Sometimes it is not easy to find the right words, especially if it is about donations that we need for the animals on Thassos.
But however well meant, sometimes the quality is not very good and we like to explain this further.
It is about collars and leashes for dogs that we always need for small and bigger dogs and for puppies. We are always very grateful when you send us a parcel with collars and leashes, but unfortunately some are of poor quality.
Leashes of which the fastening clip simply breaks, or the loop at the end is glued (instead of sewed) en soon lets loose.
Collars with plastic click clasp that gets loose very easy, or adjustable collars which widen again.
Until now nothing serious happened, but you can imagine how dangerous the situation can get when a dog gets loose on a road with traffic or when a fearful dog runs off.
We are sorry to say that we had to throw some of your donations away, which of course is a waste.
That's why we want to ask you to check the quality of the collar/leash you want to donate. We prefer to use synthetic leather collars with holes. This proved the safest.
In short, better one good dog collar/leash than 10 of poor quality. Nothing feels as bad as throwing away lovingly donated items.
We hope for your understanding and look forward to new sound collars/leashes. The animal's safety is simply our priority.
