Spay and Neuter for 3,000 dogs in Romania

Spayathons Making a Difference!

Ms. Maria and her special girl

Greetings Dear Supporters and Friends,

Our work has continued to humanely control unwanted animal births in Romania. The COVID 19 virus has had a negative impact on the donations we receive for this work, but we trust that this will change. The animals and the impoverished guardians and rescuers who love them depend on our ongoing work that is changing communities for the better. Through our years of education and hard work, people understand the importance of spay and neuter which is a major shift from when we first began these programs in 2004.

RAR is now over 83,000 spays and neuters of dogs and cats, all thanks to donors support. Our charity has trained other vets via the Veterinary Training Program so that they can return to their communities and provide highly skilled surgeries for the animals.

Our featured story is Ms. Maria who lives in Piteasca Village where the Center of Hope is located. She is 90 years old. Her sweet dog means the world to her, and after yet another litter of 6 puppies, Dr. Aurelian was able to convince her to have her dog spayed. Maria cried tears of joy when she received her healthy girl back from surgery.

This summer we have been spaying/neutering in villages near Campina, those near the Center of Hope Ilfov Bucharest, and at Family Vet in the city of Craiova.

In August we will have a new campaign for Calarasi villages, and return once again to a community near Timisoara to hold a campaign for 200 spays and neuters.

This work is possible thanks to YOU, OUR WISE DONORS who know that compassion begins with humane animal control.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Spay Neuter for 3000 dogs in Romania report by Nancy Janes, President, CEO and Founder

By Nancy Janes | Project Leader

Dear Friends,

During this extremely stressful time, our focus continues to be on helping the most vulnerable. For us, these are the animals who still need our veterinary help and care.

The vet clinics have been set up for social distancing so that the animals still receive help without endangering our vets and nurses. As the work continues, so does our need for help from our donors. Thank you for your continued support!

Romania Animal Rescue has it's first documentary! Please find it here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/B-op61wk1KA

This half hour film will introduce you to some of the work we do: the who, what, where, when, why

Also, we are pleased to announce that we have surpassed the 80,000 spay and neuter milestone! As of March 1, RAR has spayed and neutered 80,876 animals!

This incredible work has seen to it that millions have not been born to suffer a miserable life. Thanks to our marvelous supporters!

There is a heavily traveled road outside of Bucharest where people often dump dogs and puppies. Perhaps people are unaware that the Center of Hope offers free spay and neuter (as our donations allow).....so a banner was placed in the area! "Why dump me in the forest to die of hunger and thirst? Spay my mother, it's free!"

The Spay Shuttle travels to remote villages and receives animals for transport to the Center of Hope for spay/neuter and veterinary treatment, later returning the animals to their caregivers. HOPE spaymobile travels to the yards of guardians and shelters who have numerous dogs, supplying on the spot spay and neuter. Meanwhile, at the Center of Hope Bucharest and Family Vet Craiova, the lifesaving spay and neuter continues at the clinics. Only with donations can we do this hard yet vital work. Thank you for your ongoing support.

In other news, we are currently having new education books and a coloring book translated, thanks to Lakes Animal Friendship who loaned us their books to use. These will enhance our outreach to the communities and children to teach animal welfare.

All of us at Romania Animal Rescue wish you and your loved ones the very best, stay safe and stay healthy.

Thank you for helping the animals from the poor country of Romania.

Sincerely,

Nancy Janes

Our Work Continues

Dear Friends,

Thank you for your support during this extremely difficult time. Our work in Romania continues throughout this crisis, as the animals still need our help.

We have been extremely busy in the past three months. Our first documentary was released in early January. This half hour film will show you some of the work we do and introduce you to some of the team. Please view it here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/B-op61wk1KA

In other news, we are proud to announce that RAR has reached a milestone in the number of spays and neuters. As of March 1, we are over 80,000 spays and neuters. 80,876 to be precise. This amazing accomplishment is the result of the continued support we receive for our work from fabulous donors. Thank You!

There is a busy road that leads to the train station. People abandon dogs in that area, usually puppies, in heat females, or pregnant dogs. Therefore, we posted a banner on the road that reads "Why do you dump me in the forest? To die of thirst and hunger! Spay my mother, it's free! 0749 NEUTER" ( phone number for the Center of Hope). As long as we can continue to get donations, we can continue to provide this service to save these poor animals.

The activities of reaching out to rural communities has continued during a mild winter. The Spay Shuttle continued to pick up and transfer animals for spay and neuter at Center of Hope. HOPE spaymobile provided on sight spays and neuters for yards and shelters. Center of Hope Bucharest and Family Vet Craiova were receiving patients. Lots of work, lots of compassion.

We are currently getting a new animal welfare book and coloring book translated from English into Romanian. These books were gifted to us to use by Lakes Animal Friendship whose founders Valerie and Alistair wrote and designed the books. Crayons have been shipped to Romania for the children.

We hope you are well and staying healthy. This current crisis will pass. The animals are eternally grateful for your support for this charity's work.

THANK YOU DEAR SUPPORTERS
