Homeless dog who spent all her life on the streets gets rescued by Howl Of A Dog. A foreign tourist who was visiting Romania and who was following our Howl Of A Dog YouTube channel, contacted us about a stray dog she kept seeing on the street during her stay in a small resort town. When we got there, the locals told us that the dog has been living in that neighborhood for years, and everybody there seemed to know her. Helen, as we later named her, was one of the lucky strays, accepted by the locals as “the neighborhood dog”, she had a relatively safe place and received food scraps from passers-by. But life on the street is rough, especially for older dogs like Helen who need to face the cold winter, rains and storms, deprived of any medical care and always in danger of getting hit by cars or harmed by not so animal friendly people.
It’s hard to find the right words to describe Helen, she is absolutely an amazing dog: so calm and friendly with everyone and extremely well mannered. A wonderful, pleasant temperament. It’s really sad that a dog like her had to live on the streets, alone, for so many years. And the resort town is also visited by thousands of tourists…Yet nobody seemed to have noticed Helen, until now, when this very kind lady from Finland spotted her and contacted us.
The plastic tag from Helen’s ear is part of a neuter-release program that took place until 2013, meaning that Helen was captured as a stray during that period, got spayed and then released back on the street. So she's been out there alone for at least 6 years.
Helen needs now an adoptive family, the loving home she's never had. She is in our care in Romania, but can also be adopted internationally to the US, Canada and Europe. For more details about her and the adoption procedure please visit: www.howlofadog.org/helen/ Many thanks!

***UPDATE: Helen has been adopted: www.howlofadog.org/helen-adopted-in-the-netherland… . Many thanks everyone for watching and sharing her rescue video and helping Helen find her perfect loving home!

    She slept so peacefully once she was rescued. Thank you, Angels.

    I wish I had the money? For the largest animal sanctuary I would save them all!
  • @MeMe-yz1rm
    Her demeanor changed completely. It's like a light was lit in her soul. She seems so happy. Thank you for saving her!

  • @mikeemike6515
    I don't get why videos like this would get dislikes.
  • @thegen6fennekin606
    I still find it hard to understand why people can see a dog living alone on the streets for several years and not contact animal support services sooner...
  • @kellydoyle
    Oh my gosh, it seemed as if she knew what a collar was and that it meant she was being saved or something! How she accepted the collar right away. Then it’s as if she’s smiling nonstop after being saved. What a sweet and precious soul. I don’t know how humans can pass by a dog like that and just walk on by.

    Helen looked so sad and tired in the beginning and now she looks so happy and healthy and she also looks like a young doggie now. Anyone who gets to adopt this angel will be so lucky ❤
  • @karlasoraya2175
    The tourist that stopped and took the time and the necessary steps to help her is just an amazing human being. May God bless you always 🙏🏼 Helen has such sweet face 💓
  • @brantastik
    She survived 6 years in the streets so she deserves to have a good second half of her life. Organisations like yours are amazing🙏 You have a purpose and it's an amazing one that is also extremely rewarding. I will try to donate as often as I can even though I can't give much.

    That dog was just waiting to be rescued. She had got used to being fed a little but she realised this was different and she was keen to put her head in that leash. It was so sweet to see her falling asleep feeling safe. These stories warm my heart and thanks to that tourist that didn't just stand by and did something. Thanks to them this girl got a new life.
