Help Us Save Two Dogs from Life Sentence in a Polish Shelter

Hi friends,

After recently losing our beloved Rupert — who spent 12 miserable years in a Polish shelter before finally finding his way home to us. Our hearts are shattered, but what devastates us even more is knowing that countless other dogs remain trapped in the same cruel system Rupert endured for so long.

Polish animal shelters are truly hellish (especially in remote locations). Dogs live 24/7 in outdoor cages, exposed to freezing winters (often well below zero), living on concrete floors. Fed anything cheap, often buckwheat and pasta. Some don’t survive such conditions. There are only 2 part time volunteers in this particular shelter so unable to give more than an occasional time in a grass enclosure. The shelter is full of dogs who spent their whole lives there — just like Rupert did — without any chance for a home.

Please help us save Leo and Abbie. They both spent many years there, and now that Leo turned 13, he has been losing his eyesight, making it virtually impossible to be rehomed. Abbie hasn’t had much luck either. Despite being younger and having a gentle, loving personality, she’s been completely overlooked. She was found as a stray mother with a litter of puppies — all of whom were adopted. Abbie was left behind, forgotten… And has been waiting for years.

We can really change their lives together.

Please help us fundraise in time for the next transport (June 17th) so they don’t need to spend a single additional day in this horrible place. They have a foster waiting and will be looking for forever homes once in the UK.
