Trap, neuter and release

The Catch, Neuter and Return program was held until 2014 for the dogs collected from the steel plant. This program was fully supported financially by ArcelorMittal Galati (AMG) and logistically by ROLDA.
Since ROLDA started the partnership with AMG for the dogs, our charity managed to reduce humanely (developing sterilization and adoptions programs) the stray dogs’ population with 70%.

An average of 40 dogs were catch, sterilized and returned on the industrial site in Galati.
