Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, has adopted a Greek
stray dog according to an announcement on his Instagram account.
“Peanut came into our lives!
He chose us, when two weeks ago, we visited the Illioupolis Animal Welfare Association, on the occasion
of the International Day of Stray Animals.
Open your arms and save a stray,” he wrote on his account.
“The truth is that we did not choose him, he chose us,”
Mitsotakis added.
Peanut has already explored all areas of the Maximos Palace,
the Prime Minister’s official residence and is rapidly adapting to his new
environment. He has already won the love
of the Mitsotakis family and of all the employees, while he generously displays
his tenderness to all.
Greece is introducing new laws for pet owners and pet
sellers, with stricter penalties for abandoning animals, that are occurring due to the 10-year financial crisis and the many economic problems that
most Greeks are facing. Several, unfortunately, are so impoverished, that they can not even have pets.
