Dear members,
dear adopters,
dear interested parties,

we would like to inform you that a new board of directors has been elected and that the animal welfare work started by Ute Hübner will be continued in her spirit.
We are looking forward to a constructive, purposeful and respectful cooperation within the team.

The necessary permission for mediations § 11 TierschutzG is applied for at the responsible veterinary office.
We are looking forward to your inquiries.

Your team of the Tierfreunde Europa e.V.

From our budget we were able to send dog and cat food to Spain to the Associació Amics dels Animals de Flix y Ampare shelters.

The food was urgently needed there.
Fortunately, you can place an order in Germany, which ZooPlus then delivers to Spain.

The hungry mouths were very happy about it and of course the employees too.

The tiny Finley was simply left in front of the veterinary practice in Baeza with a hernia and three broken legs.

No one knew anything about the little man's origin - a complaint was filed with the police.

The hernia was operated on in an emergency and the legs have to be operated on in the veterinary hospital in Jaén for 1600 €.

You can find out everything - including the list of donors who wanted to help the little guy - by clicking on Finley's photo.

Donations for our partner animal home Albayassa in Baeza

We were able to send donations to our partner animal home Albayassa in Baeza in Andalusia in July and August.

Since we all work free of charge, non-profit and voluntary, all donations, income from mediation and other income flow into animal welfare, e.g. B. for feed orders.
Every cent goes to animal welfare!

Donations in July and August 2020 for Albayyasa

This time Pablo and his team were able to bring a lot of donations to Andalusia again, which were collected thanks to your help.
This time there was a lot of food, blankets, toys and also tubs that unfortunately weren't photographed.

In addition, we were again able to send 28 large bags of high-quality food (24 for adult dogs and 4 x puppy food), as well as three small bags, as well as 8 x dog shampoo and two claw scissors to Baeza via Zooplus.

As always, everything is urgently needed in Albayyasa and the team there would like to thank you very much for the great help.

The next donations go to our new animal shelter project in Berga. Mainly feed is needed here.

Donate to El Camino in June 2020

Thanks to your great help, many donations were brought back to El Camino.
To the delight of Carmen and her team, a lot of food, toys, blankets, tubs etc. could be provided for the protégés.

Donations are urgently needed there, because the number of dogs and cats has declined somewhat, but there are still many hungry mouths to stuff.

Carmen doesn't know if she can stay in the shelter for a long time, because the city of Alcala la Real makes demands on the site - the talks are already underway

Hello dear animal friends,
here comes the report from the Breisgau weekly report, which writes very vividly, that the animal shelters, especially in southern Europe, are suffering a lot, because all people, especially in Spain, have a total curfew and can only look after their animals with a lot of discipline. - There may only be one person in the refugio.
Just click on the photo and learn more about it.

Dear animal friends,
On April 6th, 2020 the Badische Zeitung also got involved in the topic "the corona pandemic with effects on aid transport to bring rescued dogs from southern Europe to Germany".
Here is the article:

Ortenaukreis
The corona pandemic also has negative consequences for animal welfare. Dog transports, for example in the Ortenaukreis and in the Breisgau, cannot currently take place.
The animal welfare friends Europe, who arrange foster homes for animals from Spain and Romania in Germany, also had to cancel their animal transport planned for May.
"If the already mediated animals are not allowed to leave, then our partners in Spain and Romania will not have any vacancies in the kennel," explains Ute Hübner from Simonswald from the board team of the Association Animal Friends Europe. There are currently more dogs than usual in a foster home in Kappel-Grafenhausen, because mediation within Germany is difficult due to the crisis.
Ute Hübner founded the animal friends Europe association last year. The young association currently has 32 members. The partner animal shelters in Spain and Romania are mainly home to dogs that were saved by animal rights activists. If the dogs are healthy and ready to leave, they are presented in online portals for mediation. "We try to describe the dog very precisely and put video recordings on the portal that make it easier to show the character of the dog," says Hübner. In addition to arranging the dogs, the association also supports the partner animal shelters with donations in cash and in kind.
At the beginning of March there was a transport
At the beginning of March, the animal welfare friends in Europe made it possible to transport 19 dogs and a cat, who had been adopted in Breisgau and the Ortenaukreis or who stayed at foster homes such as the one in Kappel-Grafenhausen until they also found a suitable owner. "It is a very touching moment when the new keepers are waiting for their charges to be transported and to receive their new family member," says Hübner. Your association plans to mediate 100 to 150 animals annually. For correct and transparent work in animal welfare abroad, there are traces, a European information system in which veterinary offices are linked to one another in terms of data technology. "This way you know where the dogs come from and where they are going," explains Hübner. The traces system is designed to prevent the import of sick dogs and the illegal import of dogs by dog ​​dealers. ”
