Hi there, I’m Esperanza! 🐾🥰

I’m about 10 years old—a lovely Setter with a heart full of love to give. One day, I found myself running scared through the streets of town, unsure of what had happened.

When the kind humans found me, they took me for a check-up and discovered I have Leishmania. But don’t worry! It’s under control, and I’m a healthy, happy girl now. I don’t let it slow me down one bit! ❤️

Let me tell you a little about myself. I’m super gentle and oh-so-friendly. I adore people and can’t get enough cuddles. Going for walks and exploring new smells? My favorite! I’m great with dogs of all shapes and sizes too. 🥰

The sad part is, many people haven’t considered adopting me because of my Leishmania. But I know there’s someone out there—a special someone—who will look past that and see the sweet, loving girl I am.

My name, Esperanza, means “hope,” and I’m still hoping for a forever family to call my own. Could that be you?

I promise to fill your life with love, tail wags, and lots of cuddles. 🐾💕

Hi there, I’m Annie! 🐾🥰

Not too long ago, a wonderful woman picked me up from the streets to get me neutered by the vet. During the operation, they discovered a huge tumor filled with blood. It was a close call, but my amazing vet worked their magic and saved me!

Now, I can’t go back to the street, so I'm staying here at the shelter. I’m about 6 years old and weigh 12–14 kg, just the right size for cuddles (if I do say so myself!). ❤️

I’m also very friendly and gentle! I get along well with cats and dogs of all sizes, so I’d fit right into your furry family if you already have one.

Would you like to be the one to give me the life I’ve always wished for? 🥰

💔 Heartbreaking news 💔 Someone abandoned 8 puppies near our shelter, and we really need your help. Of course, we fed them straight away and took them to the vet. Some of them already have names, but they’re still waiting for a family to call their own. Every £ helps us care for them and find them loving homes. Thank you so much!

Hi there, I’m Millie! 🐾🥰

I’ve been hanging out here since mid-November 2022, and let me tell you—I’m ready to find my forever home! I’m the cuddly, people-loving, tail-wagging kind of gal who just can’t wait to shower someone with all my love. ❤️

I’m well-behaved, gentle, and I get along with dogs of all sizes. I’m playful when it’s time to play, but I’m also all about the snuggles when it’s time to relax.

I was born around the beginning of September 2021, and I weigh around 15kg. I’m just waiting for that special someone to find me. Could it be you? 💕

Hi there, I’m Jasmine! 🐾🥰

I may be a big girl now, but I was once found on the main road, scared and alone as just a little puppy, until some kind volunteers rescued me. My sister was luckier and already found her forever home—but I’m still here, waiting for my chance to be part of a family.

I was born in March 2023, and though I started out at just 3.3 kg, I’m now a proud 40 kg Greek Shepherd mix! I’m healthy, playful, and have grown into a super-friendly big girl. I get along with all my shelter buddies and would love a human or two who can show me what it means to be loved and to belong. ❤️

I’m dreaming of a loving home with kind, patient people who will introduce me to the big, beautiful world out there. I want to learn, cuddle, and give you all the loyalty I have. Could that be with you?

If you think you could give this gentle, playful girl a chance, please reach out. I’ll be here, paws crossed, hoping my forever family finds me soon! 🥰

Hi there, I'm Yoda 🐾🥰

Not long ago, my 6 adorable siblings and I were rescued by some amazing paw angels! We were born around October 26th, 2023, and since our sweet mum is medium-sized, I’m a medium-sized guy too, weighing about 15 kg.

I must say, I’m quite the handsome little fellow! I’m doing well here at the shelter, making friends with other dogs and loving all the playtime. But I’m really waiting to find my human, that special someone to call my own. ❤️

Feeling the love? If your heart’s already melting, reach out!

Hi there, it’s me, Isabella... 🐾🥰

I was just a tiny baby, abandoned in an olive grove, left to face the world alone. But my foster mom, Alma, took me in with so much love. She’s been there through it all, and I’ve grown up with her warmth and the best brother ever, Felix.

They say I was born around May 8, 2024, and I’ll be about 20 kg when I’m all grown up. I’ve become a curious, playful, and loving little girl. I just want a family to share my cuddles with, to give all this love to, and a cozy spot to call my forever home. My foster mom and brother have already found their people, and while I’m so happy for them, it also makes me wonder... is there someone out there for me, too?🥺💔

I promise I’ll fill your life with so many happy moments if you give me a chance. Could you be my person? ❤️

Love,
Isabella

Hi there, I'm Lewis! 🐾🥰

I was found on the streets with my brother, but now I’m safe thanks to some amazing volunteers! I’m a curious little guy who loves exploring, and I always pay attention to what’s happening around me. ❤️

I’m super playful, love a good cuddle, and have a lot of love to give. I was born in January 2024, and I’ll grow up to be around 10kg – just the right size for plenty of snuggles!

Could you be my forever family?🐾💕

Hi, I’m Hera! 🐾🥰

I used to have a home, but my owner had to make the tough choice to give me up because the people he rents from no longer allow animals. He was heartbroken to say goodbye, and now I’m here, hoping to find my forever family.

I was born on 4.8.2019, so I’m in my prime years! I’m a friendly, loyal, and playful German Shepherd who loves being around people, other dogs, and even kids! I’ve also been neutered, so I’m all ready for my new home.❤️

Could you be the one to welcome me into your life? If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion, please get in touch. My dream is to curl up in a cozy basket, surrounded by a family that loves me. Will you make that dream come true?

With hopeful paws,
Hera 🐶💕

🐾 Hi, I’m Celia! 🐾

I was born in 2015, and I’m a little lady weighing around 5-7 kg. My story began on the streets, where I was found with my mum.

We’ve spent so much time together here at the shelter, and I love her dearly. I’m a bit cautious with new faces, but once I feel safe, I’ll gladly cuddle up by your side.❤️

My mum is getting older now, and I know I’ll feel lost without her. I dream of finding a kind human who’ll help me see the world outside this shelter and give me a home filled with love and patience. Will you be the one to show me a new life?

Love,
Celia 🐾❤️

Hi there! I’m Chloe! 🐾🥰

I remember being all alone on the street, scared and unsure of people. But now, living at the shelter, I’ve learned to trust again. 😊

I was born in January 2021, so I’m still a playful, cuddly young lady! I’m a medium-sized dog, weighing between 16 and 20 kg—just the right size for snuggles! I’m super loyal, smart, and curious—always ready to learn new things and keep myself busy! I walk nicely on a lead and get along great with other dogs, too.

I’m really hoping to make someone’s life happier. Could you be the human I’ve been waiting for?❤️

Hi there, I'm Benji! 🐾🥰

Life was rough for me as a puppy – I was out on the streets, covered in ticks and fleas. But then some kind people found me and brought me here to the rescue, where I've been ever since.

I'm now just over a year old and a little guy at around 10kg. I'm pretty laid-back, love a good cuddle, and there's nothing better than chilling out in the sun.

People are my favorite, so I'm still wondering why my human hasn't come to take me home yet. Maybe that could be you?❤️

Hi, I’m Dean! 🐾🥰

❗️If you decide to adopt me, here’s a heads-up: people will probably stop you on the street to ask what breed I am—because, well, look at me! ❗️

I’m just over a year old and grew up here at the shelter. I’m a calm, friendly guy who gets along with other dogs, big and small, and I’m gentle with puppies too.

I can be a little shy around new people, but with a bit of time, I’ll warm up, especially if you scratch me behind the ear.

I’m easy to please—I’ll be happy joining you for long walks, but I can also be your cozy Netflix buddy if that’s more your style.

I know my human is out there somewhere, just waiting for me. Could it be you? ❤️

Hi, I’m Ela! 🐾🥰

I was found near the shelter in Pyrgos and have been here ever since. I love playing with the other dogs and getting lots of cuddles. Born in February 2022, I’m still young, and at around 20kg, I’m just the right size for snuggles!

I’m friendly, loving, and always eager to learn new things. I might not be a puppy anymore, but I’ve got so much love to give. I’m really hoping to find a forever family where I can finally settle into my own cozy basket.

If you think we’d be a perfect match and you’ve got room in your heart for me, please get in touch! I can’t wait to meet you and start a new, happy chapter together! ❤️
