Rescue with responsibility
We do not only help in the short term; we accompany animals with heart, structure and responsibility on their way to a better life.
About us
Together we give animals a second chance.
Since 2013, we have worked with heart, responsibility and passion for dogs and cats in need. Together with our Romanian partner shelter, we accompany animals on their way to a new home.

Our mission
Help, protect, find homes.
Since our foundation in 2013, we have been passionately committed to animals in need. Together with our partner association Help Labus in Galați, we support animals that need protection, care and a real future.
What matters to us
Animal welfare with responsibility.
Suitable adoption
We want people and animals to truly fit together - for a safe, loving and lasting home.
Care on site
Care, medical help, neutering and support in the shelter are a firm part of our work.
Stronger together
Animal welfare only works together: with committed people, foster homes, supporters and donations.
