In July, the three-week searches of two dogs named Yoda and Anubis organized a whole volunteer movement around them, which arose from a spontaneously overgrown telegram channel. The story of how Anton Yukin was looking for missing pets - in the film by Andrei Kiselev and Maria Pavlova.
At first there were six dogs-someone threw them out into the street in a cardboard box. Anton dragged everyone to his home and hardly handed out four, in the course of finding out that people do not strive to shelter with purebred dogs. One of the two remaining, Anubis, as often happens with difficult children from orphanages, was taken, but quickly returned. After some time, Anton still decided to give the dog to his relative, who lives near Tula, but they were not destined to part. Without reaching the destination, Anton got into an accident.
“First of all, I pulled out my friend, poured the hood with a fire extinguisher, and then suddenly saw how Anubis and iodine ran to the other side of the highway and disappear,” he recalls that day. “I could not immediately run after them because they took my friend to the hospital with a broken finger, and I went to the traffic police, where I stayed until one in the morning.”
The concussion and two broken ribs did not prevent Anton from immediately going in search of iodine and Anubis and attract more and more people every day - from Moscow, Tula, Serpukhov. Volunteers combed the area around the scene of the accident, stuck ads, interviewed local residents. They announced the announcements on the Tula "First Channel" and on the radio.
Two weeks later, the guys found iodine, and a week later, when there was practically no hope, Anubisa found it.
Returning to Moscow, Anton realized that the coordination telegram channel created in the process could help other people find missing animals. He decided to quit work and create an organization for the search for pets. The first in the list of big things is to release a special application that would help to quickly organize search operations.
