Help Save Gulizar: Puppy Raped and Fighting for Her Life

Gulizar, our latest rescue, is just a few months old and weighs only 6kg. She has endured unimaginable cruelty—raped repeatedly and left in critical condition. The moment we learned about her, we acted fast, sending someone to rescue her and report the crime. Shockingly, the police released her abuser without filing charges.

With deep sadness and anger, we took her in. She required urgent surgery for severe injuries in the anus area, with many stitches to repair the damage. As if that weren’t enough, she also contracted the deadly parvo virus during her suffering. Despite everything, her little body is holding on, though she is weak and exhausted. She is now safe with us in Ankara, receiving the best care possible.

Our hearts break for this innocent soul, who has suffered so much cruelty she never deserved.

Her recovery will be long and difficult, and she needs all the support she can get. Please consider donating to help cover her treatment and give her a chance at a new life. Every contribution counts, and we ask you to keep her in your thoughts, hoping she wins this fight and stays alive.
