 Tara is now back up for adoption, it has taken time and lots of vets care but we have done it.

 She does however need a special home as she does have accidents now and then. much less than before and it really is now and again!


 If she has constant access to a garden even better!

 She will have to be given small biscuits ( as small as cat biscuits ) with tinned meat as she vomits on large biscuits.

 Tara almost died from being spayed and  after almost 4000 lira / £1500 of vet care she has gained weight, her coat looks fab, her once peeing of 86 pees on a 30 mins walk is now normal to 5-6 pees on a 30 minute walk.

 This is a very special lady indeed,  in need of a very special home.   Please open your hearts to this angel and she will love you forever. fantastic nature, just a lovely girl!

Dogs in the forest and on the streets






Apart from the many dogs that are being cared for in the TAG shelter, awaiting adoption, Karen and her team also go out every single day to feed up to 80 more dogs on the streets and in the forest.

As well as feeding them, they are gradually being neutered and spayed, to keep down the ever increasing dog population.

If you would like to donate towards the cost of feeding and neutering these dogs, please go to one of the donation links on the sidebar.

Any of these dogs could be available for adoption too, so please contact us if you are interested.

Thankyou.

Boston...Available for Adoption




Karen says:

Boston, is a big lovable boy around now 1.5yrs old. I found him in the village of Kizikli wandering around on the road looking for food at around 8-10 weeks old.

He is up to date with all his injections and has been castrated. He is a great dog and is one of my free dogs living outside. Well in fact he jumps the fence and comes and goes as he wishes.  He has a few food issues but they are getting better.

None of my dogs have a problem with Boston,  but he would suit a home with a female better than a male as he is a ladies man!   A garden  with a high fence would be essential to keep him safe.

He is a shepherd mix and a large breed dog so will need plenty of excerise.  He has protected me many times and would do so for anyone he is close too. He would let nothing happen to me ever and so his new owner can expect a terrific dog that would be with them all his life and protect them.  I adore him and anyone who gets him will be super lucky.

If Boston is the dog for you, then please get in touch.

Sponsorship


The majority of dogs in the TAG shelter are available for adoption.  However, it takes a lot of organisation, time and money to arrange forever homes.

In the meantime, the dogs have to be fed, so we need sponsors.

It costs £5 per month to sponsor one of our dogs and many have no sponsors at all..

To sponsor one please contact us via the Turkish Animal Group (Dog Adoptables) page on Facebook and the payment can either be done via our UK bank by standing order monthly or via paypal monthly, however you wish.

These dogs are all at our shelter and safe but it costs a massive amount to feed them all monthly..

So we are looking to get 5-6 sponsors per dog and this will cover their monthly food bill.
Your name will be added to their picture on Facebook as one of their sponsors and monthly you will receive our newsletter and update on your sponsored dog.


Here are just a few of our dogs who need sponsors.  Have a look at the link to the Facebook page above, to see more.






 Thank you!

Lotty...available for adoption...further update

Following my previous posts about Lotty, I am delighted to report that she is recovering very well.

Lotty was found not far from the Shelter, her leg had been hit by a car and she was bleeding and had an open wound.

 Karen got her to the vets and she was riddled with worms and her leg needed treatment, her hip is also not in the line with the other, the front leg is twisted and this has caused  a permanent limp.

However this does not stop Lotty and she loves to play and run.  If she knocks her leg then it does hurt her but Karen moves things out her way. She is full of fun and loves life now and Karen says she has never ever seen a dog so happy to be rescued.

She is around 6 months old and has since been spayed.  A medium sized, fantastic little dog.

We are hoping to get Lotty to the UK in the next few months.  She will continue to be fostered by Karen at her home until then to make sure her injured leg completely heals.

If you are interested in adopting Lotty and you live in the UK, please get in touch.

Lotty with one of Karen's dogs, Aydin.

Miley - Available for adoption or fostering

Meet Miley.



She is a Husky mix who lived on the street in Yeslikent.    Miley has been fed by us since around 5 months old and we went every night to feed her on the streets.

We also had her spayed and then the complaints started,  so one night as usual we went to feed her and she was missing.  This was very  unlike Miley.   Karen asked around and was told that she had been taken to the  council pound in Didim. 

The very next day we got her straight out of there and she is now in private boarding as there is no room at the shelter.   

She is around 10 months old now and  she is the most placid dog ever.   Beautiful sky blue eyes; she has the sweetest nature and is a super softy.   

We can help fundraise to get her to the UK or if you can foster in the UK please contact us.  Thank you
