Save a Kill Shelter Dog
Benjamin and Eiras Story - Save a Kill Shelter Dog

Film & Campaign Description

Save a Kill Shelter Dog is a dog rescue founded by Julie our Dog Rescuer, featured in the video who is hands on and visits Romania, and a small team of volunteers that fundraise and work tirelessly to find suitable homes for the rescued dogs like Benjamin and Eira that have been rescued just days before being barbarically killed in Romanian kill shelters.

Dogs are often abused, beaten and treated in the most horrendous way and face the worst death imaginable. Often captured by dog catchers or surrendered by owners as disposable pets after most possibly a life on a chain or abuse. Save a Kill Shelter Dog rescues dogs from these kill shelters and gives them a chance of a happy safe life.

We rescue them, then take them to a Rescue Centre to carry out the best rescue process we can before rehoming to a forever home in the UK.

We rely solely on the support of others and kind donations. We do more than rescue. We rescue, provide veterinary level care, rehabilitate, socialise, behaviour assess, rehome, support and provide rescue back up.

We strongly believe that a rescue dog is the most precious gift.
