions for so many distressed animals.
Enormous thank you to everyone- YOU ARE ALL TRUE HEROES!!!
Thank you Saving Saints Rescue UK for sharing these sad scenes in your video.
❤️MEET KATERINA and ANGELOS❤️
Our 2 super heroes at Lemnos Shelter could not continue their inspirational work without the help of some of our amazing supporters.
Please meet Katerina and Angelos who visit Lemnos Shelter every summer and spend time doing the very important work of socialising and helping us understand who will make the best dogs for families with young children.
Back home in the UK Katerina has started fundraisers with her school friends and also acts as our unofficial PA keeping us on our toes reminding us of our re-homing targets which currently stands at 30 dogs ready and waiting to travel to their new homes as soon as we find them their perfect family.
Please help us - they’re just gorgeous dogs and their stories are here:

❤️SNOWDON COUNT DOWN - PLEASE MAKE IT £5000! ❤️
With just 7 days to go until our SNOWDON TREK thanks to so many of your lovely dogs for sponsoring - we’ve just hit an amazing £1785 in donations.
If we can make it to £5000 then one very kind sponsor will double it to £10,000
We know times are tight - but for the dogs still waiting incarcerated 24/7 in tiny kennels please can you spare even a pound or two so we can make their lives a little better.
Massive thanks to everyone who donated last year. Please check out the video to see the enormous difference you’ve made to the lives of the bigger dogs who now live in the “posh” part of the shelter in little social groups. It’s not quite Heaven but its masses better than their old Hell.
