Savethedogsbih is a non-profit organization in Bosnia. We rescue dogs that have been abandoned, abused and chained up. For over 6 years, the founder Bruno Jelovic and his team have been caring for over 1000 dogs. Our dogs are not kept in kennels, but live on our ranches where they can just be dogs. We are committed to growing and plan to build more ranches to accommodate more dogs.

Animal welfare goes beyond national borders. Every animal deserves a chance at a dignified life. The association operates a shelter in Tunari, Romania. A maximum of 140 dogs can currently be taken in and cared for there. We take care of dogs that have had an accident or are in need, and we constantly rescue animals from the so-called killing-shelters. In addition, we support and organize castration campaigns and maintain a Germany-wide network of around 100 foster homes.

As per Guinnes Book of World Rekords the Smeura is bearing the mournful title of being the biggest animal shelter of the world. Around 5400 dogs and 600 puppies need around 2.7 tonnes food per day. The staff members are doing an inconceivable job - organizationally, physically and emotionally. Driving around with a castration van and pushing the clearing up of the locals. Every euro is needed. There are some pictures in the project description.

Tierschutz ist grenzenlos! pro-canalba e.V. - ein gemeinnütziger, deutscher TSV. Der Name kommt aus dem Italienischen: cane = Hund und alba = Sonnenaufgang. Wir unterstützen ausschließlich Projekte in Europa, die nachhaltig die Lebensbedingungen der Tiere vor Ort verbessern. Wir helfen ausgewählten Tierheime, hauptsächlich unserem ´sicheren Hafen´, und suchen ein gutes Zuhause für die Hunde, die im Ursprungsland keine Chance auf eine Familie und würdige Lebensumstände bekommen.
