“VAMPIRE SHELTER”

________________________

- Emergency Raid to Rescue Survivors-

Yesterday, our heroic rescuers and police raided a dark shelter run by a pair of real-life vampires who preyed upon the vulnerable caged animals. Rarely showing their faces at the shelter during daylight hours, the two shelter owners left the animals to stand in their own excrement, fighting over food, with water or sufficient protection from harsh weather – all while they pocketed donations sent for the animals.

We loaded the first group of 41 dogs onto a series of rescue vans. Today we are back on site to gather more of the 136 dogs as well as a few cats and two ponies. We are working with a small group of trusted, reputable Romanian rescuers who are making space for these new arrivals despite already having a full house. Every animal will receive food, water and care during the ongoing mission to get them all to safety.

Because of our deep regard for our supporters, we scrutinize every rescue center asking for charitable support. We first grew suspicious that something was wrong at this so-called animal shelter when the women running it repeatedly asked us for financial support but were evasive about providing live videos, receipts and veterinary certificates. We started to dig into the truth behind the façade and are shocked by what we’ve found.

Rescuer Mihaela D. described “one meter of feces with dogs on top of it, starving without water and some injured”. She felt sick as she began the journey back to her city with a vehicle full of dogs. Apparently, many people in the local community have known of this place for years but were afraid to get involved. That’s why we have spent the past 30 days gearing up for this raid and lining up soft places for the animals to land.

The shelter is being run by two women, a mother and daughter. We sent a brave and strong volunteer inspector Claudia F. who pushed her way onto the shelter grounds despite the women trying to block her at the gate. Besides the incredible filth on the grounds, lack of drinking water and total disrepair, the dogs themselves told us what is happening there. The barked wildly at the shelter owners as if they were intruders. This stands in contrast to any normal rescue center where dogs compete excitedly for attention from humans.

Claudia returned several times to gather evidence, remove a few of the most desperate animals and bring food and water to all. We also brought a farrier in because the ponies’ hooves were so long that they could barely walk. On each encounter, the shelter owners appeared intoxicated and would follow Claudia from kennel to kennel and harass her as she worked. They would scream at each other and ask for money.

The extensive veterinary care, food, sheltering, spay/neuter and adoption preparations for all these animals is expected to rise into the thousands – which we do not have. We must also pursue a legal case to stop these women from collecting more animals.

These animals have nowhere else to go. Harmony Fund brings in the light they probably thought would never shine again. This winter the animals will not be hungry. They will not freeze. They will not be forgotten.

Animal Rescue Chase

The Great Animal Rescue Chase celebrates the art of animal rescue with a worldwide race to rescue one million. It’s a free event, open to all, and is perhaps the only global animal rescue event aimed at helping any animal in distress, anywhere in the world. Our ambition is to create a culture of enthusiasm and pride in animal activism. We believe in teaching, by example, that there is a hero in each of us just waiting to be unleashed. Empowered animal lovers can not only save lives, but build the momentum for powerful animal welfare reform.
