One of the most heartbreaking problems for any dog rescue organization is unwanted puppies. The team at Rifugio Fata struggle every day to keep up with the sheer numbers of dogs and puppies found on the streets and left at their gates. Spay/neuter operations are a hugely important part of their efforts to control local population numbers and prevent future suffering. The team also endeavor to sterilize all dogs entering their facility in order to create a more peaceful, harmonious environment, and to ensure that their residents do not contribute to the problem in the future.
But like everything, it costs! Each operation, with blood tests included, is €120. And they currently have 12 female dogs in need of sterilization.
This sweet girl was recently found on the streets with her puppies near Rifugio Fata. The shelter is full, so the team have managed to find foster homes for the puppies and they are looking for somebody to adopt their lovely mamma. In the meantime, they know that the next best thing to finding a home for her is to make sure she is fixed so she is not burdened with another litter of puppies on her next cycle.
