During his recent visit to Turkey, our managing director, Mirko Oesterhaus, saw for himself the impact of our donations and the well-being of the animals at the Serik Patili Dünya shelter.
The animals clearly feel right at home in their spacious and clean enclosures. They are well-fed, receive veterinary care, and are lovingly cared for by the volunteers on site.
Thanks to this care, all the animals are exceptionally peaceful, regardless of their breed. This colorful bunch includes both purebred dogs and mixed-breed strays. You won’t find any distressed or frightened animals here.
The Serik Patili Dünya animal shelter in the Turkish town of Serik is funded entirely by donations and run by volunteers. Its goal is to help as many stray dogs as possible and find them new homes.
It is particularly important to the animal lovers that the dogs receive top-notch veterinary care, good food, and loving attention, and that they never feel unwanted.There are currently about 100 animals at the spacious facility, where the dogs are largely free to roam.
We—Consulting4IT—have been providing financial support to the shelter for some time now through the dedicated animal rights activist Barbara Schellenberg as part of a comprehensive sponsorship program. We also hope to use our articles and posts to raise awareness about these suffering animals and, in this way, find sponsors or even new dog owners.
Because, no matter how well they’re doing there, Serik Patili Dünya is meant to be just a temporary stop for the dogs. Of course, these furry friends are looking for a new home with a loving animal lover—so they can finally settle down and enjoy life to the fullest.
We ask ourselves: Why buy expensive purebreds and contribute to animal suffering when there are so many loyal dogs just waiting to finally find a real home? Maybe with you? As mentioned earlier, simple sponsorships are also available.
If you are interested in sponsoring or adopting, please contact Ms. Schellenberg directly at[email protected].
We continue to donate—true to the motto: Our help goes to—not past—the dogs.
