Abandoned animals desperately need help!

Will you be there for animals that the world has left behind?

A landfill on the outskirts of Podujeva, Kosovo. Mountains of rubbish as far as the eye can see.

This is home for over a hundred of dogs: some dumped here, others born into it, never knowing kindness or care.

FOUR PAWS is working to ensure these animals are no longer overlooked.

Can forgotten animals count on your compassion?

Since 2023, FOUR PAWS has been actively working in Kosovo, collaborating with national and local authorities, building strong partnerships with local NGOs, and carrying out CNVR (Catch, Neuter, Vaccinate, Return) work on the ground. These efforts are already delivering positive results, demonstrating that humane and effective dog population management is possible.

The work in Podujeva is a vital part of this long-term approach. Street dog surveys conducted between June 2024 and May 2025 estimated that 2,995 dogs are living on the streets there. By providing relief to the dogs at the landfill, alongside our ongoing street work, we aim to stabilise the local dog population, reduce suffering, and create lasting change.

With gift aid, your gift of £1 could be worth £1.25 at no extra cost to you.

I understand you will reclaim the tax I've paid on this donation, any I've made in the past four years and any I may make in the future.

To qualify for Gift Aid, I must pay as much UK income and/or captial gains tax as FOUR PAWS UK and the other organisaitons I support claims on my behalf in each tax year.

This is currently 25p on every £1 that I donate. If I pay less tax, I'm responsible for paying the difference. Gift Aid will help fund FOUR PAWS' general work. I can cancel this declaration at any time.
