Please help us to raise money for Bak & Paja.
We have to raise €130 urgently.
Paypal: free.fly.dogs@gmail.com
Our boys Bak & Paja their whole life spent in different kennels. Last 2 years they are in one. Unfortunately, we were told that they have to moved from there for 3 days!!!! How? Where? How we can pay for new kennels?
We are always in debt. What a mess. 😦 Pleas help us to raise money for new kennels. Please!!!
New kennels costs 50 euros per month per dog + 15 euros for food per month per dog. Who are Bak and Paja??? Bak will say something about him by himself: I am Bak. 3 years ago I was a baby and lived at the dump with 6 brothers and sisters. They thought I wouldn’t survive. I was sick, very sick.
Now I’m healthy, gentle, beautiful, very good boy with only 13 kg, but I’m not happy. I’ve never had a home. I heard stories about it and promises I will have a home one day and people there will love me. But no one was asking, no one came to see me. I want only one thing from Santa, to find me a nice home. Let him bring kids presents. He doesn’t have to bring me, I’ll go there by my own. Just let him say me where that home is. Who is Paja?
Paja is the most active member of our doggy gang. He was taken from a junk pile at the Novi Sad Rail station in January. He had no hair. He had demodex which we managed to heal. He has a lot of HOUND qualities. He is very active, dominant, a true lieder. Very happy and friendly.
His perfect life space would be a big yard. He has been castrated, vaccinated and microchipped.

Well, Hannah and Chantal have grown big and old enough to handle surgery, so both of them were spayed three days ago.
To our huge surprise, Chantal turned out to be a boy (who will most likely have his name changed to Chanty) as we’ve never even checked his gender – we were told he was a she and we accepted that statement at face value.
However, he is definitely a boy and he was an abdominal cryptorchid; one of his testicles normally descended into scrotum, but it was almost totally stunted, while the other one was retained in the abdominal cavity and significantly bigger.
The result is that instead of a routine neuter surgery which would have lasted 15 minutes at most, the vet needed to make an incision along Chanty’s abdomen to remove the retained testicle and perform a surgical procedure which resembles a spay surgery for a female cat.
Both Hannah and Chanty were operated on under inhalation anesthesia and are now receiving antibiotics but they are recovering nicely and most importantly, they are not touching their wounds.
Please help us cover the costs of their surgeries with whatever you can spare.

Repic is gone.
His story has pretty much been told but he deserves another one, the story of a beautiful, complicated and vigilant kitty boy with astonishing persistence, boundless courage and a heart of gold.
We want him to be remembered not as a broken, exhausted skinny creature that spent weeks fighting a losing battle with fading strength, but as the little distant yet adored shimmering star of our hearts he has always been. And he is getting his new story now, as soon as we’ve managed to pull ourselves together, the story of utter devotion, desperate hope, pure bravery, crushed dreams and eternal love.
The first few months of his sadly too short life were horrific, painted with fear and suffering and though he miraculously maintained his innate sweetness, he also became forever marked with the knowledge that pure evil exists. Oh yes, he was cuddly and affectionate back then when he was first taken off the streets, he was ready to give and receive love, but over the course of the following years something went wrong.
His fragile trust in humans was somehow betrayed again and he matured into a watchful, circumspect and reserved kitty boy, rather standoffish and adamant not to let anyone invade his personal space. However, he seemed to be happy here, living the kind of life he had chosen a long time ago and no one questioned his reasons for being wary – he was accepted just as he was.
Things were going at a regular slow pace until an almost routine vet evaluation of Repic’s condition a month ago, when we got a detailed insight into his health issues which shook us to the core. We were flabbergasted and horrified when we finally learned the truth about the consequences of the eye injury he suffered as a youngster and we suddenly realized he had never been authentically reserved and sedate – he was unwell. Extremely unwell. Unwell to the point that his life was at risk.
He fought with all of his might, we supported him every step of the way and the vet did everything that could be done and then some. None of us were ready to give up on our brave little fighter, not even when we all knew only a miracle could save him.
Twinkling through the deepest darkness, there was that tiny spark of hope that the impossible could happen if we fought long enough, strong enough, brave enough… And if it couldn’t happen, if a miracle didn’t occur, at least our courageous furry warrior would lose the battle of his life with all guns blazing.
After weeks of hopeless struggle, Repic had had enough. He must’ve been too tired, too weakened and too exhausted to see the point of holding on any longer. Maybe he saw the rainbow and felt that the time had come to cross into the light, maybe he knew he could leave with no fear as our love would be his shield wherever he soared. Maybe now he’s came to realize just how much he enriched our lives and has gotten to understand how he will carry on in every beat of our hearts. Maybe he has always known that goodbyes are not forever.
This is not a farewell, this is until we meet again.
So spread your wings and fly past the sun, sweet Repic, you’re finally free and there’re no limits anymore.
Those who leave behind a sparkling trail of glitter will never be forgotten.

Lovely Kasper, who was saved from a shelter that burned to the ground in 2011 and has been through hell and back already is seriously ill. He’s had episodes of diarrhea every six months or so for years now and it was as though he had some gastrointestinal disorder, but when his stools have become loose and watery again, for the zillionth time, a UV scan was done and showed Kasper’s real problem is CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease). His kidneys are failing and that’s why he’s had diarrhea on and off for ages. He’s currently being fed a specific veterinary therapeutic diet with a restricted protein and phosphate content designed to support kidney function and minimize the complications of CKD.
We’ve ordered Ipakitine, a chitosan-based phosphate binder and uremic reducer from Hungary for him and Sneska, as we can’t find it here in Serbia. At this point, it’s impossible to tell how much time he has left, but we’ll do our best to improve the quality of his life and slow the progression of the disease.
Any help for this sweet kitty boy is more than welcome!

IMPORTANT – Please ensure that you copy and send BOTH the Serbian and then the English OR German versions of the letter in your e mail.
The Serbian copy will put pressure on, and ensure the Serbians are left in no doubt as to the situation; and that the EU is being informed of their actions. Remember that Serbia is an EU ‘Candidate Country’ and very much wishes to join the EU. But if it does not follow it own rules / laws, (the EU requirement of the ‘rule of law’); then it should never be allowed to become an EU member.
All the Serbian e mail addresses to which the letters should be sent are given in the first list. EU listings are then supplied.
Please copy them all and paste into one e mail, along with the Serbian and English / German copy of the letter.
This can also be done by NON EU citizens; you could declare your name and nationality at the end – thank you.

Poštovani
Dobili smo nezvanične informacije da će u Skupštini grada Niša biti doneta odluka o eutanaziji napuštenih životinja , kako u prihvatilištu koje je inače ne registrovan objekat , tako i onih koji se nalaze na ulicama, a koje se masovno hvataju na najsurovije moguće načine i odvode u gore pomenuti objekat.
Ovim putem najoštrije osuđujemo bilo kakvu ovakvu odluku , jer za nemiile događaje u kome su ljudi povređeni od strane napuštenih pasa , odmazdu ne treba da snose drugi psi, jer nisu oni krivi , već organi koji nisu postupali u skladu sa Zakonom o dobrobiti životinja i počev od dana donošenja Zakona nisu preduzeli svoje zakonske obaveze u cilju smanjenja broja napuštenih životinja.
Zakon mora da se poštuje, a za njegovo nepoštovanje, koje je očigledno, posledice ne trebaju da snose psi .
Zahtevamo da se bilo kakva eventualna protivzakonita odluka Skupštine grada Niša stavi van snage , te da se na ozbiljan i sistematski način pristupi rešavanju problema napuštenih životinja , jer bilo kakvi ad hoc masakri neće dati rezultate i ovakvi događaji će se iznova ponavljati.
Hier bitte unterzeichnen –

– English Text (for EU Parliament)
To whom it might concern,
We strongly condemn JKP “ Naš Dom” Pozega for their behavior in terms of treatment of abandoned animals. The Animal Welfare Act in Serbia clearly stipulates that abandoned animals cannot be killed except in exceptional circumstances, but must be housed and cared for in the shelters, yet we learned that JKP “ Naš Dom” is planning to kill 90% of the dogs that they catch in 2016.
On the news tonight (16.03.2016 ), on the TV station B92, JKP “ Naš Dom” admitted that in year 2015 out of 1350 captured dogs, 1280 were killed!
We are outraged and appalled by such disrespect of the current law by an institution JKP “ Naš Dom” which is governed by the state! This institution, clearly feels they’re above the law! We will be notifying all competent authorities in the EU and beyond and will be looking into taking measures to prevent future illegal slaughter of animals in Serbia.
We also must add that we are aware of current lynch on street dogs in Nis which is almost announced publicly as form of revenge for the attack carried out on an elderly woman by a pack of dogs. We are also aware of all the unlawful poisonings and killings of animals which are happening in Serbia because the institutions governed by the state assigned to deal with the problem are not following the laws and therefore are failing to deal with the problem as well as not dealing with irresponsible owners who abandon their animals and are part of the problem.
So far we have pointed out how to humanely solve the problem of abandoned animals and for us it is devastating that Serbia does not actually apply these measures. Measures, which are prescribed by the Law.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
Wir verurteilen JKP ” Naš Dom” Pozega für ihr Verhalten in Bezug auf die Behandlung von ausgesetzten Tieren. Das Tierschutzgesetz in Serbien ist deutlich festgelegt, Tiere dürfen nicht getötet werden, außer in extremen Ausnahmefällen, sondern müssen im Tierheim/Pension untergebracht und betreut werden. Jedoch haben wir erfahren, dass JKP ” Naš Dom” vor hat 90% der Hunde die sie im Jahr 2016 fangen zu töten.
In den Nachrichten am 16.03.2016, auf dem Sender B92 haben JKP ” Naš Dom” zugegeben, dass im Jahre 2015 aus den 1350 gefangen genommenen Hunden, 1280 getötet wurden!
Wir sind empört und entsetzt über diese Missachtung des Gesetzes von JKP ” Naš Dom”, eine Institution die vom Staat geregelt wird! Wir werden alle zuständigen Behörden in der EU benachrichtigen und darüber hinaus werden wir auch Maßnahmen erforschen um weitere illegale Schlachtung von Tieren in Serbien zu vermeiden.
Wir wissen ebenfalls, dass das aktuelle Lynchen von Straßenhunden in Nis öffentlich angekündigt wird, als Rache für einen früheren Hundeangriff auf eine ältere Frau.
Staatliche Organisationen sehen illegale Vergiftung und Töten der Straßentiere als die einzige Lösung zu diesem Problem, anstatt sich mit verantwortungslosen Besitzern zu beschäftigen, die nur weiter zu dem Problem hinzufügen in dem sie ihre Hunde auf die Straße aussetzen.
Wir haben an die Serbischen Organisationen Empfehlungen weitergeleitetet, wie die Situation der Straßenhunde verbessert werden könnte, rechtmäßig und ohne das es den Tieren zu Schaden kommt. Für uns ist es einfach unfassbar, dass diese tierfreundliche Maßnahmen in Serbien nicht eingesetzt werden. Maßnahmen, die durch das Gesetz eigentlich vorgeschrieben sind!
Wir sind empört wie das Gesetz in Serbien umgangen wird und wir werden alles in unserer Macht steht tun um die geplante Tötung von 1300 Tieren von JKP ” Naš Dom” in 2016 zu verhindern.
