A number of the videos we have posted recently are of dogs that have lived at the centre for many years. The main reason for this is very simple – there are too many stray dogs and unwanted puppies in North Cyprus and not enough forever homes to go round. However, that does not mean that a dog who has spent most of it’s life at the rescue centre is institutionalised and won’t settle into a home. We find that most dogs that are homed settle really well, it’s almost like they are grateful to finally have a home of their own! Here’s Elaine our centre supervisor with Evie, who has been at the centre for 12 years but who spends many an evening relaxing by the fire. Please listen to what she has to say about homing a long-term centre resident, the video cuts off a bit at the end but what Elaine was going to say was that she is always on the end of a phone to help new owners if they have any concerns about their newly rescued four-legged friend. So don’t be put off about homing one of our beautiful dogs, it could be the best decision you have ever made!

It’s puppy time! Meet Milo, Milly & Macey who were dumped at the centre a few weeks ago. As you can see, they are all very lively and just love to play. We’re not sure what Milo thinks of his rather ill-fitting bow tie, but we’re sure he didn’t keep it on for long!! They have had their first vaccinations and as you can see, all 3 are in the peak of health! If you are interested in offering one of them a home, then please e-mail our office – kartrnc@gmail.com – and they can arrange for you to meet them. Please share for Milo, Milly & Macey as we really don’t want them to spend their lives at the centre, despite the excellent care they get from the centre staff and volunteers.

Meet Ivy. She was found in the mountains back in December, we can only assume she was unwanted, so dumped. Ivy is about 1.5 years old, a lively girl and as you can see, she has a fine set of floppy ears! She would love a garden to run around in and explore to her heart’s content. All our centre dogs are vaccinated, microchipped and neutered (when they are old enough) If you would like to give Ivy a home, please contact us and we will arrange for you to meet her once the centre is open again. Or you can sponsor Ivy for £10 per month – our sponsorship scheme provides us with a regular income – even more important to us whilst our shops are closed due to lockdown. Please share for Ivy and let’s find her a forever home!

It’s puppy time! Don’t we all just love a cute puppy and here’s 3 just waiting for their forever homes. They are now about 3.5 months old, vaccinated and ready to go! As you can see they love to run around and play, they are having so much fun. What they would like even more is a garden so they can charge around and work off some of that excess energy!! Once the centre opens again, please come and see them – we really don’t want them to spend their whole lives in a rescue centre, despite how much we love them.
