Fiona Sawney runs Friends of Dogs, Montenegro. We support her so that she can save the abandoned dogs of Montenegro. With NFA’s backing, Fiona and a group of local animal welfare activists have visited all 23 municipalities in Montenegro and documented the barriers they face when dealing with street dogs. They have also assessed the shelters against the legal standards, which are generally not well enforced. With good information, Friends of Dogs Montenegro will be able to highlight the problems and difficulties and lobby for the government to address them. Watch her testimonial to find out more about how she is working with Network for Animals to rescue defenseless dogs struggling to survive in Montenegro.

Thanks to your donations the donkeys at MARES will continue to receive the love and care they need.
