We have many different cases of animals in need every single day. Some we are able to help, some not, but there are those that touch your heart so deeply you can hardly go on when you don’t succeed. Dzift, the abandoned German Shepherd from Kremikovtzi was one of them…<\/p>\n

We found Dzift last Monday in Kremikovtzi. Poor boy had fallen into an asphalt pit just hours after our team left the plant on Friday. The workers forgot to call us and only let us know about him three days later when we arived for our Monday visit. We rushed to the pit and found a horrid site: the lovely, huge boy was lying helpless and stuck in the heat and poison of the pit, unable to move, severely dehydrated, covered in asphalt, but still trying to wag his tale for us.<\/p>\n

We were shocked. Dzift was immedeately pulled out and rushed to the clinic – we feared it was too late for him as he had been licking his feet trying to get the sticky hot asphalt off, plus some part of the substance had already been absorbed through his skin. But how to wash it off??? We consulted tens of people till we got the right advice – the best way to get asphalt off a dog is to wash him with oil over and over and over…<\/p>\n

Dzift and our shelter team spent long days in the bathroom, we washed him till both us and him were too exhausted to stand on our feet. 8 litres of oil were used for a single bath and the asphalt slowly began to come off his coat. We kept Dzift on infusions and medication and were incouraged by his desire to survive, both him and us did all that was in our strenght to make it through this. We promissed him the best of families if he just grabbed on to life, we so hoped he would make it… But it was too late.<\/p>\n

Dzift passed away. He died of poisoning and there was nothing to do. Only to cry and hope there is a place were good dogs go. A place where we would meet some day without a single worry… Rest in peace, Dzift. Rest in peace and be happy wherever you are now, dear boy. We will always remember and love you for the brave and kind soul you were.<\/p>\n
