Fundacja ADA, located in Poland, operates with a completely different approach to old-school animal centres.

It was set up with the aim of “promoting the protection of animal rights and the care of all species,” reports What’s The Jam.
The star of the shelter is the dog village – a swanky wellbeing concept that helps rescued pooches reach their full capabilities.
Created by Dr Radoslaw Fedaczynski in 2018, dogs stay in behavioural houses rather than boxes.

The idea is that these home-like conditions and a loving environment help the canines to control aggression and ultimately encounter a smoother recovery.
The village has 14 colourful houses surrounded by fields and boasts an agility course, rehab centre and spa.
It’s not just the hounds that are coddled though, feline visitors have the cat empire offering a safe haven while they regain their lives no matter the severity of their sickness or trauma.
