Over 200 dogs found at a private dog shelter in the commune of Suraia, in eastern Romania, have been relocated with the help of NGOs and individuals after images showing alleged acts of cruelty were made public on social media. Many of the dogs were sick, and not all may yet survive, according to media reports.
The images showed how a dog was mistreated and later euthanized at the shelter, reportedly managed by a veterinarian. The administrator of the dog shelter and two employees have been placed under judicial control following the searches carried out in this case.
