The S.O.S Pets association was established in 1978 by Riki Bassry, the late Dr. Ze'ev Sheiner and the late Mona Halfman, with the aim of helping homeless dogs and cats and improving the condition of animals in Israel. Riki Batsari, who still serves as the volunteer chairman of the association, is the living spirit behind the association's activities throughout the years.

S.O.S Pets opposes animal euthanasia and has adhered to these ethics since the day it was founded and fights for every dog ​​or cat’s life and quality of life. The S.O.S Pets association was the first in Israel to operate and still operates without shelters, based on the principle and belief that human beings should take care of their animals and not abandon them, and to take responsibility for their fate.

The dog unit

SOS pets - dog unit is one of the oldest in Israel and operates relentlessly for many years to improve the lives of stray dogs. The organization is in constant contact with local municipalities to rescue dogs scheduled for euthanasia from local shelters. In addition we treat injured dogs, funding lifesaving operations, hospital admissions and then rehabilitation through the help of volunteers and foster homes, this until the animals can be safely rehomed.

SOS has done incredible work rescuing dogs and Cats from the war zone in southern Israel.

It continues to help and often gives dog food to rescuers in the Negev. They also take puppies to Tel-Aviv and try to find them homes.

Rescue and adoption

Many stray dogs get transported to rescue groups in Tel-Aviv, they try to find homes for the dogs. Unfortunately this is not an easy task, since there are few adoptions.  S.O.S needs foster homes and people who are ready to adopt the wonderful dogs and cats.

Here is an example of their incredible rescue work. Zahavit was brought to S.O.S Pets with her brother from southern Israel. She was severely injured. This organization took her to a veterinary clinic and helped her recover. Now they are trying to find her a good home. Posted on 18/5/2023
