ANIMAL RESCUE SOFIA
About Us
The beginning
We created Animal Rescue Sofia out of love for animals and have been working for them since 2010. During this time, thousands of animals have passed through our hands and hearts – we changed destinies, we saved lives.
Every day we lend a hand to paws and hooves, every day we make the world at least a little better.

„The Farm”
The Farm is our shelter for stray animals. Here we treat, socialize, get to know and find the best home for each dog.
We see The Farm as a bridge over which the sick, the scared and the unwanted can cross, so that healthy, social and loved pets can cross at the end.
Our main goal is to find the right person for each dog and the right dog for each person. That is why our adoption procedure includes a lot of conversations and getting to know the chosen dog or kitten in advance.
We are happy that we have already found the right people for over 10,000 formerly stray animals!
„Francisca“ Clinic
Located on the territory of the shelter, “Francisca” is often the only salvation for injured and sick stray dogs and cats.
Every day, our experienced doctors meet emergency cases from all over Bulgaria – poisoned, run over, shot – thousands of patients get a chance at life here.
We also work hard to reduce suffering on the streets and through prevention, and the castrations of dogs and cats at the clinic are so numerous that we have long stopped counting them.
The “Francisca” clinic also works with pets.
„The Ranch”
The Ranch is a dream come true – the place where abused, sick and old horses and farm animals find their freedom, home and well-deserved rest.
At the Ranch, located at the foot of the Stara Planina Mountains, live our horses, goats, donkeys and even a buffalo and a cow.
The difficult past is behind them and at the Ranch they are finally home!
