Pensioner fears 137 dogs 'will die' this winter as she cares for them all alone

An elderly lady with 162 dogs and cats in her care is truly terrified of spending another winter alone. Gorica Angelkovska, 71, uses every penny of her pension to run an animal shelter in a small village in Serbia. Without her selflessness, the unwanted and abandoned pups would otherwise starve and die on the streets.

After falling on the ice and breaking her leg last year, Gorica is deeply afraid of what this winter will bring. She told the Mirror : "I am alone. It gets hard to walk around the shelter, to clean and feed them. The concrete gets frozen and slippery. I fell many times and fear what will happen to my dogs if I get injured."
