Billionaire Deripaska Rescues 10 Stray Dogs From Sochi to U.S.
THE MOSCOW TIMES2
A charity founded by Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska has brought 10 stray dogs to the U.S. after they were rescued from the streets of Sochi. The six female and four male pooches landed in Washington, D.C., and posed for photographers before being taken to the Washington Animal Rescue League to await their new homes. The charity’s animal shelter in Sochi, PovoDog has been rescuing stray dogs in the city where hundreds of animals have reportedly been killed as the local authorities tried to clear the streets ahead of the Winter Olympics. PovoDog said it has so far rescued more than 200 dogs from Sochi and has found new homes for 50 of them. Many athletes decided to take home some of the animals. U.S. silver medal winner in slopestyle skiing, Gus Kenworthy, adopted three dogs – Mama and pups Mishka and Jake – from Russia. Hockey player Kelli Stack, whose team won the silver, has adopted a dog from a Sochi shelter and named her Shayba. Deripaska, an aluminum magnate and one of the richest men in Russia, has said that he opened up the PovoDog shelter after being reminded of his first pet. «My first dog I found in the street of my village, the tiny village [where I grew up],» Deripaska told the BBC last month. «It was a very close friend for almost five years.»
