The Reality for Romania’s Street Dogs
Every day, over 500,000 dogs roam the streets of Romania, abandoned, injured, hungry, and alone.
Many are left as puppies before they can survive. Others endure years of neglect, untreated illness and fear.
They face freezing winters disease, and constant danger.
For most, survival is uncertain.
For many, tomorrow never comes.
This is the reality we are fighting to change.
And we see it every single day.
Why We Exist
At Aiderbichl Animal Aid UK, we step in where help is absent.
We work directly on the ground, rescuing dogs in immediate danger and providing urgent veterinary care.
Every dog we save carries the weight of their past.
But every rescue is the beginning of something new:
Safety. Care. Hope.
With your support, we can reach the dogs who need us most.
From Survival to Healing
Every day, we are rescuing dogs in crisis and bringing them into safety.
Once rescued, each dog begins their journey to recovery.
We provide:
• Emergency veterinary treatment
• Vaccinations and medical care
• Proper nutrition and warmth
• Patient rehabilitation for physical and emotional healing
With time and compassion:
Dogs begin to trust again.
Puppies begin to play.
Injured bodies heal.
Our Vision: A Sanctuary Like No Other
We are building something truly life-changing.
A purpose-built, never-before-seen sanctuary, designed for healing, dignity, and long-term recovery.
This will not be just a shelter.
It will be a place where dogs are finally safe.
We’re working to raise £700,000 to build this life-saving sanctuary, a place where thousands of dogs can be rescued, treated, and given the time they need to heal.
While this sanctuary is our long-term vision, our rescue work continues every single day, saving dogs who need urgent care right now.
Together, we can build this future.
What This Sanctuary Will Provide:
• On-site veterinary clinic
• Recovery and rehabilitation spaces
• A home-style Puppy House
• Safe indoor & outdoor environments
• Education and community spaces
This means we can rescue more dogs, treat complex cases, and create lasting change.
Every donation brings this sanctuary closer to reality.
Why This Matters
Across Romania, shelters are overwhelmed and underfunded.
Many dogs face euthanasia simply because there is no space or time to help them.
These dogs don’t need quick fixes.
They need time, care, compassion and love.
You can be the reason they get that chance.
The Impact You Make
We currently care for around 150 dogs, with new arrivals every week.
Your support provides:
• Food and safe shelter
• Life-saving veterinary care
• Rehabilitation and recovery
• A second chance at life
You are not just donating. You are saving lives.
What Your Donation Can Do
Every dog we rescue relies on ongoing care, treatment, and support and this is only possible because of you.
£35 helps neuter a dog and provide emergency food and care
£65 vaccinates and treats a dog to keep them safe and healthy
£150 fully prepares a dog for adoption into a loving home
Every donation, no matter the size, makes a real and immediate difference.
Built on Trust
We are proud to work in partnership with Gut Aiderbichl, one of Europe’s most respected animal welfare organisations.
Every donation made in the UK goes directly toward helping dogs in Romania.
Why We Need Your Help Now
Every day we wait, more dogs are left suffering on the streets, injured, frightened and without care.
We are ready to take the next step in building this sanctuary, but we cannot do it alone.
The sooner we reach our goal, the sooner we can rescue more dogs and begin giving them the safety and hopeful future they deserve.
Your support today can bring this life-saving project one step closer to reality.
Be Part of Their Second Chance
This is more than a sanctuary.
It’s a future where fewer dogs suffer and more are given the chance to heal and belong.
Together, we can turn:
Fear into safety
Neglect into care
Survival into living
Please support us today and help us build a place where second chances begin.
