World Homeless Dog Day

[account_disabled]

World Homeless Dog Day is celebrated every year on the third Saturday of August. A celebration that seeks to promote foster projects and ensure that all abandoned dogs find a family. According to data from the Study on Abandonment and Adoption of Pets in 2020, last year Spain's shelters took in 162,000 dogs . Of these, around 50% were adopted, a sign of hope, given that in the context of the pandemic the number of adoptions increased. Despite this, the numbers of homeless dogs are worrying. From the Royal Canine Society of Spain, they emphasize that in our country a dog is abandoned every five minutes . This places us at the head of Europe in pet abandonment. The reasons behind this data include, among other causes, unwanted litters, end of the hunting season, problematic behavior of the animal, economic factors, loss of interest in the animal and changes of address. Commitment to Animal Protectors At Disane we collaborate with several Animal Protection Associations, to help them maintain and properly care for animals that have been abandoned by their owners.
