‼️ URGENT, VET TREATMENT NEEDED ‼️

We need you asap so Arthur doesn’t die, he needs immediate vet treatment 🆘!

This is Arthur, yesterday I have found him in front of my home, he was looking sick and I said I can’t take him but I will take him to the vet and let him back but sadly at the vet we have found out that he is in liver failure, HW positive and anaplasmosis positive 💔. We need to do echo on his abdomen and liver ASAP and start antibiotics and liver support therapy 🚨!

I first need to cover the first vetting that is 177€ (blood work, biochemistry, vitamins, hemoplex, 4d test) to continue treatment, we need to raise that ASAP otherwise I can’t let him suffer and I will need to let him go or let him back on the streets where he will enter acute liver failure and die suffering 😭… We need additional 40€ for echo and 40€ for the first antibiotics, he is also anemic, and sadly due to our vet debt we can’t treat him without paying 💔…

Please everyone help us get Arthur to the vet tomorrow to do his echo and start treatment that will save his life 😔🙏!

Do u remember Cindy 😍? The dog cut with a knife on her chest 🥹…

She is very good, she made a full recovery after a surgery on the big infected wound was performed and after treatment ❤️! She is very positive and active dog and I will post her for adoption and hopefully very soon we will see her in her new happy home 💫!

We are very grateful to everyone who gave her their prayers and everyone who helped her get trough this, especially to the girl that covered her first vet costs 😊!

Cindy is a happy and lovely soul, and I try my best to spend time with her like with every other dog at our shelter but it’s hard to manage to play with 60 dogs 🤪!!!

I will keep you updated on Cindy ❣️!

☀️💧WE NEED WATER SUPPORT ASAP💧☀️

Our water tank is nearly empty, and I can’t pay the bill for it to be refilled so I need your help to make that possible and we need support ASAP ‼️ The temperatures are raising and the dogs are in need of constant fresh water, but we are on our last drops 💔!

Thanks to my friends Stichting Jenna's Gift we were able to buy this container that holds 1T of water, and daily I use around 200L of water to clean the kennels, clean the bowls and pour drinkable water in the bowls, and that costs us money because here we don’t have a resource of fresh water 😞… So we came up with a plan to find someone that will come and refill the tank weekly but in the summer that costs us from 100€ to 130€ a week because of the bad road to the shelter where a truck can’t enter and they need to fill smaller tanks, drive them to the shelter, and fill the big tank 😔…

Can you help me raise 250€ for start so at least we can have water in the next two weeks please 🥺? If you can, please do support our dogs to have fresh drinkable water and help me worry a little less for some period 🙏❤️!

🍗‼️ PART OF MAY FOOD DELIVERY ‼️🍗

This morning we have recieved 38 bags of food by our distributor, that is just part of the food that we need to survive for two weeks and in the meantime I need to pay the debt for this food delivery so they bring the rest 😞… Till the end of May we need 75 bags of chunks, that is equal to three bags of kibble a day for our dogs to be well fed and happy 🥹!

I have two weeks to raise 1025€ for this food, and another 1025€ till the end of May so we end the month safely with enough chunks for our dogs that are waiting on me everyday 😔. So please everyone help me raise the half of the total May amount so we can recieve the rest of the food, we are only safe for two weeks that will fly by very fast 💨!

Your support is keeping the shelter running, your support is keeping the bellies of our dogs full and you are the only reason I can still fight this cruel battle and continue saving and helping animals in need ❤️🙏!

It’s that time of the year 🌿!

Yes, few days ago I have started trimming the grass at the shelter as it’s now very big after the constant rain that we had here 🤪! But it will take me few days to trim all the grass as I need to trim over 1000 square meters of grass, and I will need to continue doing that every week to keep the grass low so the dogs can run freely 🥰! Thanks to your support in the past, we have a great trimming machine and I will post more in the next days ✨!

Trimming the grass also keeps mosquitoes and insects like that away, and also snakes that can very easily show up at our shelter because of the location where we are and we don’t like them around our dogs right 🐶?

After I finish trimming the grass I will need to spray all the trimmed section and also the kennels, the houses etc. with powder that will keep away flies and mosquitoes from the shelter and make a big circle around the shelter with sulfur powder to keep snakes away 🐍😁!

I will keep you all updated ❤️!

‼️ WE NEED FOOD ASAP FOR OUR DOGS 💔

May has started, and I’m really struggling to keep up with feeding the dogs, we don’t have anything for this months so far for food, bills from last month are still not paid and I’m hitting a dead end 😞… If I’m not able to buy food, what will our dogs eat 💔? Food is the biggest problem for me in this battle, that food keeps our dog running, it keeps their tummies full, I don’t want to watch them turn skinny so I’m begging all of you to help me keep pushing forward, every cent is helping me order food and keep our dogs well fed 🥹!

Please consider donating today, they are all waiting on you and only you 🙏!

It was a horrible start of the day, and I just calmed down to write this post 💔…

I hate writing posts like this, it’s killing me to inform all of you that this morning we have let Berta go, she crossed the rainbow 🌈 for good and she become an angel 🕊️!

Yesterday she was not able to get up on her legs, she started crying from pain and that’s when I decided that I need to let her go for good, we have also done echo on her liver and it showed that the tumors have become very large and her organs were starting to shud down 😭…

We have spent the night cuddling, I gave her all the love that I could in her last moments, and we have sent her to the other side with kisses in my arms 🕊️🌈…

Thank you everyone for the support and care for Berta, and big thank you to our partner Stray Dog Support Inc. that together with, we have tried everything to help her, but sometimes it’s not up to us, sometimes we need to let them go for good, and I’m happy that I have learned that this is part of our mission, as when I started facing this situation long ago, I tough that I can help the animals and they were suffering and dying in pains in front of my eyes, I just wanted them to live, but years ago I have learned what is the right way to help them and that I will face many situations like this sadly 💔…

Rest in peace my beautiful princess, you are now pain free and flying high over the rainbow with your friends on the other side 💔🕊️🌈🫀!

⭕️URGENT⭕️ - This will soon result in life threatening conditions, this will soon result in hundreds of euros for lifesaving treatment for Heart Worms and Leishmania, and why? Because we are not able to protect our dogs from parasites, the shelter is filled with flea and ticks, it is filled with sand flies and mosquitoes 🦟…

Sadly I can only watch, while they spread diseases from one to other of my dogs and in few months we will see the results 💔…

If we don’t act fast, to prevent that from happening, we will have dogs that will be left without therapy as those medications can be found only abroad, it’s hard to put hand on them, and it’s hard to afford over 400€ for a dog 😭…

We will watch them slowly suffering, while the disease will take their life so PLEASE help me afford total of 55 Bravecto cookies and Foresto collars to protect our dogs 🙏! One donation of 45€ will protect a dog for 8 months straight with Foresto, and 3 months with Bravecto but some of them need to get bravecto and the others foresto 💔!

Please everyone, please help us protect our dogs from this deadly diseases 🙏!

🎉 WE CELEBRATE A BIRTHDAY TODAY 🎉

And yes, 20 years ago on this day I Leonardo was born, from the first pictures that I remember from my life, I remember chasing ducks in my yard and playing with our dogs and pigeons, I was raised near all kind of animals and I’m so grateful for that ❤️! And over 10 years ago, I started caring for and helping stray animals, first with cats, then feeding dogs, volunteering at shelters and around 2017-18 I have opened my first page and I have started taking care of more and more animals in need, till today, when I have my shelter, our new land and hundreds of rescued animals 🥹! This year brought me to my first work at a vet clinic, making one of my dreams come true, working on helping animals in need and I’m so happy about that 🥰!

I’m very grateful to what I have accomplished till now, it is hard, it is painful, it is stressful, it is sad, it is happy, it is nice and bad but I will keep fighting till I have strength 😀! I’m very grateful and happy to have a community like all of you, I’m very grateful for my partners (that I’m making them go crazy sometimes🤪) that are here next to me, helping me everyday and pushing me forward, it’s hard for them, because it hard for me to keep up with everything but I love them and I couldn’t be here without them 🫀!

We were able to celebrate at the shelter today, I was able to buy treats for everyone at the shelter and they were so HAPPY about that 😍🤩!

Thank you everyone for your good wishes and support and love that you are spreading on this page, thank you for believing in me beside the haters that want my rescue down, I love you all and thank you again 🥰✨!

What started as a lifesaving surgery in Bulgaria 🇧🇬 , ended not happy for our Berta 💔…

Last Thursday thanks to the support of our partner Stray Dog Support Inc. we left Macedonia 🇲🇰 and started our way to Bulgaria 🇧🇬 where Berta was scheduled for cataract removal surgery on both eyese, but because it is 400km away, we couldn’t first take her for a specialist checkup, we have scheduled a checkup and if everything is good surgery in the same day 🏥.

Sadly the specialist did a checkup and she said that there is no need for surgery as the cataract is progressing very slowly and she will not go blind anytime soon, but we need to do checkups once a year 🥹! But I told them that the day before Berta had vomited and failed to stand up, so they said, leave her here, we will do checkups and we will find out what is wrong 🩺.

🔬The same evening I was shocked with the worst news, Berta will not live very long 💔… That broke my day, my hope, my belief and it hit me so hard as I was so positive that we are there to make sure she will have quality life, not that we will lose her 😭…
The clinic done analysis, and a CT scan, that showed metastatic parts in her lungs 🫁, in her liver and abdomen 💔… Her thorax is also collecting water that needs to be drained on few days, and when the time comes, when Berta stops eating and starts to suffer, I will need to make the decision that I hate the most in my rescue mission, and let her go for good 😭💔…

When I found her at a gas station, she was in so bad shape, half of the weight that she is now, her hair was so bad, she was not moving… She is such a lovely dog, she is always chasing after me, she loves to explore around even with her arthritis problems, but we can’t save everyone, so I will make sure to give Berta the best last days of her journey on this planet and she is home with me 🥹🩷!

Thank you everyone and we will keep you updated on our Girl 🌟!
