FREE RESCUE

Our Priorities for 2025

In 2025, we are committed to rescuing and neutering over 300 stray dogs struggling to survive on the streets, in landfills, and in abandoned places.

We have the expertise, the passion, and a clear road map. Through our trap-neuter-vaccinate-adopt program (or return if adoption isn’t possible), we are breaking the cycle of suffering by preventing the birth of new stray puppies and putting an end to their misery.

We are saving lives

This is what it's all about, right? Second chances for our most faithful companions.

Dogs and cats at our sanctuary and clinic receive the love, care, and medical treatment they need—whether it’s lifesaving surgery or long-term care—to heal and find a forever home. At FreeRescue, we believe every companion animal deserves a loving family, which is why we are committed to launching adoption programs in every country across Europe, creating more opportunities for them to find homes abroad.

Pet Adoption

We have rescued 248 stray dogs in 2024, 62 of them have not been adopted and were returned simply because they weren't chosen. There’s no need to buy from a breeder or pet store. Free Rescue is committed to removing the barriers to adoption for people who want to provide a loving home for pets in need and ensuring that the entire process is positive and accessible for everyone.

Spay/neuter Program

In 2024, we successfully spayed/neutered 248 stray dogs, and our goal for the new year is to increase that number to over 300. As a country with so many homeless animals living in misery, this program is crucial if we want to make a real change

Spaying and neutering slow population growth and help control the population of stray animals. Without these programs, homeless animals are often left to suffer, facing neglect, disease, and early death. Sterilization is key to managing free-roaming dogs and cats and preventing health issues.

When combined with vaccinations, spaying and neutering offer a way to reduce the number of street animals and improve the health of those that remain. By sterilizing community dogs and returning them (if not adopted) to their areas, we allow their population to naturally decrease over time, while leaving the most socialized dogs in place.

Sterilized dogs, marked with an ear notch or other signs, are viewed more positively by the public, improving human-animal interactions.

Sterilizing pets also prevents the problem of more homeless or abandoned dogs and cats, helping reduce overall suffering.
