60 more bags of trash were collected my this weekends\u2019 Saturday cleaning brigade. The former wretched meadows at the front of the shelter are starting to look civilized and welcoming!<\/p>\n

The sun smiled at the ninja-volunteers and shone on them whilst they battled with an astonishing amount of wrappings, glass and all sorts of unimaginable trash \u2013 sunken into the ground, twisted about the thorns, hanging, dragging, flying about\u2026<\/p>\n

\"1474843_10203461328479639_1691164405_n\"<\/a> \"10013054_10203461325239558_1964838379_n\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This time the group was even bigger. The people needed a few hours to be able to scratch out an unexplained combination of dirt and trash just at the front doors. And the amount of the glass collected is astounding \u2013 we hadn\u2019t imagined it is so badly \u201cmined\u201d for walkers about the Farm.<\/p>\n

The battle ended with a blowing success for the volunteers and the dung-hill was moved from the meadows to bags of ECOPACK<\/a>, which are slowly taken into the city for recycling. It turned out that most people with cars in the shelter live in places where there is no recyclable collection of trash, so if you would bring a couple of bags with you back to the city \u2013 we\u2019d be obliged.<\/p>\n

To the organizer \u2013 Theresa and all the enthusiasts and volunteers who came to the call on this nice day off \u2013 our full-hearted thanks and appreciation! It\u2019s a whole other story to meet the Spring\u2019s light surrounded by soft grass that is no longer disgusting, nor dangerous to walk on \u2013 both for humans and dogs.<\/p>\n

\"10013867_10203461325159556_1974325653_n\"<\/a>\u00a0\"1474764_10203461319039403_2054640690_n\"<\/a>

Meanwhile art the Farm we have finally began the true renovations \u2013 the construction plans are finished, the permits are at hand, we know where and at what degree to place our pipes and cesspit, we chose the company who will do the work, the materials too (what a floor we will have!), the iron-workers are making the complicated doggie-doors and forms of the cages, a half-finished WC\/bath is the first thing to look somewhat finished, and all in all \u2013 the real work has begun. Reconstructions, as you know, will be done in stages, starting with the dog-building where we want to place our dogs comfortably, whilst we look for financing for the clinic (it will cost a lot if we are to have the highest category).<\/p>\n

\"1\"<\/a> \"2\"<\/a> \"3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Although we cannot say our work is one of the easiest, we are honestly shocked by how difficult it was to even start to turn the Farm into a shelter. It is surprising anything actually manages to function in this country with the insane bureaucratic rules we have set up for ourselves. Thank god for our magic-man Svetlio who carries most of the weight on his back, the rest (the women) are in shock and astonishment. We hope to be able to get back to the work we do best \u2013 helping dogs in distress \u2013 sooner, it\u2019s only been 2 months of reconstruction details and we already feel like 2 years have passed\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
