UPDATE: All three puppies are happy, healthy, and ready to find a loving home. They have a bright future ahead and are grateful for your support.
Rusty, Dusty, and Trusty are a trio of puppy siblings living in Greece. All three were found in landfill rubbish with no mother in sight. Shelter staff took immediate action to rescue these sweet pups and give them proper food and medical treatment.
The puppies born at the Xanthi dump face exposure to the elements, disease, and insufficient food. Unfortunately, all three pups were suffering with fleas and skin infections. They were given antibiotics and medicated baths to sooth and treat their skin.
Today, all three puppies are now doing much better and will soon be old enough to join their forever families. Will you help Rusty, Dusty, Trusty, and other dogs like them get necessary medical treatment?
Help nurse this trio of puppies back to health after being rescued from a landfill!

In late 2023, Greater Good Charities was approached by groups working in the city of Xanthi, Northern Greece, to assist in the support of over 600 pets eking out an existence in and around a municipal rubbish site. Since then, working alongside The Animal Rescue Site and community partners, they have provided food, specialist medical care, funded high quality spay-neuter services and supported foster and adoption for dozens of dogs.
Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, Greater Good Charities and The Animal Rescue Site are in the process of deepening our commitment to the pets of Xanthi, ensuring every animal has the support it needs. We are also expanding our reach to several new areas in Greece, supporting both cats and dogs in need.
Rusty, Dusty, and Trusty are just a few of the many pets we're helping in Greece, but we can't cover their ongoing care without your support. Help us meet our goal of $6,000 for these siblings and pets like them. Any funds raised over the goal amount will go to Greater Good Charities' lifesaving programs.
Greater Good Charities has ultimate authority and discretion with regard to the distribution of its funds. All expenditures made are consistent with the exempt purposes of Greater Good Charities.
