Because every animal deserves to be respected
Preventive care is the best way of showing these dogs somebody is really looking out for them, by not letting them contract diseases and parasites.
Taking care of animals means keeping preventable illnesses at bay.
Transmissible from dog to dog, a terrible condition easier to prevent than cure.
More than being a nuisance, these parasites may carry crippling or fatal diseases.
Neglect, abuse and abandonment, backed by lack of knowledge are the causes of suffering we need to address. How? By educating people.
0 unwanted pups born = 0 unwanted pups abandoned
Not all owners are heartless. Some are just very poor. So, we help

With almost one million strays, the country faces one of Europe’s most urgent animal welfare crises. For many, life means hunger, injury, disease, and fear. For others, surviving in a cold, filthy public shelter can hardly be called a decent life. Since 2006, ROLDA exists to change this reality. We rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome abandoned animals while tackling the root causes of suffering through targeted sterilization campaigns, support for vulnerable pet owners, and humane education in local communities. Since 2021, we are also helping different other small charities across Romania affected by economic crisis.

ROLDA provides emergency relief and protection to animals impacted by war, natural disasters or crisis, preventing them to be exposed to danger, hunger, diseases and helps vulnerable pet owners to protect their animals, offer them a decent life and avoid abandon them.
Rescuing animals from puppy mills, treat, shelter and prepare them for adoption is part of our global efforts to make this Planet a better place for animals, the way we all dream it will be.
