D.R.E.A.M was born after 15 years of private self-funded dog rescue by founder George Lista.

This is a personal passion project rescuing and feeding street dogs, volunteering with rescue shelters, supporting trauma and injury rehabilitation including training and adoption conditioning.

Please follow our social links below and help us grow 🙏🏼

Currently back in the UK after saving 3 of our dream dogs from abuse and neglect at the hands of a poorly run shelter in southwest Türkiye.

Shocking hygiene caused dogs to get infected and wilful neglect resulted in injuries, mostly downplayed or concealed by the British expats in charge.

We now focus on finding great forever homes for Eddie, Luna and Sosis 🐾

The name of the rescue is D.R.E.A.M which stands for Dogs Rule Everything Around Me. Removing ego and making it all about the dogs and the people who dedicate themselves to helping them.

This website is an amateur DIY attempt and this first logo attempt was created without a graphic designer. We are currently seeking help to develop the concept into a professional logo that will allow us to create clothing and other merchandise to help raise funds.

Please note that any donations received are never ring-fenced just for dogs, at any moment we may need to help a hungry or injured bird, cat, fox, pig, horse… whilst the priority for this project is dogs, if funds allow, other animals will always be helped where possible.

Once we complete this process, the hope is that we can find funding and donations to purchase (or rent) a suitable transport vehicle to get our current rescues out of kennels inTurkiye. Grateful for any support.
