'Johanna' Sexually abused-Beaten Dog - Warning! Distressing info and photographs!
'Johanna' Just another example of Romanian cruelty upon stray dogs! Stanescu Cornelia, who works for a Romanian Non Profit animal rescue organisation called 'Asociatia Pentru Protectia Animalelor-HULDA', saw her lying on the streets in Rosiori De Vede on August 26th at 5.40pm...Her injuries are horrific!
Her jaw has been deliberately smashed, resulting in loss of teeth, her front legs are possibly broken, and she has been abused physically & sexually, having had sticks and grass forcibly inserted into her mouth and anus...(I am in tears as I write this)...
She is being taken to a veterinary centre in Bucharest, after having initial first aid in the town where she was first found...
We need to raise donations, to help this poor innocent girl stand a fighting chance, by paying for medical fees.
Having recently undertaken the campaign visit to Romania, spearheaded by Wetnose Animal Aid with The K9 Angels,
'Norton Animal Rescue' has promised to highlight 'Johannas' plight, and show the World what is happening to Romanian stray dogs..
Abuse such as this cannot, and will not be tolerated in todays society! This criminal act must be investigated and 'Justice for Johanna' must be served!
A petition will soon be made available from Stanescu, urging the Romanian Authorities to investigate this act of brutality.

Words and story from Stanescu who first found her on the street..."She was found today after an incoming call, lying in front of a gate on the street as you see in all pictures. This is what a 'human' can do to a poor dog. She was beaten until mutilated. Jaw, tongue and teeth are broken, as well as front legs. She also has grass and sticks stuck in her anus and in her mouth. She receives today first aid, and tomorrow if she will survive, she will be transported to a clinic in Bucharest. We will make penal complaint to the police to find the person who committed this act."

**UPDATE AS OF 27-08-2014** - TRANSLATED...
'SHE MADE IT THROUGH LAST NIGHT'
"Johanna was today brought to the clinic in Bucharest. After the first examination on site in Rosiori, the vet told us, that a part of Joan's lower jaw is completely destroyed. Tomorrow morning, a specialist will come to the clinic and amputate Johanna a part of their lower jaw, so this will be reduced in the future. Then he will reconstruct the rest of their lower jaw. Johanna is still in a very critical condition. However, if tomorrow's operation is not performed, is a high risk of infection. Please continue to pray for our Johanna, she needs you now quite firmly ❤ - Johanna was transfered to the clinic in Bucharest today. The first check after the veterinary said in Rosiori, that the lower jaw is destroyed.The specialist wants to amputate the broken bones tomorrow and make a plastic surgery to restore the mandibular area. Her jaw, they want to remain shorter. She still needs our good thoughts to overcome this critical period. Thank you very much!"

**Donations to date**
Today, I looked at the 'Youcaring' donations page that I set up, to help raise Johanna's medical fees. I am not ashamed to admit that I fell to my knees, and sobbed uncontrollably. I am astounded by your generousity.
Within the first 10 hours, £1700.00 had been donated towards her care, and as I write this, that figure now stands at £2450.00.
I have sent the total amounts to HULDA, in order to provide the financial support that they need, in order to give Johanna the very best veterinary care and support-Please continue to donate...
Just like our lovely 'Grivita', little Johanna will become a 'beacon of hope', to shine a light upon such darkness and evil, and to show the World that Romanian dogs will NEVER give up.
THANK YOU ALL...XxX Gary Edwards...

Latest Post-Op Photos! She has had part of her lower mandible removed and cleaned. She will look kinda different to what she once was, but she will hopefully be ok...Keep her in your prayers.
UPDATE AS OF 29TH AUGUST- "Johanna feels good after yesterday's surgery. Today she even ate some canned food. The next week will still be difficult for this poor little soul, because of the high risk of infection. She gets intensive treatments and we are hopeful, that everything goes well. Johanna is a fighter! She is a lively and very loving dog"
*Important Update*- Having liaised with HULDA, & those angels looking after 'Johanna', please understand that the set figure on her 'JustGiving' fundraising page, was an initial amount set up by me, before any diagnosis, surgery or care..Therefore, although she will need continued aftercare, rehab & eventual rehoming costs, I have asked HULDA if a percentage of all future donations raised, can be used to help other Romanian animals, with the permission of all you kind people..Across Romania, there are many other 'Johanna's' desperately in need of assistance..Of couse, as always, I will let everyone know where this financial assistance goes..Thank you all..xx Please read latest info on her 'JustGiving' page xx
'Grivita'...Then and now...All abused dogs deserve the same chance of happiness...
