Shelter for abandoned animals of City of Zagreb exists since January 2001. It is located at Dumovec, on the eastern edge of the City. You can reach the shelter driving on the Sesvete. Dugo Selo road (turn at the church in Sesvetski Kraljevac) or from the Ivanja Reka – Oborovo road. Both access points have road signs which will help you find your way.   The City shelter was built by adapting and renovating an old agricultural building so it is completely adequate for housing and care of abandoned dogs in Zagreb area. The shelter cares for many different kinds and breeds of dogs whose common destiny is that they were unwanted. 

All dogs that are ready for adoption in the shelter have been vaccinated against rabies and all common infectious diseases, microchipped, and the adults have also been spayed or neutered. When adopting a puppy, the new owner gets free spaying or neutering at the shelter, per appointment, when the puppy is 5-6 months old. Upon adoption, the new owner signs an adoption contract with the shelter.
