The abandoned street dogs and cats of the tiny village of Pirogovo, located in the southern part of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, have been very fortunate. The reason for their fortune is the animal shelter that was built on the former city dump on a hill near the village.

The lifesaving animal shelter was established back in 1960. In this area, the shelter is commonly known as the "knacker's yard" or simply the "booth".

Currently, the shelter is operated by the SOS Animals Society of Kyiv. Everyone is grateful for this amazing animal shelter, which cares for over 2,000 stray dogs as well as other abandoned animals.
"Support the Movement for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals" is written on the gate, along with the word "Asylum" on the right.
