The convicted persons who are willing to do so, and who are assessed by the Institution\u2019s expert team as eligible, can participate in the program that includes working with shelter dogs. Within this program, convicted persons take care of abandoned dogs and obtain basic knowledge about their training. At the beginning, the program was applied only in the <a href=\"http:\/\/institutecsr.iksi.ac.rs\/id\/eprint\/138\">semi-open department<\/a> of the Institution, but, in 2019, seven dogs were also placed in the <a href=\"http:\/\/institutecsr.iksi.ac.rs\/id\/eprint\/16\">closed department of this Institution<\/a>. The closed department of the Institution is provided with maximum security and there are more severe limitations and more intense prison deprivations. In this department, persons serving longer prison sentences are placed. That is the reason why working with dogs is of particular importance for them &#8211; it helps them even more to face the loss of liberty and the <a href=\"http:\/\/institutecsr.iksi.ac.rs\/id\/eprint\/316\">deprivations<\/a> that come along with it in a constructive manner.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-619\" src=\"https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-2-1024x665.jpg\" alt=\"Blog 17 Fotografija 2\" width=\"800\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-2-1024x665.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-2-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-2-768x499.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-2-1536x998.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-2.jpg 1662w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Photography 2.

More than 200 dogs are taken care of inside this institution for the enforcement of criminal sanctions. They are accommodated inside a clean and warm facility adjusted to their needs, and provided with veterinary medical care. Convicted persons feed them, clean them, groom them but also train them in order to prepare them for adoption. Namely, members of prison staff who have special knowledge and skills necessary for working with dogs and dog training, teach convicted persons how to train dogs. In that way, dogs are trained and taught basic commands, which increases their chances to find a new home.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-620\" src=\"https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-3-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Blog 17 Fotografija 3\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-3.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Photography 3. <\/em><em>Convicted persons working with dogs in the closed department of Penal-Correctional Institution in Sremska Mitrovica.

Nevertheless, the answer to the question whether and to which extent this re-socialization program is effective when it comes to the suppression of recidivism requires the implementation of long-term and comprehensive research of the data about reoffending and the participation in the program, which would last for a couple of years or even decades. At this moment, however, there is no doubt that it produces direct positive effects on convicted persons, abandoned dogs and broader community. That is the reason why its application is being initiated and planned in other institutions for the enforcement of criminal sanctions in Serbia as well.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-623\" src=\"https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-6-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Blog 17 Fotografija 6\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-6-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-6-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-6-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/prisonlife.rs\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Blog-17-Fotografija-6.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Photography 6. <\/em><em>Convicted persons working with dogs in the closed department of Penal-Correctional Institution in Sremska Mitrovica.
