Shylah the Tri-pawed Hero
Shylah's story is all too common in places like Romania, where stray dogs roam the streets in high numbers. When we found him, Shylah was in a dire state and his injury was severe. But we got him the life-saving treatment he needed. Since then, he has found his forever home with an amazing family.

I've donated to this wonderful charity penny's ark because I love dogs, and this charity does all it can to help them . If someone isn's able to adopt a dog, I find that sponsoring a dog is a lovely way to help .you are part of the team that helps that dog go to foster until they find their forever home, and I find that very rewarding

I have met the little dog Archie who Penny’s Ark have brought over to the U.K. to rehome. The foster process was smooth and professional. I recommend Penny’s Ark

I’ve known Lindsey through her work at Romanian Rescue Appeal and learned that she’d moved on and started a new charity called Penny’s Ark. I happily donate to Penny’s Ark as I am confident that 100% of donations goes directly to where it’s needed i.e. the dogs that need help.
