Desperate abandonments: Animal welfare fights for cured dog Luna!
There are still undeniable challenges in animal protection in the Peine region. The Peine animal welfare association is tireless in its fight against the abandonment of animals. Reported on this News38 that the dog Luna, who was discovered in Ilsede in mid-June, was found chained to a tree and abandoned. Fortunately, the police became aware and informed the animal shelter, which quickly took Luna in.
Luna, who was born in 2023, is a real ray of sunshine. With her affectionate and child-loving nature, she quickly wins the hearts of her foster families. Walking the dog also works very well because she has solid basic obedience. Luna enjoys walking on a leash and is a sporty and intelligent dog who needs daily physical and mental challenges.
Sad fates in the area
But it's not just Luna who is affected by such terrible fates. There was recently a tragic case in Peine: two puppies, Simba and Nala, were found, but could not be saved and had to be euthanized shortly after their discovery due to severe parvovirus. This viral infection can be particularly disastrous for newly vaccinated young animals and causes severe symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting and high fever. Further details are available on Your wildlife.
This disease is extremely contagious and can have fatal consequences without immediate medical treatment. Young puppies in particular are extremely at risk, which makes the shelter employees' grief for Simba and Nala all the greater. The harsh circumstances that lead to the suspensions are always a path of suffering that remains incomprehensible.
Hope through active animal protection measures
The animal welfare association has recognized that we have to fight against the flood of unwanted animals. In July 2021, an animal hatch was set up that automatically informed animal rights activists when an animal was placed inside. Unfortunately, this animal flap had to be closed again a short time later due to the high number of people and the overload of the animal protection association. Animals often come to their shelter in precarious situations, be it from irresponsible owners or from almost unimaginable circumstances.
The Peine animal protection association appeals to citizens to treat pets more responsibly and to seek help before making drastic decisions. The case of Luna, as well as the tragic story of Simba and Nala, illustrate more than ever how important active and responsible action in animal protection is.
It remains to be hoped that sensitivity to the painful fate of abandoned animals will grow and that each individual can make a small contribution to alleviating the suffering and giving animals like Luna a happy home.
