Reducing the number of strays
In December 2020, we started our collaboration with the municipality of Santorini. Unlike Marathon and Aegina, Zero Stray Pawject advises the municipality and provides support but does not fund subsidized microchipping and registering.
Municipal Registry
Utilizing Zero Stray Pawject’s knowledge from working with the municipality of Aegina for over 4 years and setting up and growing their municipal registry, ZSP helped the municipality of Santorini to set up their municipal registry as well, capturing all of Santorini’s owned dogs and owner data, as well as stray dogs. We provided digital tools and templates to the municipality for free to utilize and build an understanding of how many owned and stray dogs exist in Santorini.
2,000 municipal dog tags
Zero Stray Pawject designed, produced, and funded 2,000 municipal dog tags to the Municipality of Santorini. Each dog is handed out to an owner who followed the law and microchipped and registered their dog with the national database and the Municipality of Santorini. We have seen that dogs tags contribute to a change in behavior.
