Utterly heartbreaking. Poor Madelina. Bless all those who are trying to help,her.
Noted and donation made. Thanks Florence.

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 9:18 pm
Thank you so much for the forward Michelle. I have to admit I could only watch 30 seconds of the video before I broke down.
I sent an email to office@apam.ro to see what is needed to help get this sweet angel the medical attention she needs. I have also sent out the link to family and friends. I will let you know the outcome of the email.
Now with that said...I would love to find the SOB's that did such a hreatless and cruel thing to this angel and give them a talking to with my bat. Than we'll see if hurting an innocent animal is so funny.

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 9:21 pm
PLEASE SHARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will do ALL I can...
while I am crying my eyes out...
Madelina will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 9:22 pm
I donated 50 Euros which is about $66.00 U.S. dollars. I urge all of you to send what ever you can to help little Madelina.

When you visit the APAM there are photos of other animals in desperate need of help as well. They appear to be a caring and reputable animal welfare society. Please open your hearts.....and if you can, your wallets. TY.

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 10:07 pm
you can trust apam. there are care2 members who have had personal dealings with them. ty michelle.

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 10:23 pm
Noted Tks. Michelle... I can't put into words what I'd like to do to the B___t__d that did this to this beautiful dog.. The humans that do this sort of thing should all be euthinized.. May this precious Angel pull through.. Kudos to all that help this precious dog...

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 10:37 pm
How could any human, no let me re-phrase that this person could not be called human, they are a worthless piece of garbage taking up space on this earth, do such a thing to such a sweet dog, just watching her walking on her front paws brought tears to my eyes. I will definitely make a donation.

Wednesday September 26, 2012, 11:04 pm
this is so heartbreaking. the person who did this, i'd like to break their face & every bone in their body & then dip their body in acid & slowly watch them die. thnx for the forward Michelle. i'll do what i can to help & donate.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 12:36 am
Lord, have mercy! Completely appalling! I'm agree with Evelyn, the humans that do this sort of thing should all be euthanized ... I will do all I can ... Thank you Florence for posting and thanks Michelle for the forward.

noted with horror

Thursday September 27, 2012, 1:14 am
As far as justice goes, I'm with Gysele--first, break every bone--then dip them in acid--that would be justice!
I admit, I could not watch the video--I started to, but simply could not!
I will give, I will pray, and I will share this so-sad story of this precious baby.
Surely, among all of us, there is something concrete we can do to help this too-small Animal Welfare Organization. How are they to help the day-to-day animals much less the emergencies if they haven't the necessary resources in place?

Thursday September 27, 2012, 2:42 am
Noted, and shared, and will try to make a donation...I could not look at that clip on YouTube however...This piece of garbage, should have the same thing done to him...I hope Karma catches up to this f**king thing disguised as a Human Being...I wish every bad and painful thing possible on this scum...

Thursday September 27, 2012, 3:02 am
This is too horrible for words!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 3:10 am
All that we can give this little innocent angel will help.

May the Almighty grant the monster that did this crime no more no less what he deserves!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 3:12 am
Noted and shared - cannot bring myself to watch - show this monster absolutely no mercy, beat him to a flipping pulp do whatever it takes to rid the earth of low life rubbish like this. Absolute bastard - he doesn't deserve to live. I am so angry that this like this happen to our beloved animals - are we not supposed to be protecting them.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 3:20 am
How can she eat, she'll need a jaw operation. Sure hope someone with a bigger wallet comes along. At least one leg should be put back in a walking position. Than you for showing the world man's miserable actions and yet on the other hand those that always clean up after the dirty bastards.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 3:20 am

Thursday September 27, 2012, 4:44 am
my heart is broken (again) for this poor dog, I hope people will contribute whatever they can, and i want the one who did this to spend the rest of his miserable "life" in prison!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 5:31 am
It is unbelievable that people can be so cruel and unfeeking to a beautiful innocent animal. Hope they are able to help her heal and live out the rest of her life free of pain. I cried when I saw this. Those that did this to her deserve the same treatment.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 6:07 am
Sadly noted with tears streaming down my face for beautiful innocent Madelina whose suffering and pain is unbearable to think of.Donation of 60 euro's sent via paypal ~ Confirmation No: 3WE31349HT966351v i wish it could be more.My heart and prayers are with this precious little dog after watching the video,horrific injuries that i pray can be healed with tender loving care,APAM is a wonderful caring welfare organisation as i have donated before,too upset to write anymore.THANK YOU dear Michelle and Florence for this posting so we can do what we can to help dear Madelina.A big thank you to all who care for our precious animals.Liz Xx

Thursday September 27, 2012, 7:06 am
Poor little soul! Thank God that she is safe now and that she survived, there are many that are not so lucky. Unfortunately, my country doesn't have a paypall system, so I can't help her. I'll pray that she gets well and the bustard who didi that is in jail for a lifetime.
I am so sad and angry, I can't believe that people can do such horrible things.
It's however comforting to see you, the good people on care2, trying your best to help the animals, thank you so much.

I wanted to give you guys an update. i reciebed an emial back letting me no that madelina is going to be removed from her "so call rescuer". I was also imofrmed that for this angel to recieve the medical attention she needs to be able to eat is around $1,500 dollars. Altogether her medical bills will reach $4,500. So with my brother, friends and co-workers we doonated $1,500. Lets hope that will at least get this angel started on her important medical treatments and put her at some ease.

Thanks for the post Florence and fwds from Michelle and Philip. These owners should be beaten the same way as this poor helpless dog. They are cruel-they are cowards and beneath contempt. While I'm thrilled to see the update from Mikah..my blood boils nontheless. Creatures such as theses should live out their miserable lives in a jail cell and it's more important than ever that people contact their local reps to end the suffering inflicted on animals. I will do what I can and pray for Madelina

Thursday September 27, 2012, 10:00 am

Thursday September 27, 2012, 10:08 am
couldn't watch it.Whatever could a dog do to deserve this torture? Not anything I can think of.
Sometimes I wish these abused animals would fight back and give their attackers some deep wounds.The heart light is beaten but never fades.Dogs are too good for many unworthy owners. I would require a class and license for the human
Instead of a citizen dog certificate there should be a requirements for an owner to pass a humanity class.
Name on record in the event of this magnitude.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 10:40 am
Please help if you possibly can. Thank you.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 10:49 am
How could anyone treat this beautiful dog so atrociously?! I hope she recovers swiftly and finds a loving new home soon. As for the vile piece of scum who mistreated her so viciously, I hope someone dishes out the same savage beating to them.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 11:39 am
Beat the owner beat him beat him beat him because the only way dickheads get things is to do it back.....when when will the world learn that u have to punish thee with the crime they have committed HOW ELSE WILL THEY KNOW HOW IT FEELS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I disgusted........

Noted. Thanks so much, Florence. This is just heartbreaking. I'm not in a position to be able to donate though I wish I were. Thank you to Milkah Savage for the update and your generous donation with your family. I hope that more donations come in and this little dog gets all the surgeries she needs.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 12:11 pm
Poor little Madelina!! My heart breaks for her!!
Her owner deserves the worse punisment possible and to be blocked from EVER owning another animal...
I shared this on Facebbok and in e-mails!! I sure hope she gets the funds she needs!! She looks like such a sweetie!!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 12:19 pm
Poor, poor baby, I think all of the comments above have said enough to how despicable the person who did this is.

Everyone who has donated should receive a big thank you, but Milkah and her friends should get a special thank you for their $1,500 donation which will hopefully pay for Madalina to eat.

I also have sent a donation and will share on FB.

If you can't donate, SHARE! You could send it along a chain which could pay for her operations!

Noted with thanks Florence.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 12:35 pm

I never will understand people who do such a thing to a dog like this. Some way we must have laws made to protect our 4 legged friends. The person who did this need to be in jail and tied to a pole and wiped with a belt until he bleeds. I wish I was so rich that I could help every animal mistreated, but I'm not so I will pass this on to friend and just maybe we'll have a well off friend help pay the bill? Dogs are truly mans best friend...LarryD

I would love the bastards full details who did this as they need payback!!!
An eye for an eye!!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 2:21 pm
I can´t see the video, but only the fact to read about this atrocity breaks my heart. These criminal bastards should udergo exactly the same as they did to the poor dog!!!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 2:55 pm
Can we please execute the bastard now?

Thursday September 27, 2012, 3:25 pm
I am at a loss for words. I would donate my tears if they had any value. Noted, shared, and twittered. All I can do now is pray for her healing and a chance at a life filled with love and compassion.

Thursday September 27, 2012, 4:04 pm
Unbelievable...I hope the bastard burns in hell & his children, grandchildren & theirs to follow!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 4:16 pm
Please please find the monster who did this to this baby. Studies show that monsters who do this to animals move on to humans, (harming, abusing and killing) (children and the elderly those that can't protect them selves)If we all donate we can help this poor baby and others who have been abused by monsters.

Omg when i saw this video i start crying ! This poor little sweet dog i feel very sorry for him . His stupid owner deserved to be treated that way hopefully somebody will punished him for that !!! SICK STUPID MAN!!!

Thursday September 27, 2012, 4:59 pm
Noted! and Patricia don't feel bad at all as I will never view a video that displays abuse of any kind of an animal . There is IMHO absolutely no need to put oneself through that emotional heartbreak and severe anger for me. I do not in any way shape or form find a need to do so as what ever horrible thing we can imagine in this sick and dying world filled with evil, is happening all around the world. It serves NO purpose. I just sign and donate when and where I can and when I can't i always pray that God will honor all that we do do in the signing of these petitions and note and share so that enough people that are made aware of their needs, god will put that person in place to assist with all their needs. I firmly believe in this!

Of all the creatures that were made, man is the most detestable. Of the entire brood he is the only one--the solitary one--that possesses malice. That is the basest of all instincts, passions, vices--the most hateful. He is the only creature that has pain for sport, knowing it to be pain. Also--in all the list he is the only creature that has a nasty mind.
- Mark Twain's Autobiography

Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it. It is a trait that is not known to the higher animals.
- "The Lowest Animal"

Thursday September 27, 2012, 7:18 pm
Beyond deranged!! The state of human mental health is going down the tubes. Just look at all the stories out there. When people don't have a war to fight, they take it upon themselves to kill and/or torture animals and other humans. Very sad.....

Thursday September 27, 2012, 8:12 pm
I cannot express my anger enough at who is responsible for this horror---I AM BEYOND OUTRAGED---What is being done to prosecute this deranged MONSTER so called--"owner??" Has this poor suffering baby seen a vet---being given any pain med???? I am so upset!!!!!!!!~ I am wondering what is happening to the human race=THIS IS NOT HUMANITY AS I KNOW IT!~ I AM PRAYING FOR MADELINA-will do what I can~~~~

Friday September 28, 2012, 2:00 am
I don't understand how anyone could do this. We must have animal abuse registers now. Our societies (including our animals) must be protected against anyone who would do such a horrific thing.

Friday September 28, 2012, 2:04 am
I couldn't have watched that either, Michelle, seeing that poor sweet injured scared Animal being coaxed out of it's cage...I would have turned into a puddle right here...

Friday September 28, 2012, 2:35 am
I have just donated via paypal.
Who will gain custody of poor Madelina?
Please do not let her go back to the bastard animal abuser

Friday September 28, 2012, 2:59 am
Noted. I am afraid that I can't donate as I have too many rescued cats to feed, but I will pass along the line.. iIam afraid that I chickened out of watchng the video as I have enough imagination of what suffering has gone on without filling my brain with more animal suffering.!.. I KNOW that things like this must mpst ;likely be shown to try and raise money, but I do worry that videos depicting suffering animals will be seen by sick disgusting people who acutally hunt this site to try and see these videos... Do you think that people might donate with just hearing the story? Some of my friends won't do any Care 2 work as they are too horrified by the distresssing picures and sad or horrifying videos. Do you think there is any alternative than showing distressing videos? Any helpful comments appreciated, as I am concerned that we are supporting perverted creeps by mistake. The thought really bothers me.

Friday September 28, 2012, 3:54 am
impossible to believe that such inhumane beings are still walking this planet but everyday we get some reminders that the ones who should be dead are roaming free, continuing to inflict such injustices upon gods creatures. i will continue to pray for these poor voiceless creatures and for due justice upon such evil perpetrators.

Friday September 28, 2012, 4:16 am
I just had a total knee replacement and have been in excruciating pain. I can't even begin to fathom how this poor little animal must feel with it's legs twisted so bad and no jaw! I hope justice will prevail for this innocent creature.

Friday September 28, 2012, 5:20 am

I am totally devastated. I have no clue how this can happen. I do not understand where this evil comes from. There are no words in human languages that could possibly express the depth of the anguish. Only deep feelings of horror and despair that surface from within at the sight of this being and the thought of what this angel suffered. I shudder, I shudder, I shudder. The monster who committed this heinous act must reside in a very very dark ugly place somewhere his psyche. Really words are too poor, only feelings can speak.

I will do the best I can and forward this horror to my contacts.

This speech is the best speech I have ever heard. Worth one's time to listen. .

Friday September 28, 2012, 5:48 am
Sorry, could not bring myself to watch it.

Friday September 28, 2012, 5:48 am
i heard about this poor dog from someone who works at apam, and she told me this poor thing has been like this for 6 YEARS!!!
my friend who has seen all types of cruelty there in Romania said she cried all day after seeing this horror...
i donate to apam monthly, they are indeed a trustworthy and awesome group of people...
\My thanks go out to Florence and all who have donated, and those that couldn't who have shared this story.

And to Nancy S...So sorry to hear of your pain - GET WELL SOON!!!

Friday September 28, 2012, 7:28 am

Noted. I could not being myself to watch the video. Just cannot stand what some humans do to animals. Hope this very sick human will get some justice. And also that this poor animal gets the medical help he needs and a good home.

Friday September 28, 2012, 10:35 am
It is wonderful to see so many people donating to help this poor dog. It would be nice to see how much has been collected, does anyone have an update yet?

Friday September 28, 2012, 10:53 am
..for 6 yrs...unbelievable. Why in hell are we only NOW getting the call for help and why has this poor thing not gotten medical treatment EARLIER?? Don't tell me Madelina wasn't able to eat for years...
And regarding the video (watching/not watching): Like many here, I of course did NOT watch either, instead I did what I often do: I scrolled down fast to get to the donation link, which in this case was below the video so it was inevitable to go to YouTube first, and while the sound immediately started I just listened all the way through. I'm glad I did as that way I heard the loving, soft words spoken, just like Michelle said. No images-no heartbreak.

Words cannot describe my thoughts!!! May God watch over Madelina.. Pray that sufficient money is collected for her surgery. Those who inflicted the pain and injuries upon this dog, will rot in h...............!!! Try the ASPCA International. The might be able to provide funds; plus perhaps bring this dog to the US. Need the correct site/ or phone # for donations..

It is truly scary and disturbing to see people so sick and psychotic. The level of cruelty just keeps getting worse. It makes me not want to live in this world if I cannot protect all the creatures. I just wish sometimes the justice system was eye for an eye.

Friday September 28, 2012, 7:50 pm
Absolutely unacceptable ! We can not stop trying to crack down on people that do this and FIGHT for harsher punishment. Sometimes I disagree with Ghandi when he say's "an eye for an eye would make the whole world blind" sometimes an eye for an eye might just be the only justice!

Gladly Shared on Facebook.
Couldn't watch & cant afford to donate but prayers are with this baby & this great organization.

Friday September 28, 2012, 9:10 pm
People like this do not have the right to own any kind of pet. Very disturbing.

Friday September 28, 2012, 9:41 pm
I cant donate any more money this month.....I would borrow to donate... if it was towards the owners criminal prosecution

Friday September 28, 2012, 10:39 pm
Thank you for sharing this one, sharing everywhere and helping!!!

To all that aren't familiar with PayPal, you do not need an account to donate...you may sign in as a guest.
You can pay through a credit card or debit card..or you can put money in an account to be used as needed...

I have an account, and i am so thankful they don't let us overdraft..wish my debit card worked the same way, then my money might last longer than to the middle of the month (if i'm lucky)
Animal rescuers never have to worry about retiring...they can never afford it! lol

Poor dog, how sick this is!

I did not see the video as it is just too distressing. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Saturday September 29, 2012, 4:20 pm
my heart hurts, poor that dog. I will donate next week

Saturday September 29, 2012, 4:52 pm
What was done to this poor dog needs to be done to the person that did this! I can't even say the idgit is lower than a snake's belly cause a snake isn't even that low. What goes around comes around--they will get theirs in the end. May angels be with that precious Madelina--God love her.

Sunday September 30, 2012, 3:32 am
will NEVER EVER understand how anyone can do this to such a poor, loving, depending and trusting creature. This is pure horror!

The offender should be treated the same, so he know how it feels - and I bet he'll never do this again!

I wonder... every body donating.... why is the dog not looked after now ? where is the veterinary doctor to splint the dogs leg ? Eveline

Tuesday October 2, 2012, 2:50 pm
And why is the abuser not punished?

Tuesday October 2, 2012, 2:54 pm
Capitalist psychopathology is the root of almost all violence directed against animals and people.

Tuesday October 2, 2012, 2:57 pm
The poor dog needs medical attention in the first place, can you show this on u tube please?

Tuesday October 2, 2012, 3:07 pm
This video is on you tube already if you got to the story at the top of the page there is a small green rectangle that says visit site if you go to it and click on it ot will take you straight to you tube where the video is Eveline ( I LOVE your name its pretty) Hope that helps you

I just received this email from APAM regarding Madalina -

Following investigations, the vet discovered many problems with grandma Madalina, who is a dog of over 10 years old: she has also cataracts, a big and ugly hernia, from the bottom side of the jaw a part is missing, one back leg is sprained and the front one is sprained following a trauma too old to be able to do something more, the bones callused as they are unfortunately. We don’t mention anymore about the fact that she was full of ticks even in ears.

All together do not sound very good and within the next days we wait more news from the vet. No matter if anything can be done or not for the Madalina’s jaw and legs, she will be loved and cared for in APAM’s sanctuary!

Tuesday October 2, 2012, 3:49 pm
They also included a video of Madalina eating-

Thursday October 4, 2012, 12:43 pm
No words.....

Saturday October 6, 2012, 11:09 am
Hope that they will be punished for what they did!!!!

Sunday October 7, 2012, 8:44 am
Thank you for helping to make this story go viral. Disgusting. In my prayers.

Sunday October 7, 2012, 6:05 pm
This poor poor baby ,what type of human being is capable of this cruelty. It's beyond me -----totally .
God bless this little soul.

Sunday October 7, 2012, 10:31 pm
I dont understand why they made that poor dog step out of her cage when they can see her feet are broken...

Saturday October 13, 2012, 12:24 am
OMG How can people be so cruel? These monsters should be severly punished. Maybe in the same way, maybe then they'll know how it feels to be treated in such a way. Sadly noted. Thanks Florence.

UPDATE ON MADALINA that I was asked to post for Cristina:

Today I received an update from Cristina Zuba regarding Madalina. It reads as follows:

Dear Friends:

This small and innocent soul, following the investigations, proved to have suffered an entire life! All her wounds are old and impossible to be repaired anymore. It is sad, but the good side is that she reached to us at least in her old time where we can offer her a lot of love and care for the rest of her life. Unfortunately, an eventual adoption is not possible for her because travelling is too risky for her health and here, in our country for sure, her chances for adoption are zero!

Madalina is not in pain and she receives daily vitamins to enforce her and special food. Not even the hernia can be operated on because the anestesia could be fatal for her,

She also wrote this to Madalina:

"Our dear Madalina, we are so sorry that we didn't find you sooner to help you. We are so sorry that we cannot find who did all this to you, but we promise you that you'll be so happy here with us and we'll love you so much that you'll forget all you've been through!"


With love and many thanks for your support.

Victoria, Cristina & Madalina
