Blacky – almost 10, but still full of life
Blacky is getting close to 10 years old, but his energy and charm haven’t faded one bit. He’s lively, curious, and eager to enjoy each day. He doesn’t ask for much — just care, good food, and a bit of peace.
Through long-distance adoption, you can help keep him healthy and happy. Blacky deserves to grow old with dignity, supported by a kind heart.
Age: born in 2015
Gender: boy
Lives at: Speranța Shelter, Romania
Every dog at Speranța Shelter deserves food, warmth, medical care and love, whether they find a home next month or spend many more years with us.
Dogs like Blacky often wait the longest for a home. Whether or not Blacky ever finds a forever family, your sponsorship means they never go without.
Although your sponsorship is linked to Blacky, your donation also helps us care for every dog at Speranța Shelter. Together, we make sure no rescued dog is ever left without the essentials they need.
By sponsoring Blacky, you’re helping provide:
Press the button below to start sponsoring Blacky
Tell us a little about you, choose how much you'd like to give each month and for how long (minimum 3 months), then confirm with your first payment. After that, it's automatic, nothing more for you to do.
Once your sponsorship begins, we'll send you a welcome email followed by regular updates and photos, so you can see how Blacky is doing and the difference your support is making.
If you’d rather make a single contribution instead of sponsoring monthly, you can make an annual donation to support Blacky.
Your gift will help cover the cost of food, veterinary care, shelter and everything else they need throughout the year.
Unlike monthly sponsorship, this option does not include regular updates or a dedicated sponsorship relationship with Blacky. It’s simply another meaningful way to help provide the care they deserve.
Every year, thousands of dogs are abandoned on the streets of Romania.
Many eventually arrive at Speranța Shelter after suffering neglect, illness or abuse. While we work tirelessly to find every dog a loving home, some simply wait much longer than others.
Older dogs, dogs with disabilities, and those carrying emotional scars are often overlooked despite having so much love to give.
Sponsorship allows dogs like Blacky to receive everything they need for as long as they’re with us. It also helps us continue rescuing the next stray dog with nowhere else to go.
For more than 20 years, Speranța Shelter has been rescuing, treating and caring for abandoned dogs in Romania.
Today, more than 500 dogs rely on us every day for food, medical treatment, rehabilitation and a safe place to live while they wait for a forever home.
Every sponsorship helps us continue this work.
