#7 A Month at the Shelter

07.14 Emma & Matilde in Skiathos 0 Comments

As we wrote in our last post, enough money had been funded as well as raised by ourselves, and we went back to the Shelter. We were there for about a month (which of course was not enough and we miss it already) and once again we have returned home many irreplaceable memories richer and have again been blessed with a lot of new friends (of both the two- and four legged kind!).
Throughout the visit we had the pleasure of being foster mums to three lovely pups. We saw many dogs come and go, both old residents (like Sprocket Rocket who had been at the Shelter for 3 years!) as well as new ones. The weather was really hot but luckily it didn't prevent the hundreds of lovely tourists coming by every day donating both their time and money to the dogs. This time around we were not the only volunteers; the sweet Rosalie, who had arrived shortly after we left the last time, had been working a lot with Beano (a dog who has been at the Shelter for 3 years, who we've never been able to touch and socialize with), and after about 2-3 months of working with him she could finally take him out walking and since this he has just been improving every day and now even tourists can take him out walking! Instead of boring you with a novel about our adventures, we will stop now and share some pictures of the dogs.

Untill next time,

xx Matilde & Emma

Two of the Monkey pups, Badger (black and white, looking for a home) and Jude (Red, has a forever home in the UK), they were about 5 or 6 weeks when we visited in May and have really grown big since then! 


Lovely star with Matilde, might have an interested family. 



Happy little Leo, we saw him get dumped at the parking lot one day during tea time :-(
