After 6 years as active volunteers in public shelter we are still trying to figure out what we should do better for being able to stop the terrible bad phenomenon of abandon , how we can become more visible to the locals here to make them understand somehow that life in shelter it shouldn’t be an option for a soul to whom they promised a good life in their family
After the positive outcome of our adoption outdoor events in summer of 2017, our very first Adoption Event for 2018 was scheduled in the same time with the International Canine Expo hosted by the city hall, 07-08 July 2018.
We started with big hopes and with a bunch of abandoned babies, lovely young souls dumped in public shelter between 04-06 July , the selection being made with the thought that last arrived puppies represent the first priority for going out before they risk to be contaminated with parvovirosis or other bad virus , so common in all big groups of puppies.
The numbers are relative since we continue to receive daily new abandoned babies at the shelter but we must say that our adoption event was a total surprise , a very good surprise for us and our puppies since we were able to make 23 happy adoptions in two days , 20 beautiful families came to the adoption event with a special purpose : to take home with them one puppy from shelter , for being able to save them from a life in kennels! And yes, only 20 families for 23 puppies simply because 3 amazing young came to adopt one puppy and left home with two , isn’t this great?
After two days out of the shelter with our puppies we are glad to say that we met beautiful people that came at the park especially for our dogs, they came to adopt and those that couldn’t adopt came with food donations and even with money donations for our dogs in shelter ! It is a change, a great change that we could see and feel no that we can compare this adoption event with the very first adoption event organized in July 2017. We are glad to say that we didn’t expected such great results, we didn’t realized so far that so many good people follow our work and want to help !
With the big hope that this is only the beginning of a good summer for our beauties that will be present at the future adoption events , we want to say big thank you to all those people that came to adopt, to donate, to meet us and we promis that we will be back in few weeks !
Special thank you to the beautiful sponsor Royal Canin for offering us special adoption kits and toys that we could offer as adoption gift to adopted babies in first day , we are glad to say that the number of adoption was much biger than the number of kits simply because we didn’t expected so many good people at our event , that is why many babies left home with toys offered as a gift by our beautiful donors from Germany !
Forever grateful and always proud to be able to work with the great team from Prodog Romania e.V, Germany, the team that makes possible rescue of so many dogs from public shelter , the team that does everything possible for the shelter dogs here on the ground, the team who offered to every single puppy adopted this week the great gift of survival: FREE VETERINARY CARE IN THE FIRST YEAR OF LIFE ( free vaccination kit, free medical care if anything goes wrong after their first period in shelter and free castration at proper age )
As we always said it : TOGETHER WE ARE STRONG !
Thank you for all your support, thank you for believing in their chance and thank you for making everything possible to help us go further ! Please remember that you can help us too and your donation is always welcome in any of our official accounts!
