Breed rescue - Szent Ferenc Állatotthon Alapítvány - Ócsa

Szent Ferenc Animal Home. We rescue, foster and rehome stray dogs and we have a program specialising in greyhound rescue.

Our home has been in operation since 1995 with the help of volunteers. We foster primarily abandoned or stray dogs. After having spent time in quarantine, our dogs are spayed or neutered before starting the process of finding them permanent homes. We have been firmly advocating animal-rights ever since our foundation, we do not euthanize any animals, and we intend to live up to our principles in the future.

Our main activities are:

• For stray dogs, we try to find their current owners and to return them to their homes
• For abandoned dogs we seek foster/forever homes
• We aim to cooperate with local authorities in order to carry out our work efficiently
• We organize educational programs for schools and other institutions
• We raise awareness about environmental and animal protection
• We specialize in the rescue and receive greyhounds, whippets and the mixes of these breeds from all over the country (The Hungarian Greyhound Rescue Program)
• We rescue animals from disaster-stricken areas
• We offer medical care for dogs injured in accidents
