OZ Pomoc Psíkom
Who We Are and What We Strive to Achieve
Naša organizácia vytvára otvorené spoločenstvo dobrovoľníkov, majiteľov psov, obcí, miest a ďalších fyzických či právnických osôb, ktoré sa akýmkoľvek spôsobom dostanú do kontaktu s činnosťou združenia.
Každý, kto využije pomoc združenia, zapojí sa do jeho aktivít, spolupracuje pri záchrane zvieraťa, poskytne podporu alebo sa inak podieľa na napĺňaní jeho poslania, stáva sa súčasťou jeho členskej základne.
Všetkých členov spája spoločný záujem o ochranu zvierat a o systematické zlepšovanie kvality ich života.
Činnosť združenia zahŕňa najmä zabezpečenie odchytu zvierat v najkratšom možnom čase, poskytnutie nevyhnutného veterinárneho ošetrenia, následnej starostlivosti a bezpečného útočiska. Významnou súčasťou našej práce je vyhľadávanie pôvodných majiteľov, podpora návratu zvierat do ich domovov, ako aj ich socializácia, prevýchova a príprava na zodpovednú adopciu.
Združenie tak prepája všetky osoby a subjekty, ktoré sa dostanú do kontaktu s jeho činnosťou, do jednej komunity založenej na spolupráci, zodpovednosti a spoločnom úsilí pomáhať zvieratám.
Animal Rescue
What Do We Do for Animal Rescue?
We receive reports about lost and found pets from the municipalities and towns we work with. As soon as we get this information, we dispatch our capture team, which operates 24/7. Our priority is to limit the free movement of animals in public spaces, as wandering without an owner can put their lives at risk. Traffic, hunters, and thieves, all pose dangers, so regardless of whether the dog has an owner, it must be captured and cared for promptly. Each captured dog is then transported to our facility for further care.
Specialized Services
What Do We Do After Capturing a Dog?
The first step after capturing a dog is to use a microchip reader. If the dog is not microchipped, we arrange for microchipping in collaboration with our contracted veterinarian. We administer vaccinations and monitor the dog's health for the next 14 days in isolation at the quarantine station.
Care
How Do We Care for the Dog in the Kennel?
Each dog captured in the municipality is placed in an isolated kennel at our quarantine station, where it waits for its original owner under the supervision of a veterinarian. If the dog has a microchip, we promptly contact the owner.
If the dog is not microchipped and the owner is unknown, we will release it for adoption after the legal waiting period and seek a new home for it.

How Can You Help Our Association?
Are you looking for a way to help us? There is one way that would greatly assist us and positively impact our work — it would save us many headaches, effort, and funds.
Microchip Your Dogs
For some, it’s a given; for many, it’s an ignored legal obligation; for us, it’s a significant problem. Your dog has a microchip, but your neighbor's dog doesn’t? Please educate them to get it done.
If we capture your dog and it has a microchip, we will call you immediately after the capture, and if it’s at night, we will send an SMS. We want to return it to you as soon as possible, and the sooner you pick it up from us, the less you will have to pay to the municipality.
If your dog does not have a microchip, the only way to search for it is through social media, local groups, and the activity of the relevant municipality. Days pass, costs associated with the capture increase, and we have occupied kennels — freeing up space may affect the ability to carry out additional captures.
Capturing a large breed dog is especially challenging. When we pass the microchip reader over the neck of a Caucasian Shepherd, an Asian Shepherd, a Staffordshire Terrier, or a Wolfdog and do not find a microchip, we break into a sweat. After the legal waiting period of 45 days, the dog is released for adoption, but there’s a catch — no one wants it, and so we take care of and feed it like a small horse.
