Supporting Dogs in Georgia When They Need It Most

Today, Sergej, one of our incredible community volunteers, spent the day feeding homeless dogs near the village of Supsa on the Black Sea.

We are doubling down on our efforts in Georgia by supporting local rescuers with food and funding spay and neuter surgeries to prevent even more dogs from being born into life on the streets. These efforts are especially important right now, as resources are limited and the need keeps growing.

Every meal, every medical procedure, and every bit of support make life a little easier for these dogs.

A New Beginning For Emily

Every rescue counts. Sometimes it’s a big operation; other times it’s a single dog, like Emily who desperately needed our help. 

We don’t know how or why Emily ended up on the side of the road. She was wearing a collar, a sign that someone once cared for her, but now she was painfully skinny, and limping on her hind leg. When Sergey from our Georgia team sent us her photo, we knew she needed us. Thanks to the amazing support of the Sochi Dogs community we could say yes! 

Emily spent time at the vet, slowly regaining her strength, and just a few days ago she had surgery to help her leg. Along the way, she made lots of friends, so much so that the staff even offered to help us find her a forever home! We can’t wait to see what this Spring will bring for her.

Partnering with Communities to Help Homeless Dogs in Georgia

One thing that sets Sochi Dogs apart is that we partner together with local communities in under-resourced areas to help folks caring for homeless animals who otherwise are not able to get assistance.

The latest from our Georgia Rescue: We’re working with Manana, a senior citizen living outside of Batumi, who is caring for 40 homeless dogs! By providing food, vaccinations, spay/neuter surgeries, and much-needed vet care, we’re able to support Manana’s efforts and help end the suffering of homeless animals.

A Big Day for Our Rescues in Chongari, Georgia

It was an important day for some of our newest rescues in Chongari, Georgia. Demo, Knopa, Laila, Fifa, and Tihoni all made a trip to the vet for essential care, including parasite testing and spay surgery.

For rescue dogs, these routine veterinary visits are a very big step. Before they can move on to the next chapter of their lives, they need the basic medical care that helps keep them healthy and safe.

We’re happy to share that everyone is recovering beautifully. After all they have been through, it is wonderful to see them resting, healing, and getting the care they deserve.

Demo, Knopa, Laila, Fifa, and Tihoni are all dreaming of forever humans of their own. Each one is now a little closer to that future thanks to the love and dedication of the local team caring for them in Georgia.

We are so grateful to everyone who makes this work possible. Your support helps dogs like these get the medical care they need and the chance to move forward toward safe, loving homes.
