Pazardzhik launches a November campaign to neuter stray dogs

The Municipality of Pazardzhik announced the start of a campaign to neuter stray dogs in November 2026. The operation will be carried out with the participation of volunteers, an external specialized company, and a municipal team, and will last nine working days.

During the operation, the animals will be captured, transported to a veterinary clinic, and subjected to neutering, deworming, and vaccination against rabies. After the procedures are completed, each dog will receive an ear tag with an individual number and a microchip, after which it will be returned to the place where it was taken from.

The following days and areas are planned for work from 7:30 to 13:30: November 2 – Industrial zone around Drava Street, Milyo Voyvoda Street, and the Maritsa River; November 4 – Sinitevska and Zavodska Streets; November 9 – Dimcho Debelyanov Street and Miryansko Highway; November 11, 16, and 18 – Iztok Quarter; November 23 and 25 – Western Industrial Zone and the Cemetery Park; November 30 – handling citizen reports about stray dogs within Pazardzhik.

The municipality appeals to residents to assist the teams, especially people who daily care for stray animals and know their locations. The exact location, approximate number, and behavior of the dogs will help organize the activities. When capturing, citizens should stay calm and follow the instructions of the staff, and when submitting signals, they should provide the exact location and approximate number of animals. If possible, photographic material can also be provided.

The campaign is part of Pazardzhik Municipality’s efforts to control the population of stray animals and reduce risks to the urban environment. The administration calls for the information about the schedule to be shared with residents in the affected areas to facilitate the work of the specialists.
