The reason you do not see sick, injured and stray dogs and cats in Eressos, as you do in other places in Greece, is because of the many organisations working to feed, heal, house and rehome them.
GaGa Animal Care is our dog haven – run by Gerbien Fricke and a team of brilliant volunteers.
We offer you the opportunity to voyage deep into beautiful campos to meet our dogs, have puppy photo opportunities, maybe fall in love, and find out how you can help.
The Gaga Animal Care Open Day will take place on Sunday 17th September, and there are two ways to join:
- Puppy Safari – There will be a minibus (8-seater) that takes off from the main parking by Doukakis supermarket at 10.00am, 12.30pm, 16.00pm, and 18.30pm. Sign-up for the minibus must be done no later than 2pm on 15th September. First come – first serve!
- Sponsored Walk: There will also be a walk that sets off from outside the Sappho Travel Agency at 10.00am. Suitable footwear is required for the walk, and we ask that you take plenty of water with you. Distance to the Gaga land is approximately 3km, one way.
Donations to Gaga Animal Care will be requested, a minimum of €10 for the Puppy Safari return trip with minibus, and €5 if you decide to join the Sponsored Walk (it costs us €12 to feed one adult dog for a month, so we are immensely grateful for your generosity!).
