We invite all people of good will, especially dog lovers to the project called “Better Together.” We invite all those who are aware of the passage of time and see the civilization changes on people and animals.
The project aims at activating older people as well as to help maintain and possession of unwanted dogs for various reasons, dogs that could be a good aspiration for them to operate without any fear and heavy loads.
The main reason, which stops older people from having a dog or other small pet is their life experience, and the fear of taking responsibility for various random events, such as disease, stay in the hospital or go on holiday etc.Who to leave the dog with during these unexpected absences? The cost of living, food, hygiene and treatments and a dog nowadays ± can be enormous and sometimes exceed the financial capacity of people in retirement. These and other problems could be solved by the “Better Together” program.
