Greetings Friends and Supporters,
We wish you well during this upcoming Fall season. Things have been extremely busy at Center of Hope (COH) hospital Bucharest area and Family Vet Craiova clinic. Patients are arriving every day who are in desperate need of help. Here are a few of their stories:
*Job was taken by our rescuer Mr. Stefan (aka the Saint). Rescued from the streets, this old, bald skinny boy was in terrible shape. Painful bones, a body full of scabies, exhausted by dehydration and broken by grief. He arrived at Center of Hope hospital and was treated treated under the Homeless Animals Hospital project thanks to our supporters. He remained at COH for over a month. Traces of a chain that are marked on his neck. Yes this boy had a lot to endure.....but despite everything he kept wagging his tail endlessly. And now he has every reason to do so. Our wonderful Jane in Maine is adopting him. He left today (Tuesday September 17) to go to his forever loving home where he will live out the final years of his life as a beloved family member.
*We were contacted by people on Facebook asking for help for a dog wandering in a field with a plastic bottle on its head. The location was a couple hours away, however our amazing vet tech Ovidiu was able to reach her and after much patience and many trials he was able to tranquilize this poor stray and remove the bottle from her head. She is severely traumatized, and we found out that this bottle had been on her head since last December. She is now at Center of Hope and has recovered from her physical wounds with treatment by Homeless Animal Hospital project supporters. She is still at COH and looking for a home with an understanding family who will give her compassion and trust in humans.
*We named her Teddy Bear. A rescuer called us in desperate need having found her and her dead sibling in a hole. Teddy Bear was infested with fleas and severly anemic. She needed blood transfusions to live. Thanks to Homeless Animal Hospital project donors she arrived at COH. She was put into isolation to prevent her from succumbing to parvo, and treated with blood transfusions and for internal and external parasites. And now Teddy Bear has a loving home. Isn't she precious?
