Demand That Santorini, Greece Island Government Not Shut Down The ONLY Animal Shelter On The Island!

Help us! The island's government are closing the SAWA animal shelter, and forcing the dogs onto the street! The president of Katerados has spent the last two years trying to sabotage the SAWA shelter and is now trying to force us to close. His dirty tactics have included bulldozing our road to prevent water and food from being supplied to the shelter, and has constantly threatened and bullied the shelter leader, Christina Kaloudi. Most recently, he has summoned SAWA to court, accusing us of being illegal. The trial date is Oct. 20th, and it remains to be seen how the court decides.

The mayor of the entire island of Santorini, Greece has now decided to close the shelter before the trial and to PUT ALL THE DOGS ON TRHE STREET. This is to ease their role in the trial-now they can simply say that the shelter is closed. This means certain death for the dogs. Most of the dogs are big puppies that grew up at the shelter, unable to fend for themselves. So, it is only a matter of time until they die on the streets as a result of car accidents, poisoning (a favorite act on the island-they think is being humane), or being shot by the locals-an ongoing problem. We also suspect that they intend to kill the dogs as soon as they are on the streets-and they don't care that 38 of these dogs are already adopted through animal welfare groups in Germany, Sweden, and Denmark. They are simply waiting for a flight to leave the island! 

Please help us as we fight to save the dogs! And, to keep open the only animal shelter on the island of Santorini, Greece. Go to our website to check on the status as everyday we are uncertain how long it will be before they take the dogs. www.sawasantorini.org
