Good news from the Filozoikos Shelter in Athens — the first stage of Danae’s eye surgery went very well and she’s proving to be an excellent house guest at her foster home. And Cherry, the puppy who had surgery for a broken leg, is also making great strides.
Volunteer Alexandros ran the classic marathon in Athens to raise money for Danae’s operation. Martha from the shelter tells us:
“Alexandros’ effort was inspiring, Danae’s problem was touching, so by the time Alexandros was finishing the marathon, the amount needed for Danae’s surgery was gathered. Just after the marathon we informed those who made a donation for Danae’s surgery that the amount was gathered and that their donations will be used to pay the cost of Cherry’s surgery. Cherry is already recovering and she thanks you all.
Danae is recovering and relaxing in Ntora’s home who is temporarily fostering her. She is waiting (not very eagerly as we can imagine!!!) for the second part of her surgery next week. She would like to thank you all for your donations that made it possible for her to have the surgery immediately!”
Ntora reports that Danae “has good house manners, is affectionate, gets along with other dogs and cats, is calm in the car and on the leash. What more could anyone want?”
Once Danae is fully recovered from her surgery, she’ll be looking for her forever home. If you can help, please contact kyka@otenet.gr
Danae is gorgeous – I’m so glad she is getting help – someone will be very lucky to have her in their lives!! Such a sweet, sweet spirit…
Ntora is very impressed with Danae and agrees with you wholeheartedly.
That is good news.
All going in the right direction.
Very glad to hear they’re both doing well. Bless Alexandros for running a marathon on behalf of Danae. <3

This is wonderful news about Danae and Cherry. There are some good people in this world. And the fosters that take these animals in are to be commended as well.

Hi:) does anybody know what Breed Danae is? We found our dog “Heidi” in the mountains in Peloponnese, and she looks very much like Danae:)
We believe that Danae is a Collie X Greek sheep dog. A great mix!
