Sochi Dogs is a trailblazing nonprofit organization committed to rescuing stray dogs through education, adoption, and spay/neuter programs.
There is a lot going on in the world. It’s a scary unpredictable time, but dogs remind us to take things day by day and live in the present. All of the dogs at the Sochi Dogs have been through so much but regardless of their past they are enjoying every second of their new lives. Watching them always brings a smile to our faces, and we hope it does the same for you!
With a few large dogs going home, we were able to rescue this sweet girl, who we named Jane! Jane found her by the grocery store where Jane was trying to stay dry and begging for scraps. Jane knew right away that she needed to follow Masha and jumped right into her car. After a visit to the vet to be spayed and vaccinated, Jane is Now she is settling in at the shelter. By the look on her face we think she is pretty happy to be safe, warm, fed, and loved. But can imagine how happy she’ll be when she finds her forever home?!
Shelter Update: Sochi got a terrible spell of winter weather last week. The shelter was without power and running water for over a week. We had to buy bottled water for the dogs to drink and give them extra food to keep warm. Keeping kennels for 50+ dogs clean without running water was nearly impossible, but Masha out shelter caretake did everything she could, and even dressed some of the puppies in sweaters so they would not get cold. Today is the first day we have consistent power and water throughout the shelter. We are dealing with some residual damage but everything is getting back to normal.
Thank you so much to everyone who donated and sent their good wishes to get us through this tough time! We couldn’t do it without all of you!
URGENT: The shelter is without power and running water. The extreme cold has caused our water to be shutoff and we don’t know when it’ll be back on. Our shelter dogs got very thirsty and today we had to go out to get bottled water for them. To get through the cold spell we’ve been giving them extra food and we’re going through our supplies much faster than anticipated. Please donate to help us get through this tough time.
