Save unwanted animals from abandonment, neglect, abuse, or ending up in hellish “shelters”. THE ROMANIA ANIMAL RESCUE STORY, HOW WE CAME TO BE �
By Founder Nancy Janes:

In 2001, myself and 2 friends from the San Francisco Bay area took a hiking trip in Romania. We immediately noticed the sad state of the dogs……unwanted animals abandoned to life on the streets, in forests, and fields. Upon returni

ng to the Bay Area, we began registration for Romania Animal Rescue Inc. as a 501 (c) 3 charity. Romania Animal Rescue Inc has been working in Romania since 2003. Our headquarters in Romania is located at the Center of Hope near Bucharest, although we also work at Family Vet in Craiova, and have mobile veterinary campaigns throughout Romania (as funding permits). We run these programs:

*Spay/neuter (over 150,000)

*Homeless Animals Hospital that treats animals that have no help either due to being strays or cared for by impoverished guardians that are unable to afford treatment. It is our social animal hospital program held at Center of Hope hospital that was built in 2016-2017. Romania Animal Rescue Inc. fundraised for the building of the massive Center of Hope Social Hospital, its Spay/Neuter extension, and the Veterinary Campus.

*Mobile spay/neuter campaigns (Spayathons) in towns and villages whereby the Veterinary Team stays for days at a location to spay/neuter dogs and cats for the community and catching strays as possible.

*Veterinary Training Program scholarships provided for Romanian vets and others from impoverished countries, held at Center of Hope veterinary campus. This program trains vets on highly skilled veterinary surgical techniques using a spay hook for minimally invasive surgery so that they may return to their communities with a high skill level.

*Education programs and outreach services. We hold field trips to Center of Hope as well as Family Vet hospital in Craiova, and go to schools and events to teach children about animal welfare.

*Veterinary Patrol program that goes to villages and communities providing on the spot veterinary care and sterilization with the HOPE ambulance. We recently received a new (used) caravan from Germany that is being converted into a massive mobile clinic.

*Provide food and services for shelters with a combined total of 400+ dogs and cats.

*Work with international adoption partners who find loving homes for many of the dogs we treat. All our work is possible only through donations. No staff or Board Members from Romania Animal Rescue or Animal Spay and Neuter International UK receive a salary, as they are all volunteers. Only the vets in Romania are paid for their work.

We are honored to see Kindness Patrol featured in Romanian media as part of a larger story about the incredible work being done by Homeless Animal Hospital and Center of Hope.
Every day, animals across Romania suffer from injury, neglect, abandonment, and lack of access to veterinary care. While many of these cases happen out of sight, they cannot be ignored.
In the article, Dr. Aurelian Ștefan highlights the role of Kindness Patrol in reaching urgent cases that would otherwise have no chance of receiving help. From injured dogs found in remote fields to animals living in difficult conditions, our mission is simple: go where help is needed most.
As a mobile rescue unit, Kindness Patrol responds to emergency calls, rescues vulnerable animals, transports them to safety, and ensures they receive the medical care they desperately need.
We are proud to be part of a movement that has helped thousands of animals each year and continues to fight for a future where every animal has access to care, compassion, and a chance at a better life.
Thank you to everyone who supports our work. Whether you donate, volunteer, share our posts, or report animals in need, you are part of every rescue we make possible.
Together, we are proving that kindness can reach even the most forgotten places. ❤️🐾

Imagine living with a toothache so severe that every bite hurts.
Now imagine you can't tell anyone…..
This 84 kg gentle giant had been suffering in silence at the shelter. A badly infected tooth left him in constant pain, but getting him to the vet was easier said than done.

So Kindness Patrol stepped in. After sedation, it took several people to carry him to the vehicle. We got him to RAR at Center of Hope where treatment could finally begin.

No animal should have to suffer in silence.
Today, this gentle giant got the help he needed. ❤️ thanks to the Kindness Patrol.

Left behind as if his life was worth nothing anymore… 💔

Just look into those gentle, loyal eyes. They touch your heart instantly, don’t they? 🥺

This is how helpless he was when he was found. And despite everything he has been through, he still radiates so much love, trust, and gratitude.

Thankfully, yesterday someone crossed his path and immediately brought him to the Center of Hope. There, he finally received the care he so desperately needed.

At first, he seemed to be improving, but since this morning his condition has become critical.

We’re keeping our fingers tightly crossed. Because we so deeply hope that he will still get the chance to discover that his life truly is incredibly valuable. That he will experience what it feels like to be loved. That he will enjoy peace, freedom, safety, and above all, so very much love. 💖

Will you keep him in your thoughts with us and send a little extra strength to this brave old soul? 🙏🏼🥹❤️

The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Two wonderful neighborhood boys brought their best friend to RAR at Center of Hope hospital, asking for help.

This poor soul had been sprayed in the face with pepper spray, causing terrible suffering and needed medical treatment.

The ugly monster, that is hard to characterize as a human, did this to an innocent dog. For no other reason than to be cruel.

Humanity needs a huge awakening.

Lucky was Lucky 💖

On May 25th, we received an emergency call for help for a blind woman who was caring for no fewer than 21 dogs.

The men of our Kindness Patrol were heartbroken when they saw the conditions they were living in. They were equally devastated by the woman’s situation.

Simply sterilizing and neutering the dogs would not be enough here. Despite the long distance from the Center of Hope, we decided to return. Several times.

During the first rescue mission, our very old Millie was brought with us. But so was Lucky. This sweet boy was also chained up, and he immediately stole Dani’s heart. Dani shared his story on social media, and thankfully a wonderful Romanian family from Timișoara offered him a home.

Together with his wife, Dani drove more than 600 kilometers to bring Lucky to his new life.

Sometimes… sometimes I simply don’t have enough words to express how grateful we are for people like them. People who don’t see this as just a job, but as a life mission.

Thank you so much! ❤️

And as you can see, Lucky is completely HAPPY! 🥰🥰

Together we make the difference!

There is hope 💖…

Some stories touch your heart deeply. This is one of them.

Some time ago, this sweet little dog was brought to the Center of Hope - Spital Veterinar Piteasca hospital by a single mother and her special needs child. The little doggy was paralyzed and urgently needed medical care.

Thanks to the support of the Romania Animal Rescue, Inc Dba Animal Spay Neuter International Homeless Animal Hospital program, the dog was able to receive the treatment he needed and was given a second chance at a better life.

And just look at him now… 🥹😍 He has become the very best friend of this lovely little boy.

Isn’t it heartwarming to see what love, care, and a second chance can do?

This is the difference we can make together through your care, support, and trust. Together, we are stronger! ❤️🐾
