Sava's Safe Haven is placed in a rural area from southen-east of Romania.

In Romanian villages most of the citizens keep their dogs tethered up on chains without proper food, shelter and medical care.

Every day we face with lack of veterinary care due various reasons such as lack of education, lack of compasion, lack of funds or most of common - lack of veterinary clinics in rural area.

Mostly of clinics from rural area are inexistent and the one that exist .. are focus on farm animals. People are needed to travel to city to get proper care for their pets.

And unfortunately only 10% people do that. We face daily with terrible case of illness to animals and people that are in desperate need of help.

As you already now, Sava's Safe Haven is one of the charities that try to reduce the number of street animals through neutering projects, but mostly in rural area.

Legally, the campanies of free spay/neutering must be made in authorised clinics. So in past we searched rural clinics and helped communities with veterinary care that their own vet was not doing such as surgeries/care for pets.

But what about the villages where we can't make campaign due lack of clinics? No one help them!
