Udruga Pobjede
The New Project
A veterinary clinic that reaches beyond the shelter
On an 8,000 m² plot of land next to the existing shelter, Udruga Pobjede is aspiring toward a new veterinary clinic with two life-saving missions:
■ A stationary clinic to serve the shelter's 180 dogs and, eventually, outside patients — creating a sustainable source of self-financing.
■ A mobile veterinary unit that will travel to rural and remote towns where animals currently have no access to proper veterinary care. Vaccinations, sterilizations, and emergency treatment — delivered directly to the communities that need them most.
For over fifteen years, Udruga Pobjede (Victory Association) has been transforming the lives of abandoned dogs in Croatia. Founded in 2009 in Osijek, this no-kill shelter cares for approximately 180 dogs every day and rehomes around 300 dogs each year. Every animal receives full veterinary treatment, microchipping, vaccinations, and spaying or neutering. They are the shelter with the highest number of volunteer hours in Croatia, the official partner of the City of Osijek since 2015, and a contributor to Croatia's Animal Protection Act.
Now, they are ready for their most ambitious chapter yet — and we need your help to make it happen.
