    On our one-year anniversary, we initiated a new chapter in the story about Marianne's Dog Food Bank. We started building a mini-shelter (10 dogs + a quarantine room) in Tuzla.
    In loving memory of Dawn Legge, a fellow rescuer and supporter of MDFB, our mini shelter proudly carries the name "Dawn`s Nest".

    Dawn`s Nest takes in injured strays and help spay/neuter as many dogs in the area as possible - and we will take in dogs that are getting prepared for adoption or foster in Denmark or elsewhere. If possible we will also accommodate dogs from the shelter who are not thriving there.

    Dawn`s Nest is in constant need of following supplies:
    - food, plastic beds, transport boxes / cages, de worming pills, leashes, collars & harnesses, blankets, ticks & fleas prevention, eye & ear drops, antibiotic sprays, supplements such as vitamins, biotin, omega 3,6,9...

    BELLA - AMBASSADOR OF OUR SPAY/NEUTER CAMPAIGN

    Hi, I`m Bella and I was born somewhere around here.
    My mum was very loving and kind, but I don`t remember her so well anymore, one day she went to find food for me and she never came back. I lived alone ever since. My mom didn`t teach me how to cross the street so a car hit me last summer...
    My friends took me to a doctor, but he said my hip was very hurt and he didn`t have all those doctor machines he needed to help me, so my friends took me back, but I recovered pretty well. I still keep my leg up all the time, so I have to walk on my 3 legs. I got used to it.
    Some time ago I got pregnant and that`s when my real troubles started. Last week I heard dog catchers are looking for ME (they even knew my name) to do caesarian on me and my almost born babies. I was in panic, so I run and hid. My babies came to the world the next day, I found safe place for all of us, and went to tell my friends we`re safe and sound, for now.I wonder how will I manage being a mum... Sometimes I had problems taking care of myself, now I have 4 puppies and all they have is me.
    Why my friends didn`t spay me? I wonder about that now... I wonder will they feed my babies too? What if they get sick?
    It`s spring time here now, a wonderful weather . All dogs go out to play but I have to watch over my children. They are so tiny and weak. How will I explain to them not to cross the street?
    Hundreds of stray dogs live on the streets in Tuzla.
    Taking care of themselves and puppies is more than they can handle. New litter is the end of "happy days".
    Join our spay / neuter campaign for Tuzla strays!
    With small steps ahead in a certain timeline we`ll contribute to population control and prevent horrific tragedies families on streets are predestined to.
