Apricot (Passed away)

Update 7.10.2023:

Sadly she passed away on 6.10.2023.

Her story:

Apricot is an older, light brown short-haired dog with a gentle disposition. Despite her age, she is still a playful and loving companion, however, she does require patience and understanding as she has been diagnosed with Leishmania, a parasitic infection that can affect a dog’s immune system and cause fatigue, weight loss, and skin issues.

Due to her condition, she requires a secure garden with little stress and owners who are not demanding. With proper care and treatment, Apricot can continue to live a happy and healthy life.

She is the sister to Limona and Kiwi and was born in June of 2014. Though she can be shy at first, with time and patience, she will warm up and become a loyal and cherished member of the family.

Gender: Female

Birthday: June 2014

Breed: Mix

Castrated: Yes

Color: Cream

Size: Medium

Description: Sister to Limona and Kiwi.

She is Leishmania positive. You can find more information here. Please, give our leishmania dogs a chance!

We adopted a dog when we visited Crete this year. The shelter is clean and the dogs have enough space. It's a non profit rescue organisation so they're thankful for every donation (money, dogfood, paying vet bills/medication...) or helping hands. The employees/volunteers love the dogs and take care very well. They do everything for them. Amazing and heartmelting work - everyday.They also helped us with all the documents, check-ups, vaccinations, organising the flight back home etc. Would always recommend this shelter if you want to adopt a dog.

Disappointed, we applied for help for an animal and were just ignored.

Friendly helpful staff and so many lovely dogs looking for new homes. We were greeted by some of the curious, calm girls of various ages out in the huge central yard getting their exercise. My kids were happily petting them and getting their toes kicked. Lots of opportunies for volunteering if you can't adopt a dog.

This shelter will always have a special place in my heart. We adopted our dog Moon from there in 2020, and he has been the greatest gift in our lives. Most loving dog on earth. He came to Germany from the shelter, and liz was super communicative, answering all of our questions up until the day we picked him up at the airport. Thank you to everyone at this shelter for all of your hard work. We will absolutely adopt another dog from here ❤️ 💙

My wife and I visited the shelter since we own a stray dog from Crete. The people there are doing a wonderful job with very limited ressources. The shelter is in a good stage and we were glad they showed and explained us their work. We were positively surprised how good the dogs look. This is the result of to the great work and all the donations. Thank you!
