Each of them
got a second chance

For years, Pirat was tied on a very short chain among agricultural machinery. When the foundation arrived, it turned out that the dog had lost an eye after injuring himself on sharp sheet metal. He was removed with police assistance. He underwent eye-socket surgery, castration, tumour treatment and a long recovery. The animal-abuse case went to court and ended with a conviction.

Śnieżynka came under the foundation’s care after an intervention. She had most likely been hit by a car. This small female dog, weighing less than 10 kg, had a serious spinal injury, necrosis of the hind paw and pyometra. She needed stabilisation of the Th11/Th12 section, paw surgery and sterilisation. The treatment was costly, but thanks to the fundraiser the full amount was raised.

Count Dracula’s condition deteriorated rapidly — he stopped eating, became weak and required urgent diagnostics. The clinic confirmed babesiosis. The results were very worrying: a dramatically low platelet count, dark urine and an enlarged spleen. This disease can kill a dog in a very short time, so the foundation immediately launched a fundraiser for treatment.
