Help for animal shelter Vaduva

It is a privately run animal shelter in Fundulea Romania, approx. 40km from Bucharest. There are currently 350 dogs there.

The Vaduva family, who run the shelter, take care of all the dogs staying at the shelter as best they can.

Originally, the dogs had owners who looked after their dogs there and paid monthly for their dogs' care. Little by little, some of the owners abandoned their dogs and left the family alone to look after them.

Some dogs still have owners, some of whom only pay irregularly for their dogs, which in turn causes costs for the family.

There are currently around 100 dogs in the animal shelter that were left behind by their former owners.
The costs for care, food and medical care for these 100 dogs remain entirely with the family.

Many dogs are now much too thin and have a very difficult time in winter.

Since Corona and the Ukraine war, feed costs have almost doubled. Added to this are the annual costs for new dog houses and straw so that the dogs can survive the cold Romanian winter.

The majority of dogs without owners were rescued from killing stations or from the streets a few years ago. Among them are many oldies who probably have no chance of finding a warm home without our and your help.

But also younger dogs who shouldn't sit there in the animal shelter for the rest of their lives. However, they have to be seen for this.

Unfortunately, the chances of finding a nice home in Romania are almost exclusively reserved for puppies.

The local volunteers who regularly helped on the weekends and dropped off food donations are also coming less and less often.

That's why we need animal lovers to help so that these dogs can continue to be well looked after there

We would like to support the family with regular food deliveries and medical care for the dogs, as well as everything the dogs need for their well-being.

Together we can make life in the shelter more bearable and comfortable for dogs and ensure that they are shared and seen so that your chances of finding a home increase.

We appreciate every donation, no matter how small, be it for food, medication or other costs.
