Help animals

The activities of SUST

All over the world, countless animals in overcrowded shelters live sadly or struggle for their survival in wild colonies. Day after day, even today, animals that have become inconvenient are still abandoned, deported or mistakenly kept for lack of better knowledge. The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation contributes with effective means to the fact that animal suffering can be reduced or even prevented sustainably.

This animal welfare work is based on four pillars:

1. Competence Centre Animal Shelter: Animal shelters become high-quality transition stations for homeless animals, where animals are kept and promoted in a way that is appropriate for their species and finally transferred to good new places.

2. Neutering campaigns: Braking the animal misery

3. Education and training of specialists: Specialists are given the opportunity to optimise their knowledge and improve animal welfare.

4. Education of the population: love of animals with heart and mind

These four elements form the important basis for sustainable animal welfare projects.

Those animals that are not yet able to benefit from the effects of this reconstruction work and have been born into a world where they are not wanted need the emergency aid of SUST.

Tomorrow in Swiss National TV: Nasty business with puppies

Traders promise a purebred dog from German breeding. In fact and truth it is a puppy from a rabies risk area. The Swiss TV format "Kassensturz" shows the drastic and expensive consequences: The animal must either be put down immediately or months in quarantine.

Kassensturz takes up this important topic in its broadcast of 12 May (broadcast on SRF 1, at 21.05, moderated by Ueli Schmezer)

Anyone who reacts to dog sales advertisements on the Internet risks a lot - no matter how cute the accompanying pictures are. "Behind them are often dubious dealers. The danger is great that the animals come from so-called 'multiplication stations' and thus cruel puppy trade is supported" warns animal welfare activist Susy Utzinger, who often deals with such cases and has already been involved in the eviction of such stations. "These dogs are reproduced in a merciless way, kept under terrible conditions, separated from their mothers much too early and it is hardly quantifiable how many animals perish in agony" she describes the circumstances behind the cute advertisement pictures.
