News and Information
This Page Sets out to Bring you our
Latest News and Details of Future
Plans
A warm welcome to our new website! This page is for posting news and
results, along with details of any hopes and plans we have for the future of
this wonderful Shelter. We have a group of supporters who are striving really
hard to keep Semper Fidelis Domus open and the lovely dogs safe and happy.
As we are just starting out, most of this site will be a
little bit experimental, and the format might well
change as we gain information. On the right is a video
of the advertisement that runs in Bucharest for the
Shelter. Please watch it through and hopefully it will
tempt you to help us rehome, fundraise and spread
the word.
Here is a post put up on Facebook by someone who
has started following the Shelter and helping as much
as she can. I asked permission to post this……….
������ Every now and again in life, a place makes
a huge impression - I haven’t visited SFD yet and
am hoping to shortly, but it still manages to get
under my skin and into my heart and soul. It is not
‘just another dog shelter’, it is a place where the
dogs are safe, there is no cruelty, they are well fed
and looked after and you can see from the video
how healthy and sociable they are. All they are
lacking is a home of their own. This is an incredible
place started by one lady, and the results can be
seen here. This is why a small group of us work so
hard to support this place and try and keep it from
being closed. There is no money left now, but we
will not give up trying to keep these dogs fed and
this place open - this is almost a ‘sanctuary’ in a
country where everywhere you go, there are
starving, beaten and abandoned dogs. The lucky
ones reached Semper Fidelis Domus Shelter.

For some time now, the owner of Semper Fidelis
Domus has been struggling to find a way to keep
the Shelter open, using all her own money along
with a small rent received from two shelters she
owns in the area. A desperate plea went out as it
looked as though the only option was to send all
the dogs to the public shelter and to close.
A group of us have banded together to do our
utmost to prevent this - dogs in the public shelter
get fifteen days grace before euthanasia. Another
alternative would be to send the dogs out to other
shelters in Europe and to close.
WHAT A CRYING SHAME!!!!!
After all the hard work and the thousands of Euros
of her own savings put in. With all those rescued
dogs in such marvellous condition and as happy as
shelter dogs can be - how could we allow that to
happen?
SO WE ARE DOING OUR BEST TO KEEP
THE SHELTER OPEN AND ALL THE DOGS
FED - BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!!!!
We need your help right now! We need to raise
enough money every month to pay
•
Food approx 2400 Euros
