About Us
Saving Souls Animal Rescue are a UK based charity 1209645. We support small independent rescue shelters and pounds in Cyprus, who save 1000s dogs from devastating situations, and help them rehome their dogs to loving homes in the UK.
Saving Souls Animal Rescue have a number of their own dogs in kennels and home boarding facilities in Limassol and near Nicosia, but they also support several independent shelters and Pounds across the Republic of Cyprus. These shelters and Pounds rely on Saving Souls to promote their dogs, find them homes and provide rescue back up once rehomed in the UK.

Vet Preparation of all Dogs that travel
All our dogs come:
- Vaccinated (including Rabies vaccine)
- Neutered (if old enough)
- Have their own Pet Passport
- Micro-chipped and registered once adopted
- Having had a Pre-flight Health Check
- Having had full tests for:
- Heartworm disease
- Ehrlichiosis
- Lyme disease
- Anaplasmosis
- *Leishmaniasis
- **Brucellosis Canis
- Worming, tick and flea treatment
*Please note – it is not a mandatory requirement for us to test for Brucellosis Canis and it is not a disease that is prevalent in dogs in the Republic of Cyprus. However, the UK vets are currently requiring tests for Brucellosis Canis before they will treat imported dogs. As such we are testing our dogs before travel from Cypurs, however your UK vet practice may request another Brucellosis Canis blood test after the dog has been in the UK for 4 months.
**Please note – we test for Leishmaniasis for all adults dogs before travel but this disease can lie dormant in the dog. It can be triggered by stress and so a dog who has previously tested negative for Leishmaniasis can test positive later on after adoption. This does happen in a small percentage of our adopted dogs. Please read up on this disease so you are aware of the symptoms to look out for but always speak with your adoption team.
The majority of our dogs are still in Cyprus and will have the costs involved in transportation to the UK.
Typical adoption fee for an adult dog flying from Cyprus is £720*.
Typical adoption fee for a puppy flying from Cyprus is £670*.
Typical adoption fee for an adult dog or puppy already in the UK is £450*.
*Adoption fees do vary based on the cost of the Brucellosis Canis blood test costs for each shelter.
