WHO WILL BE THE NEXT
SUMMER POOCH?
Last year we held a summer
pooch competition for the
first time and since our
followers really seemed to
like it, we wanted to make it
a yearly event!
Finally a year has passed and
May has arrived - so it's time to
see who will win this year!
What does it mean? What is a
Summer Pooch competition? No
worries, we will tell you all
about it.
Summer Pooch competition is
held on Facebook and we invite
everyone who has rescued a dog
to participate!
From the beginning of May, we
will do a post about the
competition.
You can comment your dogs
most "summery" photo to the
post and the photo with most
likes will move to the finals!
For 3 week dogs can try to get
their place in the top 3 and
during the last week of May the
winner will be chosen!
So what does the winner get?
Why should I participate? First
of all, we love seeing happy
photos of rescue dogs and so
does everyone else! Secondly,
the winner will of course get
something out of it!

awesome is that?
Last years winner was the
lovely Bella! Her amazing
images melt the hearts of our
followers and her story
brought smiles to may faces.
We know this years winner will
do the same!

SO MANY LOSSES
Last month we lost some very
dear people and dogs. We lost
an amazing woman Samantha,
who had been a force to
reckon with in the animal
welfare world. She had
supported our work in so
many ways over the years and
will be sorely missed.
We also lost Verena, a dog that
we had done everything we
could for. In the end she died
from Leishmania at the arms
of her foster, who loved her
dearly.
PROGRESS WITH THE
MUNICIPALITY
We work tirelessly with the
local municipality to make
them part of the solution for
strays problem.
Now for the first time we held
an animal welfare weekend,
which was concentrating on
volunteers as well as on the
public. Vets, trainers and other
specialist were giving advice
and education while 150 free
microchips were given to
those who needed them.

The summer is approaching and with it
new and old friends come to visit us.
Since we are in shortage of volunteers
we are considering opening hours for
public, so we can make sure people will
have someone there to tell them about
our work!

THE ADVENTURES O
THE STORY
A "happily ever after"
story, told by Hugo's
new owner, Mira.
The first thing I noticed
was Hugo's noble way of
carrying himself and the
wisdom behind his eyes.
Then I read his story and I
could feel my heart sigh.
He charmed me from that
moment and I decided this
is it - he will be our dog.
But let's take a step back
first.
At the summer of 2018 we
bought a small and
adorable German Shepherd
puppy Atlas. Within 9
months he grew up to be
35kg of love with
unstoppable desire to redo
our furniture whenever we
were away.
Since we kind of preferred
to have at least the outer
walls of the house intact, I
started to look for a friend
for him. As I scrolled
through the Gouves Animal
Shelter page I found Hugo
and fell in love.
The first step was to figure
out how we could bring him
to Finland. It turned out to
be really simple and the
preparations for Hugo's
departure were started.
Finally the day came when
the flight escort arrived
through pushing Hugo in his
box at the airport arrivals.
When we opened the box
door, out came a happy, tail
wagging Hugo, who was
immediately the target of
hugs and kisses. Even though
the journey had been long,
he was still happy and

everyone's hearts and
made his home on the
sofa. He loves to be
cuddled, run around the
garden and sleep in his
soft bed. While we are at
work, he plays with Atlas
or sleeps at the couch.
Hugo has now been in his
new home for a week.
Atlas loves him with all of
his heart, playing with the
energy of a puppy and
drowning Hugo in kisses.
And the best part - no
more renovating the
house! Hugo is everything
we were told he would be
- he is friendly to
everyone from people to
cats. His new home also
includes two cats, Tiuhti &
Viuhti!
When I come home, he
greets me happily and
when I sit to the couch, he
jumps next to me, rest's
his head on my chest and
sighs. More than once
have I shed tears of
happiness in these
moments. Just one week
has passed and the
adventures of Hugo and
Atlas are just beginning!
In a week he had melted

OUR FIRST MILESTONE:
50 MEMBERS!
After 13 months we have 50 subscribers!
Thank you to everyone, your help is so
important for the animals. We need 1500
monthly subscribers to enable us to meet
all the regular running costs of the shelter
and medical care of all our dogs and cats!
Please help us to reach our goal by telling
your friends about us.
OUR MISSION
The long term goal of any animal shelter should be to close
down. Our dream is to live in a world where all pets have
responsible owners who neuter them, so that one day there will
be no more strays.
We believe that the key lies in educating the current and the
next generation of pet owners, and in neutering programs.
Until we reach that goal, our aim is to be financially secure
enough to help every sick or injured animal that finds its way to
us, to provide the best care possible to all animals at the
shelter and to find good homes for them as quickly as possible.
What would please us more than anything is to be able to
improve the facilities at the shelter. We do the very best that
we can with the resources we have, but we could do so much
more if we had the money to do it.
If we can cover monthly costs with a members club, we will be
taking a huge leap forward for our furry friends.
FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS, THANK YOU. 17

LESLY
THE FORGOTTEN SWEETY
Lesley came to the shelter
two years ago with her sister
Rika. They were both just
puppies and we were
confident they would find
homes soon. Unfortunately
they missed their cutest
months and ended up staying
in the shelter for far longer
than we hoped for.
We really don't understand
why this little girl is so
overlooked - she would be
perfect in most homes!
She is playful and
submissive, loves to cuddle
and would do anything for a
treat. Training with her is
always a pleasure, because
she is smart and eager to
learn. Not to mention her
manners with other dogs!
Lesly gets along with
everyone and is always
happy to make new friends.
She goes to them politely,
wagging her tail and turning
her head from side to side.
She radiates joy when she is
outside playing with others
or running after a ball. At the
same time nothing would be
better than cuddling with
people and relaxing on a
comfortable bed, her past
completely forgotten and air
filled with love.
20

And she is just absolutely stunning with her snow white
coat and beautiful caramel markings! A joy to see every
day.
She really does not have a bad bone in her and we could
recommend her even as a first dog. Her easy going nature
and submissive behavior is the perfect combination.
Maybe this year Lesly will have better luck and someone
will see just how special she is. We know if she would just
have the chance, she would be the best thing that ever
happened to one lucky family!
Please let us
know if you
think Lesly
could be the
dog for you or
someone you
know.

MUNICIPALITY TAKING ACTION
TO CHANGE OPINIONS
TOGETHER WE CAN DO IT!
MUNICIPALITY &
THE SHELTER TOGETHER
22

SLOWLY BUT STEADILY CHANGE
WILL HAPPEN!
We know that it takes a lot of effort and co-operation to make
things better for the animals. Not only do we need to control
the stray population by neutering, but we need to educate
people about animal welfare and most importantly, how to
humanely treat animals.
This is a huge and long term goal, which wont be achieved in a
year or without help. That is why it's essential that have the
government's support. They need to enforce the laws that are
already in place, they need to educate the public and they
need to have a united front with the rescue organizations.
Fortunately our municipality is one of those who are positive
to make progress and who try to help the situation. We
communicate with them openly and try to come up with ways
to make things better. During the past years they have given
food and free neutering for animals in need and this year, for
the first time, they held a two day seminar about animals.
The first day was for people
involved within animal welfare, so
we could share ideas and see where
the municipality was heading. The
second day was for
public, to get basic info on
animal care.
It might not be a huge thing alone,
but it tells us that our efforts are
not in vain and that the
municipality is ready to take action
and do more than just making the
right noises.
Slowly we can make a change, when
the right people come together!

FOUR KITTENS DUMPED
IN THE TRASH
24
This month we introduce
you to four kittens who can
be considered both the
lucky and unlucky ones.
These four cute kittens
were found in a trash can in
a nearby village. Why?
Maybe they were the
unwanted offspring of an
owned cat or maybe
someone local thought this
would be an easy way to
stop more stray cats from
taking over the town.
Whatever the reason, it
meant a certain death for
these little ones.
Just days old, they were too
young to keep themselves
warm, not to mention their
constant need of mothers
milk with all of it's
nutrients!
Luckily the kind lady who
found them decided to take
action. The right person at
the right time you could say!

This amazing person has
fostered more cats than we
can count and of course she
made room for the kittens
too. Now they are in her
expert care and we hope
their luck stays on this
course.
With kittens it is even more
difficult to give them what
they need, since formula
milk and hot bottles only
take you so far. Even with the
best care these kittens are
still in critical condition.
All we can do now is hope
that they will pull it through
and once they do, they can
find their forever families.
They are in the best care and
they have all the chances we
could give to ensure they will
become healthy and happy
adult cats.
25

When you have added a four
legged friend to your household,
you start thinking about the
things you can do together. Many
people love walking or even
hiking – depending on their level
of fitness and that of their dog.
So before you end up in a daily
routine that takes you to the
same trees, garden and house
corners every evening, why not
become a bit more adventures?
Depending on your dog and how
comfortable it is in new
environments, explore your very
own hometown and towns, parks,
forests. Choose carefully and
don't overwhelm your dog.
Sunday mornings are usually
quieter in town centers and flea
markets can be very crowded.
Make sure your dog is on a safety
leash just in case.
Usually there are always areas
and streets in one' s own town
which are nice and where one has
never been before. Or where you
only go by car and then your miss
the smaller streets.
26
EXPLORING THE WORLD
THE PERFECT HOBBY
So, look up your town on a map or
on the internet, look for a parking
lot or use public transport. If you
think your dog can handle public
transport, it will be a good
learning experience. Maybe you
can also form a group with other
dog owners and meet regularly.
Plan a bit ahead. Is there
something interesting to see? Is
there a park? Is there a coffee
place? Is there a forest? Do you
need food and water for you and
the dog? Take your mobile and/or
your camera and and make lots of
pictures! Either snap shots or
artful ones.
When you are back home, collect
your photos in a separate folder
for each walk. Then you can print
out a few good shots or have
them printed on the internet,
and make your own adventure
book. Either you simply glue
them in a notebook and add the
little stories which happened or
you make a high-end photo book
of it. Or a blog or a site on the
internet.

After some time you'll notice that
you know your very own town
much better, your and your dog's'
fitness improves because you'll
make longer walks than you
normally do, your dog has a lot of
new experiences to build on and
you have a nice collection of
memories.
And maybe then you'll want to
switch to bigger adventures, like
a hiking trip. Your dog will have
learned a lot on your previous
walks. Choose the right location:
The sea, soft hills or really high
mountains? Either plan daily
walks from one place or you' ll
carry your luggage from one
place to the next. Make sure the
place takes dogs. Estimate the
daily distance realistically –
better less then too much, so
ensure enough time to relax or
for breaks on the way.
Again a nice photo collection will
be an additional reward for cold
winter evenings. Your dog will
learn to trust you much more and
you'll become a fabulous team.

How did you get involved with the shelter? It was 2012 when I first visited the
shelter. I’d always known about it but hadn't visited until then. When I first walked
in I was over whelmed by the amount of dogs there, and I knew from that moment
that I had to get involved. I have always had a passion for dogs, going way back to
being a young girl. When I was about 12 years old my best friend and I did a raffle
at school to raise money for the RSPCA, and we made a speech about the need to
help abused and abandoned animals. I think we raised about £55 and I still have
the certificate somewhere. Caring for the helpless seems to be something that has
always been installed in me.

Visit the Praxie's Promise website
here.
The charity was named after one
of our longest residents.
How do you help?
I like to focus on the dogs that get
overlooked; the ones that struggle and
become depressed in the shelter. I have a
great friend who lets me use her land for
free and we have built a couple of
kennels.
I try to take the dogs that are having a
hard time at the shelter - to get them well
again. I also try desperately to prevent
dogs from ending up in the shelter in the
first place. I am fortunate enough to have
lots of animal loving friends who quite
often end up fostering dogs for us to
prevent them ending up in the shelter in
the first place.
I also use my network of friends and
contacts to transport dogs to the UK once
we have found a home for them. The trip
can be a logistical nightmare but all worth
it when I see photos of the dogs in their
lovely new homes.
What do you hope for the future?
I'm a huge believer of neutering the
strays. I don't think the only answer is to
scoop up all the strays and put them in a
shelter. This will never solve the problem.
We need to support the neutering of
strays and focus on education. The
younger generation will form the future
so let’s try to teach them how to be kind
and responsible as best we can. We
cannot erase history but we can shape the
future.

WHEN DOG
MEETS DOG
We all know how to greet a friend
or stranger in the right way – but
it’s a lot different in the dog
world – and there are some
important things you should learn
to look out for to avoid harm or
stress to your dogs.
When allowed to move freely a
well-mannered (off leash) dog will
avoid sustained direct eye contact
when meeting a new dog. He
willapproach with a smooth gait in
a perpendicular or semi-circular
manner.
This allows each dog to size the
other up and determine whether
there is a threat to safety, or a
polite invitation to say hello.
Dogs sniff each other to gain
information, usually beginning at
the muzzle and working toward the
anal glands.
After about three seconds, dogs
they typically either choose to
play, or disengage.
to signal non-threatening
intentions.Leashed greetings are
often face-to-face with sustained
eye contact as they close the
distance. Dogs normally do that
when they are threatening each
other.
Meanwhile, their handlers may be
standing still engaging in polite
human greeting behavior. That
forces dog to remain in close
proximity far longer than they
prefer.
Imagine a human handshake that
goes on…and on…and on…while
the stranger is two feet away,
staring at you. It would be
uncomfortable for people, and it is
uncomfortable for dogs.
If leashed dogs choose to
disengage, they are trapped by
leashes and so tension rises until
there is an outburst, which could
lead to a fight.
30
It’s a different story when dogs
meet whilst leashed because they
lose the option of free movement,
limiting their ability to
communicate through body
language. Communication is vital

If leashed dogs choose to play
together, they can entangle
themselves and their handlers, and
that can turn to panic and conflict.
If the same two dogs were to meet
unleashed, the outcome could be
entirely different. The best dog
introductions are done off leash in a
safe area, with two attentive and
capable dog handlers who know how
to read canine body language for
stress signs.
A second-best option is to use long
training leads in which the slack is left
on the ground so the dogs can move
about.It can be a good idea to let the
dogs greet briefly, then separate them,
and let them greet again. Doing so
several times allows them to gather
scent and remain calmer during the
process. With repetition, the drama of
an initial greeting fades and they learn
how to relax in the presence of other
dogs.
It can be tempting to take your dog
over to meet other dogs – but it can be
stressful for your dog and after all, if
you were out for a walk (without your
dog) you would probably just
acknowledge strangers rather than
rush up to them while shouting and
waving your arms to greet them.
We do not have to closely engage with
everyone we see in the community,
and neither do our dogs. There is far
more value in giving our dogs a
positive, relaxed experience each time
they see another dog – and by
understanding a little about doggy
etiquette, it’s easy to do just that.

HOW YOU
CAN HELP
START YOUR SPRING CLEANING!
Spring is the time when
nature comes back to life
after a dark winter. So why
not do the same and start
with a fresh and cleaner
environment - whilst
helping the shelter at the
same time!
Spring cleaning is not only
a great way to get your
house tidy, it's also the
perfect opportunity to get
rid of some old stuff, that
you have been hanging on
to for far too long.
But are those things really
making you happy or are
they just cluttering your
house?
De-cluttering for a good
cause can be a great
motivation.
Sort through your house,
room by room, deciding
what to keep, what you can
donate/sell and what
should really belong in the
bin!
32
We know this can be a
difficult task, since we hold
on to the idea that we will
one day fit to those skinny
jeans again, or that we will
lose our memories if we get
rid of stuff that is
sentimental.

Spring without clutter and rubbish

Dangers for dogs during spring
34
During spring some dangers start
to crawl, fly and just plainly
appear like out of nowhere. To
keep your pet safe, be sure to
prepare for one of these
dangerous things that spring and
summer tend to bring out!
1. Snakes - Depending on where
you live, this can be a bigger or a
smaller hazard. Snakes wake up
during the spring, when it starts to
warm up and they can be easily
found on your favorite walking
paths. If your area has poisonous
snakes, be sure to carry
emergency medication with you
and ask your local vet what is the
best way to prepare and avoid
snake bites.
2. Bees - Bees start to emerge just
like snakes during the spring.
While these might not be as
dangerous alone as snakes, a hive
can be even deadly for a dog. So
be sure to check for any beehives
in your garden or by your walking
paths to avoid your dog from
getting stung.
3. Ticks and other parasites
Spring also brings out the nasty
crawling things like ticks and other
parasites. To protect your pet from
these disease carrying things, be
sure to use collars, liquids or pills.
This way your pet can enjoy the
warm sun without the danger of
getting nasty parasites.

HAPPILY EVER AFTER
This time we want to share the Happily Ever After of
Tac, our wonderful little girl!
Tac came to the shelter with her two brothers, Tic
and Toe. They were just small puppies and we hoped
they would find homes quickly. Unfortunately
nobody seemed interested in them and they were
overlooked at the shelter for some time.
One day, Toe got a lucky break and found his forever
home! We kept our hopes up and knew that one day
someone would see how special Tic and Tac were
too.
And now we can tell you the good news - Tac is going to her forever home!
Her loving personality and happy attitude will give her family endless amount
of joy!
Now our hopes are that Tic will be as lucky this year and this terrific trio will
all have their happy ever afters!
