Max

Max was brought to the shelter after his owner passed away. It was just the two of them, and the owner’s family couldn’t keep him—they said they were afraid of dogs and that the shelter would be better for him. Maybe it is, but Max has a broken heart.

Satan

Morogan

Morogan is 8 years old and is just now learning what it means to be a dog.
He spent years locked in a dirty, cramped apartment, never taken outside, never socializing, never living.
Now, with small steps, he’s learning to trust. He’s shy, but curious. He’s hurt, but open.

Gigi

Gigi – once a great charmer, now a sweet old gentleman in the shelter.
He no longer chases the ladies, just a patch of sunshine and a bed of warm straw.

Piatră

He’s a young American Bully, abandoned like so many others of his breed by people who never meant to stick around. Now he’s with us, safe in the shelter – but of all the dogs here, he’s the saddest.

Cipi

Cipi is a beautiful little boy, curious and with eyes that go straight to your heart. He’s been waiting for a while now for a chance at a better life – whether through a forever home or with the support of a kind soul from afar.

Soare

This little dog, rescued from the Fetești public horror shelter, has only known fear, even though he’s just a puppy, not even a year old. To give him a real chance at a happy life, we want to include him in the Messengers of Hope program, where he will learn to overcome the trauma of his past.

Mihai

Mihai is a brown dog with a white stripe on his head and white socks. He is a scared soul with no chances for physical adoption, but you can still help him! Through distance adoption, you can contribute monthly to his food, care, and comfort. Stand by Mihai and give him a chance for a better life!

Lucky

Lucky is a fluffy and handsome boy, full of energy and love. He deserves a happy life full of care, and you can help him! Through distance adoption, you can contribute monthly to his food, care, and comfort. Stand by Lucky and give him a chance for a wonderful future!

Dor

Dor, a gentle soul of 10 years, is battling severe spondylosis that affects his mobility. He urgently needs tests and treatment to avoid a difficult surgery.

Bach

He has a name as beautiful as he is: Bach. We didn’t name him that because he composes memorable arias, but because we found him in the parking lot of Hornbach Militari.

Tyson

His name says it all—Tyson is a champion! Not in boxing, but in puppy eyes and wagging tails. He hasn’t found his perfect ring… I mean, home yet, but maybe you’d like to be his coach from afar! Through a long-distance adoption, you can help him with food, care, and plenty of well-deserved pampering.

Bebe

Bebe and his brother grew up together, but life separated them. His brother was adopted, while he was left behind… yet he still hopes someone will give him a chance, even from afar. Through a long-distance adoption, you can provide him with food, care, and the love he deserves.

Rony

While other dogs use their short and precious time outside the kennel to run, play, or simply lie in the sun alone, Rony has a different favorite way to unwind: annoying all his neighbors in the row.

Maru

Maru is a handsome, curious, and, as you can probably tell, a big eater. He is 10 years old and the best dog to mimic because he has the most expressive and “actor-like” face. If he had access to the internet, he would probably go viral on TikTok.

Ursu

This is what a dog who has spent 12 years in a shelter looks like. Yeah, you read that right—12 years. And yes, you can see it just as clearly: he looks like a normal dog.

Bubu

Bubu has the looks of a purebred, but you shouldn’t believe everything you think you see. Not only does Bubu resemble a pedigree dog while actually being the most genuine and authentic stray, but he’s also something more.

Patrocle

Patrocle is a loving and soulful little dog. In fact, saying that Patrocle is full of soul would be a huge understatement because the truth is, we don’t really understand how such a big soul can fit into such a small dog’s body.

Ely

Ely is a stunning 8-year-old male dog with a rich coat and an enviable shade of gray – a color many would pay a fortune for at a salon! Despite his natural elegance, Ely is still searching for his luck.

Haiduc

Haiduc is a young dog with a special look: black and white, like a chess board! Full of energy and love, Haiduc is dreaming of a family to spoil him. In the meantime, you can support him through long-distance adoption by helping him receive care, food and lots of attention.

Pandele

Pandele is extremely sociable and always happy. For 6 years now, that is, for over 2000 days, he has been waiting for you every day, hour by hour, to come to visit us, to fall in love with him and to take him home.

Bijou

Hello, my friend. I’m Bijou.

If you’re looking at me, I look like a classy, classy 2016 model (meaning I’m nine years old).

If you have the patience to let me tell you more about myself, you should know that I also have the temperament of a classic maidanez: I’m intelligent, resilient, easily adaptable to any conditions, I love food and I look for it everywhere.

Mateo

I’m Mateo and I’m always playing coy, until I get to the point where I trust others, at which point I climb right into their heads. Sometimes literally.

Fox

Fox is the loudest dog in the shelter, although he is, to be honest, a bit of a non-dog. In the sense that 99% of the dogs we know love being around people and interacting with them. But Fox is special, he’s not in the 99%. Fox genuinely and unabashedly loathes people other than those who feed and care for him on a daily basis, and he signals this with intense and aggressive barking.

Maty

I’m Maty, I’m nine years old and I’ve been here since I opened my eyes.

I don’t trust people and could really use help.

If you can donate for me, the shelter could pay for me to spend some time with a trainer to teach me to trust people and maybe someday end up with a family. Please don’t forget me. Thank you so much.

Tinu

Tinu is a senior dog, over 14 years old, a kind and peaceful old dog, who has been living in the Speranța Shelter for many years. We haven’t given up hope that we will find him a family, but until then, his life needs warmth, comfort and love – things that YOU can give him through a long-distance adoption.

Dyani

Technically, this is Dyani and he’s a small wolf. A wolf in appearance only, of course, because behaviorally he’s the most gentle and domestic dog we’ve ever seen.

Colț

Colt’s as pretty as a picture. And like a painting he has sat and waited, almost motionless, day after day, for almost 13 years, for someone to save him.

Albano

Albano is a special little puppy, one of those puppies that look straight into your heart. Saved from the middle of the road by a family of Italians who had come to Romania, he and his sisters, Romina and Sofia, arrived at the shelter with the hope that they would be given a chance at a better life.

Maronică

Pictured is Maronică. He grew up tormented, chained and isolated from the people he would have needed affection and socialization from. Now he’s very afraid of people, but he’s a warm and harmless little wimp, never bites.

Mișu

Mișu broke our hearts. We don’t know what happened to him in the public shelter in Târgu Jiu, but he is now in a deep depression.
He sits like this for hours, in the farthest corner of the paddock, with his head against a wall, like an ostrich.

Emil

Emil comes from the shelter in Târgu Jiu and has definitely been beaten. He’s very scared, and when our employees are nearby, he freaks out. He’ll get into a corner and shake like jelly until it passes.
Emil will have his work cut out for him in the Messengers of Hope program and he needs your support.

Eros

Eros, who came to us from the public shelter in Târgu Jiu, can’t believe he’s being petted. That people speak to him kindly and gently, that they care about him.

He’s a tall, handsome dog, almost addicted to affection. After all, he seems to have missed so much.

Luca

His name is Luca, but he doesn’t live on the second floor. Luca doesn’t even know that there are beings that live on top of each other, in blocks of flats. What’s more, he doesn’t even know that beings are supposed to have a home of their own. We bet he’s always wondering where the Hope employees go when they leave, but he can’t fathom that they have a family other than him.

Boris

I’m Boris, they call me Boris the Robot. I have received many gifts over the years at Hope. Almost all of them have been thanks to your generosity, people who I know follow the page, because I know there are no such things as an estate. I remember, for example, some “Forrest Gump” exterior rods that helped me, at the time, regain my normal, proud gait.
