The Bark Ark is a privately run shelter in northern Bosnia. It is home to 700 former stray dogs while they are waiting to find a good home. We need to provide them with basic vet care and food while they wait. 

The Bark Ark doesn't receive any funding from the government. We fully depend on your donations to feed the empty bellies of the dogs at least once a day. Especially in the cold season it is very important to get them some calories to resist the freezing weather. 

At the moment more dogs are coming in than we manage to adopt out. This means we need to buy more and more food, fill more and more bellies although we have a tremendous amount of debts already with most suppliers. The whole Bark Ark project is only possible because of YOU and YOUR donations. We can't thank you enough for your compassion and help. 

We are trying to raise the money we still owe for the last three months of 2022. Can we please help Bark Arker to get the incredible amount of money needed to maintain the shelter! Every single penny counts, no donation is too small.
