The project Thank DOG e. V.

And people do take care - but for their efforts to be most effective, their help needs to be coordinated
and organised. First steps in achieving this have already been taken, thus establishing a certain
measure of control over the local street dogs’ situation, and even already finding new homes for some
of them. To help the dogs in the long term and realise our plans, however, a permanent location is
needed. There, the THANK DOG paradise shall be built, safely enclosed, and encompassing cosy homes
for dogs and their human caretakers alike, a quarantine area for newcomers, individual areas for
elderly or weak dogs, indoor and outdoor training grounds, a dog swimming pool, a veterinary clinic
for emergencies including ambulance vehicles specifically modified to serve their purpose of tending
to the street dogs, and of course a spacious park for dogs and humans to roam around in, enjoying the
beautiful scenery that is so typical of Akyaka with its pine trees, olive orchards and many, many flowers.
The park will also encompass an area where dogs can learn to interact and live with other animals such
as lamas, chicken, and goats, thus preparing them for encounters with different species.
