Aducerea animalelor de companie in UK dupa 1 Ianuarie 2012
Din 1 Ianuarie 2012, regulile pentru aducerea unui caine, pisici sau nevastruici in UK se vor schimba. Pana atunci, regulile in vigoare continua sa fie relevante pentru animalele de companie venind in UK. Mai multe informatii la: www.defra.gov.uk/pets
Nu amanati- informati-va despre legi cu multa vreme inaintea plecarii. Daca doriti sa va intoarceti in UK cu animalul de companie dupa o excursie in strainatate, sau intentionati sa va aduceti animalul in UK pentru prima oara, trebuie sa fiti informati despre schimbarile in legislatia pentru intrarea unui animal de companie in UK care intra in vigoare la 1 Ianuarie 2012.
Aveti responsabilitatea sa va asigurati ca animalul dumneavoastra indeplineste toate cerintele pentru a intra in UK. Asigurati-va ca toate formalitatile au fost effectuate in ordinea corecta, iar documentele sunt completate correct. Altfel, animalul dumneavoastra ar putea sa nu intre in tara, sau sa intre in carantina la intrarea in tara. Asta inseamna intarzieri si, in plus, va va costa bani.

PDL Dirty tricks - Using EEP logo to influence Romanian citizens to vote for mass stray slaughter
Below is an email I received today from Carmen Arsene
A respected animal welfare activist in Romania who amongst others has witnessed the dirty tricks now played by the PDL party of Romania. In short what PDL are doing is having postponed the vote to mass kill all strays in Romania is attempting to gain the support of the public by basically fraudulently using pro-euthanasia leaflets and questionnaires using the European Peoples party logo on them, to insinuate that the Romanian Governments horrific plans actually fall in-line with European legislation.
Being that Romania has only been part of the European Union for a relatively short period, many citizens within Romania are actually unaware of European legislation. And us fellow Europeans know, the EU is against mass killing of strays, it is in fact pro- sterilisation and responsible ownership. This is also the view shared by the European Peoples Party.
Yet here is Romania's political party PDL using the EPP logo and insinuating that mass killing of strays is what the European Union wants. This is underhanded, fraudulent and wholly wrong in every respect. With these types of tactics being used the strays do not stand a chance.
Why does the PDL want to Mass kill strays? Because it is big business,in fact just catching and storing the dogs in what are laughingly called shelters brings in over 500 million Euros a year. And because killing of strays simply does not work, in fact makes the situation worse, by bringing in this law they are securing their megabuck enterprise by ensuring that millions of fresh victims are born every year rather than mass sterilisation that would stop those potential victims from ever being born!

Correspondence from Carmen Arsene
Dear all,
Opposition/disapproval from Romanian Parliament of the parties PSD and PNL, the opposition of some colleagues party (PD-L) and of the coalition, resulted in PL 912 for dog management (turned into mass killing by PD-L amendments) don’t go through, such as the party in power, meaning PD-L, has every time decided the vote to be postponed. That it is happened in October 18 when, realizing that if they would vote, the project would fail, PD-L has decided to postpone the debate (for 2 November)
Under the title "Bucurestiul fara maidanezi" (Bucharest with no stray dogs), 10 days ago, PD-L has launched in Bucharest, a dirty incredible campaign and unprecedented in the history of Romania, for MASS KILLING OF DOGS, which stretches for several days across the country (especially in areas where the mayors are PD-L), under the title "Elibereaza-ti orasul" ("Clear out your town"):
- lay-out tents where signatures pro killing are collected
- people studded on all subway stations, in markets and crowded areas, sharing flyers
- they illegal use the state institutions (General Inspectorate schools, the Romanian Post), by which the flyers are distributed and signatures are collected. The people do not receive pension, unemployment wages, if they do not sign on the list brought by the postman
- the flyers (two types) include:
I. populist slogans, false information aiming arousing people's aggressivity against stray dogs wishing thus, as outraged citizens finally opt for the death of dogs
- false information that creates the impression that "PDL law" requires human management of stray dogs by sterilization, oral information given by representatives of the PD-L are the collecting signatures is for sterilization and / or sheltering, so that under deceitful, false slogans, by manipulating images, most of the citizens who signed the lists do not accept under any circumstances euthanasia as a method of management of stray dogs and they don’t know they actually signed for killing dogs
- To create a favorable image and to create the illusion in the eyes of the signatories that this campaign would be in line with EU policies, PDL has associated its image with the EPP - European People's Party (whose Membership is) to create the impression their criminal action against street dogs is agreed by the EPP. Thus, the header of lists where the signatures are collected contains EPP logo. Public opinion from Romania, NGOs, the great mass of animal lovers are outraged that EPP is part of this mendacious campaign that instigates to murder.
(attachment: PD-L tent; lists with signatures where EPP logo is; I dis not attach the flyers as they are in Romanian (if you would like please, let me know)
If mass killing of over 10 years did not get any result in the street so why this fight for a failed method??
The sustained fight in which PD-L sends in the street an entire artillery with an impressive ammunition, lists, flyers a.s.o to determine people, by false slogans, by manipulating text and images, is a new indisputable evidence of a mega business with killing dogs:
- The local authorities (and those behind them) allocate huge budgets - just on paper, reporting fictive consumption for sheltering, feeding, sterilization, identification, euthanasia, incineration - ‘legal’ frauds on public money
- profits by selling the dog food and veterinary medicines, that are supposed to be used for the stray dogs
- dog catchers who, to not take the stray dogs protected by the people, require a "protection fee" (around 25 Euro/dog)
- costs of incineration at PROTAN (a controversial company) per kg dead body and the transport for dogs is very expensive
The stray dogs, that incur the state no costs to live on street, are hunted by another type of mafia. Their killing, starvation in the town-halls extermination camps bring profits to a “fat” business up to 500 millions Euro just in the first stage!
Please, send your protest, contact (email, fax, phone) EPP - European People's Party to show your indignation for their image association (probably EPP does not even know about it) with the dog killing campaign launched by its member-party, PD-L (Democratic Liberal Party) in Romania.
Thank you.
Sincerely
Carmen Arsene

To Whom it may concern
Reference: Romanian Political Party PDL fraudulently using your party’s logo to gain votes for the mass killing of strays
I was horrified to recently learn that the above mentioned party has taken to the streets of Romania distributing propaganda to the citizens of various regions and are purporting your parties logo to endorse the amendment to the management of strays law in Romania, and in turn attempting to persuade those same citizens that this is what the European Union/Parliament also endorses.
I am sure you are aware that Dog killing is a huge business in Romania and the techniques that are applied to kill and store the animals caught are beyond barbaric and certainly not in-line with European standards nor does your party who represents people like myself within the EU endorse or consider this an effective method of stray management.
I urgently request that today you act upon this matter, and you together with other members of your party
- Demand an immediate withdrawal of your logo being used in such a fraudulent and wholly wrongful manner, also
- Demand an immediate public apology by the PDL party via various media outlets including Romanian News stations and the regional newspapers.
I hope that you will take on board the above and act appropriately as requested. The PDL by using your logo is also falsifying my view as a citizen of Europe, someone who your party represents within the European Parliament.
I would also like to draw your attention to the fact that Romania nationally and regionally is now under official investigation by the European commission for wrongful mismanagement of funds in regards to their handling of stray dog management as can be confirmed by Petition No. 0595/2011 lodged and accepted by the European commission earlier this month. I am sure that you would agree that the fact that this investigation is taking place this proves beyond any doubt that the EU does not agree with the way Romania is handling its stray problem and in turn any European reference within the PDL propaganda is wholly and deliberately fraudulent.

As I am sure you are aware as an active political parliamentary member of the European Union, that Millions of European citizens across the member states are more than aware of Romania's techniques that are being applied to kill and store the animals caught, and agree that they are beyond barbaric and certainly not in-line with European standards nor does the EEP who represents people like myself within the EU endorse or consider this an effective method of stray management.
I urgently request that today you act upon this matter and you demand members of the PDL party
- Immediately withdraw the EEP logo from all propaganda of any kind, as it is being used in such a fraudulent and wholly wrongful manner without the EEP's consent or knowledge
- An immediate public apology by the PDL party via various media outlets including Romanian News stations and the regional newspapers is made.
I hope that you will take on board the above and act appropriately as requested. The PDL by using the EEP's logo is also falsifying my view as a citizen of Europe, someone who that same party represents within the European Parliament.
Considering Romania’s public image is most certainly at an all time low ad fast becoming one of the most NOT TO GO tourist hotspots because of the barbaric way you treat your animals, I would advise that the PDL parties fraudulent and manipulative use of the EEP's logo and in turn the European Unions view will do more harm than good in your hopes of positive recognition within the European member states.

Fill a box with free samples of pet foods for our Aid Missions
There are many pet food companies that send free samples of their products to you. Today for instance I recieved a free sample box from Bakers which contained a days portion of their Bakers Meaty Balls and also a pack of 2 Bakers dental sticks. This I am donating towards the food donations for our forthcoming Aid Mission.
So all you would have to do, is say get 10 or more family members or friends to send apply for free sample packs and when they all arrive just collect them all, put them in a box and post off to us, or if you are close to one of our team members we will collect, or you could just find a whole load of companies that do this, and you could fill a box on your own....Some links below have been added below to start you off.

Give RAA a helping paw to help them reach Romania
As the majority of you know, the Romania Animal Aid team are working hard to fill Big Bertha to travel to Romania on 23rd Romania laden with aid to distribute to the strays on the streets and also to groups who need help caring for the animals they have rescued and are caring for...
Whilst Big Bertha is filling up with aid, she will also need filling up with Diesel.
...This is our appeal for this particular part of the aid mission...
From London to Bucharest it is approx 1301 miles (2094 kilometers)
We will be travelling much further than this as we will be travelling around Romania delivering aid and saving lives. We are hoping that you would be able to help Big Bertha on her way...
Please help us link the paw print in London to the paw print in Romania. It would take just 260 paw prints to get Big Bertha with her precious aid to her first stop Bucharest....
For every £5 donated we will place a paw on the map.....We only have 2 weeks to do this, but we know we can rely on our supporters and animal lovers out there, to get Big Bertha where she needs to go.
Please donate just £5 today and give us a helping paw

Romania Animal Aid Sept Aid Mission to Romania Appeal
In July 2011 our team visited Romania on a week long mission to deliver aid to where it was needed, met with mayors and decision makers, rescued animals left at the roadside..the list goes on and on. During our visit one thing was clearly obvious, it was no good us just doing one aid mission, or two or three, but regular aid missions needed to be organised on at least a bi monthly basis. So we made our minds up, bought a van,and are now planning Berthas (the RAA van pet name) first journey to Romania. The Aid mission will kick off on 22nd September.
The van that we have bought and customising to Defra standards will also be doubling as so many other things, we will be delivering aid, applying first aid at the roadside, rescueing injured and abused animals as well as delivering donations to those that need it the most. We need so many items to fill that van every other month, we simply are unable to do this alone...We need your help.
Please note we will be driving on route to Romania through France, then onto Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, and finally, Romania. So we can arrrange collection points with our European friends so they can help with donations on route as well.
There are two ways you can help with this appeal, you can donate items or funds to buy items needed.
The items that we need are listed below as well as a justgiving link and paypal link for you to donate monies if you are unable to help with items but still want to help with the appeal.
We urgently need your help, and hope that in some way you can help fill Bertha so she can deliver her precious donations to those who are in such despetare need. Please contact us to arrange collection or for delivery address.
MEDICAL SUPPLIES - These will be used to apply at the scene of where an injured animal is found or to treat an ongoing problem.
FOOD - This will be distributed to the strays we encounter as well as given to those in need
Please note all food donations must be sealed and within expiry date
Miscellaneous Items - These items are desperately needed, some will be used at the roadside by us or given to individuals who rescue and care for animals in Romania but simply cannot afford to buy them.
MONIETARY DONATIONS - There are a number of ways you can donate to this appeal. Please choose your preferred method of payment and click on the logo to be forwardeed to that site
HAVE A DOG/CAT NEEDS TRANSPORT?
If you are an individual or a group who has a dog/cat ready (fully vaccinated and passported) to be transported to one of the countries we will be passing back through on route to the UK. We are more than happy to transport them and drop them off with their adopter for you. We would be asking for a monietary donation for this as this will then help towards the aid missions fuel costs to and from Romania. There are 5 places available.

The Romanian Strays Last Stand - We can't let them down
This really is the Romanian Strays last stand. In a few weeks the Romanian Government will be pushing through a proposal that will allow the mayor of each municipality to decide or not to commit mass genocide of all strays in his/her region. Whether the strays are on the streets or within a public shelter.
We all know the vile and horrific methods used to kill these animals. This is normally the cheapest but not most effective ways. From posioning,to being beaten with a metal bar, puppies heads being smashed over and over against the nearest concrete wall to litterally being kicked and punched to death. There are even known cases of dogs being stunned then thrown alive into crematorium ovens and burnt to death.
We simply cannot allow this to continue, we cannot allow a free for all on these defencless animals. The animal rights laws are already being ignored and thwarted across Romania by the authorities, this amended law will mean there will be no legal repercussions on the cruelty that will follow if this proposal is allowed to take hold in Romania.
By simply following the instructions from each of the sections on our action alert, you will be the voice of the defencless, you will be saying NO to this horrific proposal. But...you must act now, time is running out.

How do you put animals lives in danger and help produce more strays? By scamming a respected animal welfare organisation and charity
Yesterday I was contacted by Viktor from Lets Adopt. Now we all know this organisation and the amazing work they do around the globe to help rescue,care for and re home animals who have been victims of abuse,cruelty or simply abandoned on our city streets.The reason he contacted me, was to enquire why I had set up a chip in fund using his organisations name! I was as baffled as he was. As part of the fund-raising team at Romania Animal Aid,sometimes we are asked to set up an emergency donation fund for other organisations just like our charity did for the Danube Delta Horses on behalf of Gia. In regards to Lets Adopt this was not the case, so I was as confused as Viktor was.
Thankfully as Viktor knows me, our charity , and what type of person I am. Rather than go straight to his legal team to drag me through the courts which he quite rightly could have done, he checked with me first as was sure there was a misunderstanding or something similar.
I immediately checked the link he had sent me,and he was quite correct. In black and white on that page it clearly showed someone had raised nearly £6000 using his organisations name. This person however was not me, nor our charity or anyone linked to us. In fact the only link to myself or our charity was on the right hand column, where it just shows updates of most read this week. Our AFRA Newsletter was at the top, and so I realised , and understood how Viktor had mistakenly linked this page to us.
Of course the listings in the right hand column have nothing to do with the cause it is shown on, it is just advertising to points of interest for other cause members. However I was very glad that Viktor had contacted me about this. You see, this is not the first time this person, this organisation has done such a thing.
Using trusted and bona_fide organisations and charities names such as Lets Adopt to influence people to donate to that cause. This organisation had done the same to our charity, we found this out months before. Using our charities name Romania Animal Aid, to influence people to donate over £300
Now when confronted by us, there were many discrepancies in this persons excuse for wrongfully using our charities name. The information on that causes page very specifically influenced detonators to believe they were giving to our charity helping us to continue our much needed work...This was not , nor ever was the case!
The wording on the cause set up using Lets Adopt name deliberately influences people to think that their money is going towards Lets Adopts amazing work...It is not nor ever was the case!
Now setting aside what many including no doubt the legal authorities would class as deliberate deception and fraud that this person/organisation has committed. I want you to understand the impact that stealing (because that’s exactly what it is) over £6,300.00 from two charities has done.
Check out Lets adopt website, they work so very hard to raise funds (which in this current climate is not easy) to rescue,care for,feed,treat and re-home animals who have gone through the worst kind of hell any creature has had to suffer. Lets adopt gives animals the chance, normally for the first time in their little lives a chance to know love,care,people who will cuddle them, people who will open their homes to them forever. Lets adopt makes these animals dreams come true.
Romania Animal Aid,does similar work to Lets Adopt but on a smaller scale and focuses on providing this care,treatment and re-homing on animals in Romania.
If we were to say for rescue,treatment,care,food and finally transport costs for each individual animal we and Lets Adopt rescues and re homed, it will cost us for each animal approx £700. This of course is a ball park figure, if an individual animal has worse injuries than another animal we rescue of course it will cost more, and it follows if an animal is a little healthier than another, it will cost a little less.
Romania Animal Aid also jointly funds along with Romania Animal Rescue regular spay and neuter clinics, costing us approx £20 for each animal treated.
IF the money, over £6,300.00 had gone to the organisation and charity these people thought their money was going to, this is what that money would have achieved:
Lets Adopt and Romania Animal Aid would have been able between us to rescue 9 -10 Animals, they would have been rescued,treated, cared for and re-homed.
In regards to the £300+ that was raised in our charities name but did not, nor ever has been given to our charity,if we had received that money and for instance used this towards our spay and neuter clinics, right now there would be over 15 dogs in Romania spayed and neutered. Because these 15+ dogs haven’t been spayed or neutered, lets look at the devastating affects of this shall we?
Each bitch in a year has the capability of producing 4 litters
Each Litter on average contains 6 pups=24 pups
Each litter on average will have 4 females within that litter
Each female puppy by the age of 1 year, will be producing her own litters
Based on an average bitch breeding 4 times a year, those 4 female pups themselves would have produced=96 puppies....and from there the cycle continues. And because of Romania’s lack of spay and neuter programmes, from a single bitch not being spayed, or a dog not being neutered within a couple of years the puppies that have been produced by that single dog/bitch not being treated by Romania Animal Aid will run into hundreds of unwanted puppies being produced.
But remember, Romania Animal Aid was deprived of the ability to spay and neuter over 15+ dogs. So you are now looking at hundreds of puppies and dogs right now who are on the streets or in the slaughter houses of Romania, going through the most horrific abuse and torture... all because of one persons vile and disgusting deception.
On a larger scale, think about how this has increased the strain, not just on our charity and Lets adopt,but all the other charities and NGO's battling to keep stray numbers down and at the same time, treat the animals who are the very real victims of abuse,cruelty and neglect.
There is the most horrific blood bath going on in Romania right now as we all know, amongst that blood bath will be the 150 dogs, the 13 animals that Lets Adopt and Romania Animal Aid could not reach...Not because because we didn’t want to, but because we simply were not able to, because someone took from us over £6,300+. The £6,300+ that right now, would have saved thousands of lives.
Now when you see for yourselves who it was that did this to Lets Adopt and our charity,to those hundreds of animals that neither of us were able, or are able to save... trust me, you will be very surprised...
And as if this wasn’t horrific enough, this alleged private shelter that this person/organisation runs has used money previously donated supposedly towards maintenance of the dog shelters to infact fix up their own home (increasing its value), has bought themselves expensive new cars to run around town in ( Car registered in their name not the organisations) with the money that had been donated towards the specific care of rescued animals.
It is of course up to you if you wish to continue donating to the causes that person, that organistion sets up. All I ask, is to bare in mind , before you click that donate button, have a thought for the hundreds of animals, this very day that Lets Adopt and Romania Animal Aid could not rescue and save because we were denied those funds by that person, that organisation you are considering donating to.
Those same animals, who this very day are more than likely suffering abuse,cruelty,starvation,rape, burnt alive,beaten....the list sadly goes on...
All because Lets Adopt and Romania Animal Aid could not afford to reach them in time.
Considering the above, it will sicken you even more to learn the catchphrase that person, that organisation has used to attract potential donations to that causes page, the honey in which to catch the flies....The catchphrase "SPAY MEANS LESS STRAYS"
To learn more about other frauds that organisation has been caught out on, please click here
In the meantime, if you would like to find out more or would like to donate to an organisation and charity that does actually spend their funds on animals and makes a difference in animals lives each year, that are both battle everyday to find the funds to carry on their work,that do not have to rely on other organisations or charities good names as we have earned that ourselves through our tireless work and proven track record..Please check out Romania Animal Aid and Lets Adopt Website.
FROM A TRUSTED SOURCE
We have just recieved this from a trusted source. What you are about to read is a transcription of an interview done with someone who knows only too well what the person and organisation who did this to our charity and Lets Adopt is capable of. The video will be uploaded shortly.
In 2007, ROLDA stopped supplying food or any help to Mr. Cenac’s dogs in Galati without any notice. They did not break their contract with him or the supplier of dog food, but simply refused to pay any of the bills they were obligated to pay, and Dana Costin said Mr. Cenac is “just a crazy old man”.
Romania Animal Rescue was forced to step in and care for these 250 dogs as best we could. Thank goodness we now have a lot of support for Mr. Cenac’s dogs from our friends in Holland, who were also screwed over by Dana Costin.
I did an interview on tape with Mr. Cenac. This is what he said (translated by Claudiu Iosim of Animed Arad)
Here is the translation of what he said:
Mr Cenac to Nancy:
“I’m very glad to meet with you and sorry you found me upset. I’m upset with the fact that our relationship with Dana deteriorated. For a while, she had been paying her debts according to our agreement. She had been paying for the food for the dogs, until November (2006). Then she turned the ROLDA shelter into a pension (boarding facility) and private business for people on holiday. At this time she stopped paying the bills. Approximately $500 (still owed). She told me she doesn’t owe that money and it’s my personal debt. She told me to order the food, etc., as a donation from ROLDA, and then I ordered the food and she refused to pay the bill saying it was my problem, not hers.”
Marian: “ This is right?”
Mr. Cenac pulls out the bills with ROLDA’s name on them for Nancy to see. He pays his own money for these bills, and cannot afford to pay this. Shows a bill from February 14.
THE NEXT DAY:
NEXT DAY – we go with Mr. Cenac to pay the ROLDA bills thru RAR, and make a contract with the food provider.
I came in on this conversation with Marian and Mr. Cenac a bit late, so I missed filming some information…..but this is what I did get…….
Mr. Cenac to Nancy:
“She (Dana) told me she has to leave the dogs in my care because she couldn’t get to her shelter due to the weather.
Question-Marian: “Dana gave you 22 puppies?”
Answer-Mr. Cenac: Yes, 22 puppies.
Mr. Cenac:
“It was dark and I couldn’t see them well. I felt them and they were small. When I returned in the morning I realized how terrible the situation was. 3 of them were dead. I could smell the smell specific to parvo.
I tried to treat them for parvo with Dr. Gheorghita (Dr. Ileana). It was impossible to cure the ones that were sick. Out of 22, only 1 survived. I had 30 other puppies at my shelter as well, and they also died as well. I had 51 puppies die.
You can confirm this with Dr. Ileana – the puppies had many viruses – not just parvo. Pulmonary viruses, hepatitis. Most of them had their eyes turn blue, then went blind. We didn’t know what to treat them against. Their immune systems were gone.
I called Dana and told her the puppies are dying. Dana told me she took the puppies from Braila and it wasn’t her fault she got puppies like this. I told her this is not possible all 22 puppies are sick. 4 or 5 may be sick – but not 22. This means she must have taken the puppies from where all the dogs are sick, and where else could this be but her home (ROLDA shelter) because she works with sick animals. She works with sick animals, and I didn’t think they could have come from Braila. Being that is her (Dana) line of work, all of them were from her shelter, not Braila. Therefore all animals must be sick at ROLDA.
Then I found her leaflets in pet shops saying she has a boarding facility. Meanwhile, someone went there to take a dog for boarding at ROLDA, and that person told me that there were 20 dogs in Dana’s care at ROLDA, and I know that Dana has about 60 dogs, so I believe the puppies were from Dana’s shelter. So when Dana saw they were sick, she brought them to me, and I had 2 months of nightmares. Both me and Dr. Ileana had this nightmare and I kept going back to Dr. Ileana to ask how to treat them. I was very overwhelmed – I lost many dogs I loved. Dana is mean to have done this. I would have had the sick dogs euthanized.
This nightmare, besides all the dogs dying, the municipality contract says ALL dogs would have to be killed. I was scared someone from the city would come and kill ALL the dogs at my shelter. Dana was cruel to do this…..now 52 dogs were dead and others may have to be destroyed. I kept everything hidden from authorities.
A lady came to tell me that she brought 2 puppies to ROLDA. When she (the lady) asked about them later, Dana said one had been adopted and the other had run away. I asked the lady for a description of the dogs – a Pekingnese (sic) with crooked legs was one of them. I asked if this dog was a female, and the lady said “yes”. I told the lady the dog had died in my shelter. So this way it was confirmed to me that the puppies were brought from the ROLDA shelter.
Dana is focusing on this pension. I don’t know how successful that is because I heard she charges 19 Euro / day. That’s too much – if someone goes to Spain for 3 or 4 months to work – how much do they have to pay? So they have to pay all the money they earned for boarding?
This is all I have to say: that her interest in the city shelter has ended. She shouldn’t post on the internet that she is caring for 250 dogs. Dana hired her boyfriend to work for ROLDA. She took him out of his job at a chemical plant. Dana’s interest in sick and stray animals is zero.”
Marian translates into English for Nancy
Then we went to pay the bills ROLDA owed for food for the city dogs

UPDATE
We have recieved the following message from Viktor and he asked that we add this to the blog, which of course we are more than happy to do.
UPDATE, On Monday 4 of July we received the following statement from Let's Adopt:
Upon investigation of the issue we contacted Dana Costin and politely but firmly requested to close the Cause using our name and logo. She did this immediately. We also requested a clarification on the issue of any money that may have been raised using our name. The amount was extremely minimal and we have decided not to pursue the matter further.
We wishes all charities worked in Romanian rescue learned to work together for the good of the animals. So much more could be done that way.
Kind regards

We have recieved the following message from Viktor and he asked that we add this to the blog, which of course we are more than happy to do.
UPDATE, On Monday 4 of July we received the following statement from Let's Adopt:
Upon investigation of the issue we contacted Dana Costin and politely but firmly requested to close the Cause using our name and logo. She did this immediately. We also requested a clarification on the issue of any money that may have been raised using our name. The amount was extremely minimal and we have decided not to pursue the matter further.
We wishes all charities worked in Romanian rescue learned to work together for the good of the animals. So much more could be done that way.
Kind regards

Please help little Rascal and his family escape Romania and enter a world of safety and love
There are many good souls in Romania who are in desperate need of our help here in the west. They rescue and feed the dogs they find,hide them away from authorities and do what they can to get these innocent animals out of Romania and into safety where they no longer will be under threat of torture, abuse,starvation and poison.
One such person is Silvia, she found a small mummy dog and her litter of tearaways in a forest and her heart simply could not leave them there. She took them home with her where they now play with 6 other puppies that she found abandoned,whose mother no doubt had come to a violent end.
We heard Silvia’s pleas to help this small family and the other puppies she is watching over and pledged to help that family escape what will be (especially with the new law looming this week) certain horrific death.
Food,vaccines,chips,passports,transport all will cost money, and this is where we need your help,or rather those little furry mischief makers with waggy tails and big round eyes need your help.
We have already put into place (along with other wonderful people in the network) a safe secure location outside of Romania where the doggies will be able to safely stay until they are adopted. This will happen in approx 3 weeks time.
But that is then, and this is now,between now and then the puppies and their mummy need food,vaccines,chips,passports etc. All this is what we are right now raising money for.
If by a miracle this appeal collects more money than is needed (we are talking in thousands here) then this will allow us to do the same for other dogs,other furry families and to help continue the work we already do in Romania.
So please, dig deep,I know times are hard for all of us but I guarantee without ours and your help,times will be much harder for princess, rascal,daisy and the rest of thier family and adopted brothers and sisters
We will be keeping a log of their ongoing story,you can read for yourself how this little family is getting along. when they are safe and sound outside of Romania,we will add them to our Happy endings page..until then you can find their log here
