Why should you invest in the PawzUp project?

ROLDA operates in one of the poorest regions of Romania, where a family of 4 (or more) members survive with approx. 150 EUR a month.House pets(cats, dogs), working animals(horses, donkeys) and around 200.000 street dogs are exposed daily to risks such as starvation, disease, death or abandonment. The local small clinics can’t cope with the large numbers of animals in need and large animals face a grisly fate since there are no veterinary clinics equipped to meet their needs.

As of now, proper medical investigations are a 4 hours drive away from animals in need

For X-Rays, RMNs or other complex investigations (or even for a reliable diagnosis) pet owners have no choice but to transport their ailing furry friend to Bucharest (which is 4 hours drive that consists of 250km). Unfortunately, the strain of the long road is often too much to take for the pets, which leads to their demise.

The current risks we face

Imagine an are of 27158 km2 (about half the size of Switzerland) This huge area totally lacks veterinary clinics and modern sheltering facilities for animals, meaning that there is no place for local folks to treat their pets or adopt a new furry family member. Infections and diseases are a real threat which we vow to eliminate.

Testimonials

Kate Nattrass Atema, Director of the Global Community Animal Welfare Program IFAW
”The Pawzup Centre sounds like a fantastic and much-needed initiative that, I'm sure, will make a huge difference to the animals and the local community in Galati. Incorporating a therapy dogs program on top of the outreach, sterilization and rehoming work is a really progressive approach that I hope will lead to a change in attitudes about dogs.”
