Programa detallado

Welcome to our animal rescue shelter in the beautiful coastal city of Vlorë!

We care for 85 rescued dogs and 2 cats who come from the streets, abusive situations, or abandonment. Our mission is to give them safety, love, and a second chance at life.

We are looking for kind-hearted, responsible, and motivated volunteers who want to make a real impact while living close to the sea and enjoying Albanian hospitality.

Once a week we prepare a shared community dinner together — a great moment for connection, fun, and cultural exchange.
