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.

Successful animal welfare mission in Romania

August 2023

With many wonderful impressions in their luggage, the mission team made its way back to Switzerland on September 1st with a side trip to the SUST-Orphan Wildlife @Wildlife Rehabilitation Center "Luanas Dream" in Bucharest.

The SUST Animal Welfare Helpers team completed other important work during the outreach week of Aug. 28-Sept. 1, 2023, in addition to many cleaning tasks:

 

  • Important precaution: Around 300 shelter dogs and over 100 shelter cats were treated against endo- and ectoparasites this week

  • Coat care is also important: many dogs were intensively brushed these days, some of them even received a summer haircut

  • Donkeys and sheep: "discarded" farm animals also find a new home at the SUST shelter, the enclosures have been cleaned, the hay store replenished

  • Much more than animal welfare expertise: Thanks to technical know-how, further, necessary maintenance work was carried out

  • "Kieser training": several hundred kilos of gravel were shoveled and distributed

  • Perfect cooperation for the welfare of the animals: administration, preparation, anesthesia, surgery and the recovery stations worked together in a highly concentrated manner.

  • Have good experiences with people: countless animals have been cuddled and puppies socialized.

 

The neutering team consisting of experienced SUST veterinarians was simultaneously and tirelessly on duty at the SUST-OAH:

  • Animal protection neutering campaign: 469 dogs and cats were professionally neutered by experienced veterinarians this week

  • The Orphan Animal Hospital continued to be open during this week for emergencies: For example, for this dog that had an accident

  • Digital X-ray machine: Thanks to donations, we can now X-ray injured animals and provide even better care.

  • Optimized animal rescue on site: To be able to rescue and transport injured, sick and distressed animals even better, we have brought an animal rescue vehicle on site - the team on site was introduced by the Swiss team

Dream team for the welfare of the animals: Hand in hand, the SUST animal welfare workers from Switzerland worked together with the Romanian SUST teams

Thank you to all animal welfare workers and veterinarians of the SUST for this great and successful effort.

An equally big thank you is due to the supporters, patrons and donors for their valuable contribution to sustainable, professional and serious animal welfare work. Their commitment makes these missions for animals in need possible.
