Protection against common parasites
Help dogs and cats to fight against fleas and ticks
From March to October, dogs and cats are in danger of being infested with fleas and ticks.
Fleas can survive freezing temperatures as immature pupae living in untreated animals such as homeless, neglected animals. Once the warm weather arrives, these pupae will thaw and begin to lay their eggs.
Ticks survive freezing temperatures in microclimates, and after the thaw, a female tick can lay hundreds to thousands of eggs at one time.
Fleas and ticks carry an array of potentially fatal diseases including anemia, tapeworms, and Lyme disease, that are transmitted to dogs, cats, and even humans. Fleas and ticks are incredibly stubborn pests that are almost impossible to eliminate. It’s even extremely difficult to keep their numbers under control.
These parasites can be extremely harmful to dogs and cats and can cause a wide array of health problems, including tick paralysis. Homeless animals are exposed and vulnerable to fleas and ticks because they are in constant contact with infected dogs and other animals.
And of course, because they do not receive a flea and tick preventive. If these animals remain untreated, most will succumb to the infections and diseases transmitted by these relentless pests.
Together we can prevent fleas and ticks from harming vulnerable animals in Romania. Help us protect these voiceless souls with Advantix Spot-on Solution prevention treatment—one of the safest and most effective ways to fight external parasites.
The monthly dose of Advantix Spot-on Solution for one animal costs as little as 8 USD and it guarantees a safe, healthy, and happy dog or cat!
It doesn’t cost much to help a lonely homeless animal be healthy, so please, donate today.
Transparency is important for ROLDA, as well as showing gratitude to our dedicated supporters.

While ROLDA continue to lobby for government and law enforcement in Romania & Worldwide, we are committed to do more to eliminate puppy mills structures where animals are abused and exploited.
#FriendsForever was created by ROLDA to help seniors keep their pets healthy and prevent them from being forced to abandon the only friend they may have.
Our first built (small) shelter is now twenty years old and despite being nominated multiple times for the best shelter in Romania, its age is beginning to show and is in need of some TLC. ROLDA holds to the highest standards of comfort and care and control disease management is a top priority for us, in both our shelteras but we need help maintaining those standards and providing the best possible facilities for our dogs.
Whilst Romanian law currently prohibits the sterilisation of stray dogs (and their returning to the wild), ROLDA are operating sterilisation campaigns in poor communities, targeting the pets of low- income families who could not afford private veterinary care. These campaigns tackle abandonment– one of the primary contributing factors to the national homeless dog crisis – in two key ways.
