Peja, Kosovo

Every street dog has a name.

Dogs Of Peja tells the stories of the dogs who share our city — their favourite corners, their rescues, and the people working to give them a future.

Meet the dogs Donate

A photo journal, a rescue network, and a love letter to Peja.

We photograph the stray dogs of Peja, write down what we know about them, and share practical ways to help — from adopting and fostering to donating food, medicine, or a safe ride to the vet.

The site is also a window into Peja itself: its mountains, cafés, old bazaar, and the daily life these dogs move through.

available Patriarchate of Peć

Bobi

Bobi has guarded the Patriarchate gates for six years. He is the unofficial welcoming committee, greeting pilgrims and hikers with a slow wag and patient eyes. He sleeps under the linden tree near the monastery wall and survives on café scraps and the kindness of regulars. He would thrive in a calm home with a garden.
