The famous “3-legged dog” is with us

Posted on 20 May 2011

Gerri in the article with her horribly injured paw;Gerri trying to walk in Bogrov after her amputation

We would like to set some questions clear about the dog with the badly injured leg, published yesterday in a compassionate article written by Mila Vacheva – 24 chasa daily.The article tells about a dog with a destroyed front paw and the lack of care for the dogs of the street. As we have told you before – we often don’t have the time to tell you about the many things going on in Animal Rescue Sofia. There are good news for everyone who went looking for the injured animal in the Sofia centre:

The dog from the article we call Gerri, a female of about 10 years old, has been rescued by us about 10 days ago. She was really in a horrifying condition, but managed to give Svetlio and Nadia a very hard time while they were catching her. She was brought to Good Idea vet clinic, where she was operated and began her recovery, to be moved then to the Bogrov clinic, where she is now.

Gerri had an unbelievably bad blood biochemistry and her leg was in the most unimaginable condition. Nevertheless she survived the sergery and is now recovering. We have not been able to pay for her operation at Good Idea. Her treatment in both clinics so far costs 220 E. We would really appreciate that everyone touched by her sad story would put aside and donate a little bit for her, so we can cover her bill and continue to help many others.

And Niko – the dog on this horrid video who is now healthy and happy. The other dogs are all rescues, allmost all were fostered by Dr Marietta Stankova. It was an easy and safe journey, the arrival was warm and happy. The dogs will stay in Strubali untill good parents are found for each and every one of them:

Jerry- stolen and euthanized

Posted on 14 May 2011

We are shocked to learn that poor Jerry – a tortured boy from the Traykovo village has been stolen on his was to adoptive parent Sanny Schulz and put to sleep.

Jerry’s ownership was transferred from us – the adoption and transport were organized by Mrs Mitreva of Tierhilfe Seuden. He was supposed to reach Mrs Schulz at Kleine Tiere, but was stolen and put to sleep for “humane” reasons before he reached Mrs Schulz.

This is schocking and sad news, we will help with whatever necessary so the perpotrator gets the maximum penalty.

Here is a tribute to Jerry from Sanny:
