🚨 FOR THE FIRST TIME, I AM AFRAID FOR THE FUTURE OF HOPELAND. 💔

I never thought I would have to write these words. But here we are.

2026 has been one of our hardest years. And the most frightening part? Every month is worse than the previous one.

Donations are declining, and we are not alone. Animal welfare organizations around the world are struggling to survive.

💔 Every month, I have to use my own money to cover what donations cannot. Food, veterinary care, electricity, medication… The expenses never stop, and the dogs cannot wait.

We have already reduced the number of dogs in our care, not only because we are relocating, but because we simply cannot afford to continue at the same pace.

At the same time, we are struggling to prepare our new home. Fences, safe spaces, essential construction… Everything costs money we don’t have.

Love doesn’t pay veterinary bills. Determination doesn’t buy dog food. And hard work alone cannot build fences.

💔 For the first time, I am asking myself: Is the future of our dogs truly safe?

I am doing everything I can. But I cannot do it alone anymore.

❤️ I am not asking you to save me. I am asking you to help me continue saving them.

Even €5 or €10 matters. Monthly donations give us stability. And sharing this post could bring us the support we desperately need.

🐾 We have spent years giving these dogs a second chance. Please help us protect their future.

🚨 DON’T WAIT UNTIL JACOB GROWS UP.
🐾 He needs a family NOW.

Jacob is still a puppy. ❤️

He was found alone with his siblings, trying to survive, when no puppy should ever have to know what survival means.

Today, Jacob is safe—but safe is not the same as having a home.

He is incredibly social, smart, energetic and full of life. He loves people, loves interaction, and is ready to discover what it means to belong to a family.

🐶 Jacob
• Puppy
• Very social & friendly
• Smart and energetic
• Medium size when fully grown
• Expected adult weight: maximum around 18 kg

Please don’t wait until it’s too late.

Don’t wait until the tiny puppy becomes an adult dog.

Don’t wait until people stop noticing him.

Don’t let Jacob grow up wondering why everyone chose someone else. 💔

Choose him while he still has his whole life ahead of him.

🚨 DON’T LET CHA GROW UP IN A SHELTER. 🚨

She should be growing up in someone’s home not waiting for someone to finally notice her.

Meet CHA. 🤎🐾

Cha was found as a tiny puppy, alone in a field with her siblings. They had no home, no safety, and no idea what their future would be.

We promised them something better.

Most of her siblings have now found their families. But Cha and one of her brothers are still waiting.

And every day, Cha gets a little bigger.

💔 Please don’t wait until she is an adult to notice her.

Puppies grow incredibly fast, and we know how much harder adoption can become once that tiny puppy face disappears. Cha deserves to experience growing up inside her own home, beside her own family.

She is everything you could wish for:
🐾 incredibly sweet
🐾 super social
🐾 playful and energetic
🐾 affectionate and full of life
🐾 and with those gorgeous Beagle-like looks, absolutely impossible not to love!

Fully grown, we estimate Cha will be around 15–18 kg and approximately 45–48 cm tall a beautiful medium-sized girl.

She survived being abandoned in a field.

Now she needs something only you can help us find:

HER FAMILY. ❤️

Maybe you cannot adopt Cha. But someone following you might be exactly the person we are searching for.

🙏 SHARE HER. SHARE HER AGAIN. TAG A FRIEND.

Sometimes one share is all it takes to change an animal’s entire life.

Sharing is caring. Sharing can be the reason Cha goes home.

💔 DON’T LET TAO GROW UP IN A SHELTER.

When Tao came to us, he was terrified.

He was so scared that he couldn’t even look people in the eyes. He didn’t know if he could trust us. He didn’t know that humans could mean safety, love and kindness.

Look at him now. ❤️

Tao is 8 months old and has transformed into a happy, energetic, funny boy who LOVES life. He loves to run, he loves to play, and he loves being part of everything happening around him. 🐾

He currently weighs around 15 kg and we expect him to be approximately 18–20 kg fully grown — a perfect medium-sized dog.

But there is one thing we cannot give him.

A family of his own.

Tao has already spent too much of his puppyhood in a shelter. Please don’t wait until he is one year old… then two… and suddenly becomes another adult dog people scroll past.

He deserves to know what it feels like to sleep in his own bed.
To have his own humans.
To belong somewhere. 🏡❤️

TAO NEEDS A HOME.
And sometimes, one share is all it takes for the right person to see him.

🙏 SHARE TAO.
Because sharing really is caring.

🚨 PLEASE DON’T LET LILO GROW UP IN A SHELTER. 💔🐾

Lilo is only 7–8 months old.

He and his siblings were found alone in a field, trying to survive. They were just babies with nobody to protect them.

Today, every single one of his siblings has found a home.

Everyone except Lilo. 💔

And we really don’t understand why.

Lilo is social, incredibly smart and SO funny. 😂 He absolutely loves balls 🎾 and playing fetch, and he loves being around people.

He has everything it takes to become an amazing family dog.

🐶 Male
🎂 7–8 months old
⚖️ Expected adult weight: around 18–20 kg — medium-sized
❤️ Socialized and people-loving
🎾 Ball & fetch obsessed
🧠 Smart, playful and funny
🐕 Comfortable with adult dogs, but not a good match with dogs around his own age

His first birthday should be celebrated in a HOME — not in a shelter.

Please don’t wait until he’s older.

Don’t wait until the puppy everyone could have chosen becomes the adult dog everyone scrolls past.

These months matter. He deserves to spend them learning what it means to have his own family, his own bed, his own people and all the love and attention that come with them.

🏡 LILO IS LOOKING FOR HIS FAMILY.

Maybe you’re the person we’ve been waiting for.

🙏 SHARE LILO.
One share could put him in front of the person who will finally say: “That’s my dog.”

🐾 PLUM DESERVES TO GROW UP IN A HOME — NOT A SHELTER.

Plum came into this world with no protection.

She was found alone with her siblings. No mother beside them. No one to keep them warm, no one to protect them from danger.

Maybe in another life, Plum would have had her mother. She would have known safety from her very first breath. But in this life, she was born straight into danger.

We cannot change the beginning of her story. But someone can change the ending. ❤️

Today, Plum is 6–7 months old. She is a beautiful, social, happy and playful young girl who is expected to be around 18 kg when fully grown.

And she is waiting.

Waiting while the days become weeks and the weeks become months.

💔 Please don’t let Plum grow up in a shelter.

She deserves to discover what it feels like to sleep in her own bed. To have her own person. To belong somewhere. To grow up knowing that this time, someone is there to protect her.

🏡 ADOPT PLUM. CHANGE HER WHOLE WORLD.

DON’T WAIT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE.

When a dog dies, suddenly the post gets hundreds of likes.
Hundreds of comments.
Hundreds of shares.

Their story becomes viral.

People write:
💔 “I’m so sorry.”
💔 “Poor baby.”
💔 “I wish I had seen this sooner.”

But why do we have to wait until it’s too late?

Where were those shares when that dog was alive and desperately needed a home?

Where were those comments when we were begging for help?

Where were those 500 likes when one share could have reached the person who might have adopted them?

A dog should not have to die to be seen.

So we want to start a campaign:

DON’T WAIT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE.

When you see an adoption post — SHARE IT.
When you see a shelter asking for help — DON’T SCROLL.
When you cannot adopt — HELP THAT DOG BE SEEN.

It costs nothing to share.

Maybe your share reaches nobody.
Maybe it reaches the one person who changes that dog’s entire life.

We don’t want viral goodbye posts.

We want viral adoption posts.

Help us make dogs visible while they are still here to be saved.

🐾 SHARE BEFORE IT BECOMES A GOODBYE.

💔 SHE CAME TO US AS A PUPPY. NOW SHE IS 4–5 YEARS OLD. PLEASE DON’T LET HER GROW OLD IN A SHELTER.

Her name is Pepita. ❤️

Pepita arrived at Hopeland when she was just a puppy, together with her siblings.

One by one, she watched them leave.
One by one, they found their families.

Pepita never did.

Today, she is the last one still waiting.

She is now around 4–5 years old, approximately 60–63 cm tall and 30 kg. She is incredibly smart, obedient, knows how to walk on a leash, and she is ready for a life beyond the shelter gates.

But there is one thing Pepita has never known:

🏡 She has never lived in a home.

She doesn’t know what it feels like to have her own bed.
To belong to someone.
To fall asleep knowing that tomorrow she will wake up next to her family.

We love Pepita. We have protected her and cared for her all these years. But a shelter cannot give a dog what a real home can.

And it hurts to watch another year pass.

Please, help us change her story. 🙏

Maybe you cannot adopt Pepita.
Maybe you live too far away.
Maybe you already have dogs.

But you can SHARE her.

Because somewhere out there could be the person who has been waiting for a dog exactly like Pepita they simply haven’t seen her yet.

❤️ SHARING IS CARING.
🐾 SHARE UNTIL PEPITA FINDS HER HOME.
🏡 SHE HAS WAITED LONG ENOUGH.

Have you ever felt like giving up… but something kept pulling you forward?

Chasing dreams sounds beautiful.

But no one talks about what it really looks like.

It looks like sleepless nights, uncertainty, endless paperwork, setbacks, and wondering whether you’re strong enough to keep going.

This year has been one of the hardest of my life.

Building our new shelter has been far more complicated than I ever imagined. Before we can build a single kennel, we need plans, permits, approvals, and applications to the Urban Planning Office, Veterinary Services, the Archaeological Service, and other authorities. Every step has an emotional and financial cost.

I knew nothing about this world.

And yes, there were moments I questioned whether insisting on doing everything legally was worth it.

But Hopeland deserves to be built the right way.

The truth is…

We need help.

We need someone to join our team.

We need people who believe in this dream and can support Hopeland with a monthly donation, giving us the stability every rescue needs.

Most of all, we need people who remind us not to give up.

To every volunteer, our amazing adoption team, and everyone who has stood beside us this year…

Thank you.

You didn’t just help the dogs.

You helped me keep chasing this dream.

❤️ LOVE’S RECOVERY ISN’T OVER… BUT SHE’S FIGHTING. ❤️

Two weeks after leaving for treatment, Love is back home at Hopeland. 🐾

There is good news: her skin condition has improved a lot, and her white blood cell count has finally started to go down. It’s still higher than normal, but we’re finally moving in the right direction. 💛

Love still has 10 more days of antibiotics ahead of her, followed by another full examination. We are still searching for the underlying cause of everything that happened to her, so her recovery journey is not over yet.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who supported Love and made her treatment possible. Your kindness is giving this sweet old girl a chance. 🙏

For those who don’t know her story…

Love is a senior dog rescued from the infamous horror house. She has been with us for five years. In all that time, she has never caused a single problem. She is one of those dogs who never truly learned to trust humans again. The fear is still there. You can see it in her eyes.

And yet… she is incredibly gentle.

You can pick her up. You can cuddle her. You can hold her close, and she will never react with aggression. She simply freezes, carrying memories we will probably never understand. We don’t know what horrors she lived through before she was rescued, but we know she deserved so much better.

Now she needs time, treatment, and people who care.

💛 If you would like to support Love’s ongoing medical care, every donation makes a difference.

Together, we can help this beautiful soul continue her journey toward healing.
