Skiathos 370 02, Greece In the midst of the lush hills on the island of Skiathos a group of volunteers have created a haven for stray dogs that are looking for their forever homes.
To give the dogs a safe place and a location, that would provide both cool winds during hot summer days, privacy and calmness in the evenings. The local monastery (Evangelistria), has offered a piece of land out of town the Islands Landfill site.

Such a lovely idea for any animal lovers. I was a little uncertain about them letting strangers take dogs out but the owners and volunteers show a lot of care for the dogs and match you with a dog to suit your confidence and strength. I had a lovely walk with Ronnie with some beautiful views. You can get there by bus which I didn’t realise until I got there and there are more walking routes if it’s too hot to take the dogs far

Although it says hike it is about 30 minute walk. Well worth doing, Sarah and team are doing an amazing job.
