"This is Mowgli, who I found and rescued whilst I was on holiday in Bulgaria. I had no idea how to raise a puppy and nowhere to stay but I just couldn't leave him behind. That's when Linda, my guardian angel, came into my life. 

Linda gave me a roof and food (if you didn't know she's a fabulous cook!) for the four months I lived there and I had the absolute privilege of watching her work and save so many lives in that time. The memories will last me a lifetime.


Mowgli is now just over a year old and living happily and healthily with me in the UK. He's a stubborn lad but so full of life and has brought so much joy and love into my life.


I'm sure he's misses Bulgaria and Linda just as much as I do, and I really can't emphasise enough the hard work and incredible dedication Linda has given to the animals of Bulgaria, she's an inspiration to me and an absolute god send to the animals of Bulgaria, and to watch the charity grow under her watchful eye for the past year has been awe inspiring. I cannot thank Linda enough for everything she has done for me, and I can't wait to see what the future holds for her and the rest of the DDR team. Love you all. Joe."
