Măslină – Survivor of a Public Shelter's story

Măslină is a male dog who carries fear like a heavy coat. His body is always slightly hunched, his large eyes scanning for danger, and every movement we make makes him curl up even more into himself.

He is not aggressive and doesn’t necessarily run away, but his entire being is on constant alert. He doesn’t seek attention or contact. All he can receive from us is patience, calm, and space.

Through sponsorship/adoption at a distance, you can provide him with the food, care, and emotional support he needs to learn, step by step, that humans can be trusted.

Stand by Măslină. Beneath his deep fear, there is a scared but living soul that deserves to feel safety and peace.

Why dogs like Măslină – Survivor of a Public Shelter need sponsors

Every year, thousands of dogs are abandoned on the streets of Romania.

Many eventually arrive at Speranța Shelter after suffering neglect, illness or abuse. While we work tirelessly to find every dog a loving home, some simply wait much longer than others.

Older dogs, dogs with disabilities, and those carrying emotional scars are often overlooked despite having so much love to give.

Sponsorship allows dogs like Măslină – Survivor of a Public Shelter to receive everything they need for as long as they’re with us. It also helps us continue rescuing the next stray dog with nowhere else to go.
