Takis, a former DJ and nightclub owner, shares his inspiring journey of giving up everything and changing his life in a 180 degree turn to rescue stray dogs in Crete. Beginning with a few abandoned dogs, his sanctuary now cares for animals of all types. Despite challenges, Takis has transformed local attitudes and inspired global support in tackling Greece's stray dog crisis.
Today, Takis has created a model animal shelter, where over 2,500 rescued dogs have found safety, and 1,500 have been adopted, primarily abroad.
