Play Pen
Happy dogs!
During a few weeks this fall we were able to use one of our pens as a "Play Pen".
All the dogs who used to live in this pen had been re-homed.
We got to give this wonderful space to some of our larger dogs that live in
individual pens.
Every dog got a few hours per day playing and running around in the sun!

Right now we have placed new dogs in this pen but hope to be able to create a "Play Pen" very soon in a different location at the shelter.
Because every dog deserves to be loved!
You’ll find our dog shelter in the pine-covered hills on the island of Skiathos, with stunning views of the azure Aegean and nearby mainland.
Enjoying cool breezes in the hot summer and
tranquility at night, the land kindly donated by the Evangelistria Monastery provides a safe haven for dogs looking for their forever homes.
Visitors to the island can walk, cuddle and help care for our dogs as often as they like or are able to (during opening hours). And if you fall in love with a dog while you’re here, our team of volunteers will do everything possible to assist you in rehoming your new best friend!
Most of our dogs have been given to us by owners who are no longer able to look after them. Some are delivered to our 24/7 holding pen by good Samaritans, with anonymity assured. Some are born here.
​When dogs arrive, the first thing we do is check for a microchip or try to contact the owner by word-of-mouth, in an attempt to discover the dog’s backstory, which can be a great help with rehoming.
As always, anonymity is assured.​
