We provide support and financial assistance to Greek shelters to prevent and relieve the suffering of abandoned and abused dogs. We also arrange adoptions giving shelter dogs the chance of a happy new life with families in the UK.

Story

We have an amazing 15 runners fundraising for Starlight Barking in the London Landmarks Half Marathon on Sunday 12th April. They have each pledged to raise £500 for Lemnos Dog Shelter in Greece.

This will support one of the long-term Ghost Dogs of the shelter with extensive blood tests, vaccinations, health checks and legal paperwork to enter the UK and begin a new life.

With your help we hope to help each runner double this so we can potentially help 30 dogs escape the hell-hole shelter where they have been incarcerated 24/7 in the most inhumane conditions imaginable.

With remaining funds we will continue to make the lives of these dumped dogs a little more bearable by providing veterinary care, medication and food supplements.

Even the smallest donation is so appreciated and will go a long way to help these poor abandoned dogs.

We also support UK shelters and their dogs for adoption are on our website: www.starlightbarking.co.uk but sadly in the UK many dog rescue charities will often turn down potential adopters because of their age!

At Starlight Barking we have now re-homed hundreds of dogs to wonderful people of a certain age who were unable to adopt in the UK but have provided the most loving homes for our dogs who previously had no hope.

Thank you for caring and please continue to support our mission.
