To make the food last longer, dogs have already been under rations for a whole month! They must east stale bread, and suffer from diarrhea and allergies.
1. Following the death of another animal rescuer, Antonia gathered 24 dogs overnight : that makes 24 hungry tummies more to feed...
Miu Mariana surrounded by her dogs. Well known in Romania in the animal protection field, she died on February 14, 2019, leaving 80 dogs behind... Antonia gathered 24 of them on March 2.
Some of the dogs recovered by Antonia on the day of their transfer, March 2, 2019...
On February 14, an elderly woman died in Romania from cancer. She cared for about 80 dogs, and was well known on social networks in the animal welfare community.
Following her death, it was necessary to find people to take care of her animals. Unfortunately, only a few associations have mobilized to relocate them: Antonia had to recover a total of 24 dogs on March 2, much more than she had initially thought!
She now has 170 dogs to support: the equivalent of nearly 2,5 tons of croquettes per month!
2. During our visit on March 15, we noticed that the food stock was exhausted: Antonia can no longer feed her 170 dogs!
During our visit, the only "reserve" of dog food was the last bags bought by Antonia...
Antonia made a lot of publications to alert about her situation, and bring in more donations. Unfortunately in vain: only a few bags have been collected thanks to these actions so far...
When Antonia called us for help, we sent Andrei to the shelter to take full measure of the urgency of the situation. It was on March 15th....
Last October, the Animal Webaction community came into action to offer 6000 kg of kibbles to the shelter, but they were all consumed...
Since the end of January, Antonia has been trying to manage on her own, but the unexpected arrival of 24 new dogs has added a huge burden, both in time and money. Antonia can no longer get out of it and called us for help.
Andrei, whom we sent on the spot last week, confirmed it to us: Antonia's situation is very delicate!
3. We saw dogs on rations, fed on stale bread: they are hungry, get sick and weaken!
Here is the stock of stale bread that Antonia has collected from the canteens of neighbouring schools...
At 16 years old, Vasilica suffers from cancer. The last time Antonia bought cheap kibble, he suffered from diarrhea during the few days he ate it. He won't survive long without proper food!
We have seen it with our own eyes: Antonia's dogs haven't eaten their fill for several weeks
For nearly a month and a half, the dogs have only held out thanks to occasional donations and stale bread donated by the canteens of neighbouring schools. Andrei could see that the only food stock on site was this bag of dry bread....
For lack of money, Antonia has to buy poorer quality kibble that she distributes in dropper form and day by day....
Many dogs show signs of weakness, and become thinner and thinner. Many suffer from diarrhea due to poor diet, and 3 have even developed allergies because of inadequate food: they need our help!
4. A partner association has already sent kibbles, but everything has been used already
The 100 kg of food sent by a partner association only allowed the dogs to be fed for one day! There had been nothing left of it for a long time when we went to the shelter...
A few weeks ago, already facing the difficulty of feeding her dogs, Antonia sought the help of the Belgian association Hope pour Eux, which regularly supports her. She was able to have 100 kg of kibble delivered to her exceptionally, but this stock was used in a single day.
Unfortunately, this friendly association is already struggling to finance its own actions and is mainly dedicated to finding families for the animals saved by Antonia. This support was exceptional and unfortunately cannot be renewed.
5. Rescued by Antonia in critical conditions, sometimes with after-effects, all these dogs we saw at the shelter need food!
Antonia found Clovis in a pool of blood: he was shot to the chest! Without Antonia's intervention, Clovis would have died for sure
Poor Gabi was found wandering, completely blind... She would have died if Antonia hadn't kept her protected at the shelter.
About 7 years old, Roti is an aggressive dog with whom it is difficult to work, even after several months spent at the shelter: what would have happened if Antonia had left him in the wild?
Abandoned by a businessman too busy to take care of her, Betty knew the pound before reaching Antonia's shelter. A few weeks after her arrival, she contracted canine distemper and ended up paralyzed. Against the advice of the veterinarian, who wanted to euthanize her, Antonia tried by all means to save Betty... and she succeeded! Today, Betty is once again able to move thanks to Antonia's determination
Poor Bruno was abused by his former owners. Today, probably because of stress, he still loses his hair....
Selina, 4, was found on the side of a road, injured by a car. One of her legs was broken: today, the wound has been healed, and Selina can walk again thanks to a metal pin.
Hit by a car, Zita only recovered thanks to Antonia...
6. If we don't reach the target, the dogs won't receive any food
Une collecte échouée sur Animal Webaction
We can come into action, we have already booked a truck and pallets, but we have to pay it before 31/03/2019.
If the collection fails, we will not be able to pay, the departure of the truck will be cancelled and none of the collected food will be delivered...
If the collection fails, we will refund all donors.
7. Abandoned by the city hall, left with no answer to her calls for help, Antonia can no longer buy kibble: she cannot take it anymore
Antonia is on her own to feed all the dogs at the shelter...
In 2017, Antonia accepted an offer from the municipality: they would lend her a land properly equiped to care for dogs, if her shelter also acted as the city's official pound.
Since then, Antonia has never had so many dogs at the shelter and cannot refuse them. She confirmed it to us again during our visit last friday, the mayor does not care about her financial difficulties: he categorically refuses to participate in the food purchase.
A small Belgian association helps her, but she can't afford to pay for food. In recent months, Antonia has tried to set up new partnerships with other associations or local businesses, but no one has replied... She's more isolated than ever.
With 170 dogs, she needs nearly 2.5 tons of kibble every month: at the moment, there is no solution to buy this quantity.
8. Everyday, Antonia has to face the suffering of Romanian dogs. Without food, she will have to stop her rescues
Terraluz and Fripouille : two dogs rescued from the "abyss of shame" in July 2018. The owner of Terraluz had made sure to lock her in a bag beforehand, to guarantee she wouldn't come out...
Claw marks are visible everywhere on the walls of the pit, showing othe frequency of these abandonments. Antonia goes there as often as she can.
Terraluz has since then been adopted under the name Louva, and Fripouille now lives at the shelter where he is waiting for his family.
Antonia goes weekly to a garbage pit called "the abyss of shame": used as a dump, this pit is also regularly used for the abandonment of domestic animals.
"The huge vertical concrete walls don't give them a chance, especially since the animals sometimes injure themselves in their fall... I go there with a ladder and go down amidst the filth and, sometimes, rotting bodies..."
Without kibble, Antonia will have to give up her visits to the pit, as well as the other rescues she's been making until now...
9. Antonia gave up her job to devote her life to rescuing dogs from Romania
While she enjoyed a comfortable life and a leading position in a German company based in Romania, Antonia decided 7 years ago to give up everything to devote herself to the animal cause.
"I was constantly on the road, and I saw every day the extent of the stray dogs problem in our country. One day, it was no longer possible for me to cope with these hungry animals and dead bodies littering the roads in complete indifference. »
Today, she devotes all her time to the association and shelter she created, as well as to her 7-year-old daughter, whom she has been raising alone since her divorce.
10. Antonia has to take care of the shelter 7 / 7 days a week: her family life and health suffer!
"Not a day off for 4 years, working 7 days a week... not to mention that I have my 7-year-old daughter to look after and for whom I can't find enough time. I don't see her growing up." (In this picture, Antonia's daughter was under 2 years old)
Antonia is exhausted by her commitment to the shelter, both physically and mentally "Often I don't go to bed until midnight or one o'clock in the morning, and I go to the shelter around 4 or 5 o'clock to clean the cages or take care of sick dogs," she explains.
"If you look at my Facebook page, you may feel that everything is going well... No one can imagine how tired I am because of the sleepless nights of watching a suffering animal or wondering how I will feed the dogs the next day, or how I will be able to vaccinate them..."
"The few savings I had when I left my previous job were all invested in the shelter, and then I divorced, finding myself alone to support my daughter."
11. The slaughter of street dogs in Romania
A few years ago, there were referendums about stray dogs, after a child was got bitten.
Since then, dogcatchers have done their best to catch dogs and take them to the pound." We have seen dogs of private individuals, even on a leash, caught by dogcatchers. They even went into private courtyards. After that, you have to pay to get them back, prove that you are the masters. »
And those who are really wandering are even worse off " We found dogs hanging, drowned. Others with the snout cut off. They sell them as wolf muzzles in exchange for cartridges. »
12. What will the 6000 kg of food be used for?
The 6000 kg collected will be used to feed the 170 dogs gathered at Antonia's shelter.
13. 100% transparency guaranteed
- Animal Webaction has been helping more than 833 animal welfare associations over the past 5 years, with more than 1,967 deliveries in 8 countries (see photos).
- We make sure to contact each partner association, inquire to ensure its reliability and always ask for supporting documents.
- Our partner associations only receive physical products, which means we never send money. When you offer 10kg of food, we deliver 10kg of food to the association.
- We also deal with transportation ourselves, and make sure all the products collected are properly brought where the association needs them to be, so a quick delivery is guaranteed.
- We will notify you by email as soon as the product bought thanks to your donation has been delivered.
- We will ask the association to take pictures of the food received, and will send you these pictures.
- If you change your mind, we will refund your donation upon request, without charge or proof of any kind.
- If unfortunately the collection fails, we will not deliver anything, we will refund you the full amount of your donation.
