I loved my experience at the Dogshelter! Working with the dog was lots of fun. They are all so sweet! The task were manageable but it took me a while to get the hang of everything I still really enjoyed it! Sarah is really clear about what she wants which is great but can be a bit „scary“ in the beginning. But it just showed how much she cares for the project. I would recommend everyone to volunteer at BSD. Thank you so much for the experience ❤️

Thanks so much Matilda, am so pleased you value your experience with the dogs (they're amazing, who wouldn't?! 😉).
It may have taken you a while but you never gave up, which is super important thanks again for all the time and love you gave to the dogs !

I had a nice time at the dog shelter, looking after the yard the project and fostering an energetic dog in the volunteer apartment, whilst I was nervous at first due to the large size of the project, they truly are sweet gentle giants and just want love and fuss. The shelter is doing something great for the project: giving them enrichment and walks; I enjoyed grooming the project especially. the tasks were not difficult but there is a routine to get to know. I did feel at times more efforts could be made the volunteers feel more welcome. But overall, Sarah is a lovely host and I will cherish this experience!

I have an outstanding experience. It is so nice to see how each one of the dogs inside and out of the shelter is so well treated and in such a special way. I am glad for how much I could learn about dogs behaviour and training, which I am thankful for. The tasks are not too demanding, but there are a lot of details about the way they should be done - which there is always a reason behind that. I appreciate our weekly check-ins, as they helped our experience and progress proceed smoothly. I will miss Tammy and the other dogs so much! Thank you Sarah and team for the opportunity!!

I just spent a month in Bansko with three wonderful the project. Even though they were all different we had lots of fun together and it was wonderful experience. Sarah and her staff are doing incredible work with all these abandoned the project and helping them until they can find a loving home to keep them forever. I highly recommend this experience if you love the project and also I learned a great deal about them. Sarah has built a fantastic refuge not only for the project under her care but for ones that are still roaming the streets as she has set up feeding and watering places for them.

Mi experiencia como voluntario en el refugio fue increíble, aunque tuve que irme antes por motivos personales. El refugio está muy bien organizado, y los animales reciben un excelente cuidado. Los perros son cariñosos y adorables, y los dos gatos añaden un toque de serenidad. Sarah, la coordinadora, es una persona muy amable y siempre estuvo pendiente de lo que necesitaba, asegurando que mi experiencia fuera la mejor posible. Recomiendo este refugio a cualquiera que desee vivir una experiencia significativa ayudando a animales.

Volunteering at the project was a truly amazing experience that I would recommend if you're an animal lover, wanna make a real impact in the world and are up for learning some new things!! Bansko is a beautiful town with lots of events/things to do and stunning nature, you form personal relationships with ever dog which is so rewarding and its inspiring to see how much Sarah and the other volunteers care about the project and really try to care for ever single dog in Bansko. There's definitely lots to do and at times it can seem a bit overwhelming but hard work pays off!!

Thanks again for all your help Layla, it was great that you were so interested in the dogs we're helping around town as well as the ones you met in he shelter.
You did make change and should be proud of what you've achieved - I'm sure you'll go on to do so much more goodness out there in the world too.

I do appreciate the feedback - always be honest with your hosts, this is a two way street and how we all grow! ❤️

This was my first volunteer experience.I stayed here for a month and loved my time here! There's a morning shift or a afternoon shift each for 4 hours so you still get lots of time to explore Bansko and working with the project is a very enjoyable experience 🐶 it was truly a rewarding time and I would recommend it to other people looking to volunteer here 😁

This was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't have asked for a better one! I felt very welcome and the people were lovely. the project are absolutely adorable and I will miss them a lot. The tasks were straight forward and communicated very clearly, so you always knew what to do and if not you were encouraged to ask any questions you had. Sarah was a great host, direct and open with a big passion for the project. Shoutout to the BSD-Team for giving the project a home and caring for them. I would recommend this place for anyone who's trying to make a difference. Thank you for this experience!

I had an awesome time volunteering at the project! The shelter is organised and full of beautiful, fun loving, fluffy the project that I couldn't stop patting. Big shoutout to Sarah, Chris and Nik for doing such an amazing job at the shelter and for looking after so many stray the project. Though I didn't get to stay with anyone else in the apartment I am grateful to have had the company of a temporary resident doggie. I will absolutely be coming back to spend more time in Bansko and look after the beautiful doggies. Thank you BSD team 🐶

Absolutely amazing, you can feel the care and love put into it, Sarah is fantastic, very understanding and real. All the local volunteers are chill, going into it with the expectation of learning and working hard and it is so so much fun! Sometimes cold and wet - but great fun! Hope to revisit!
