Polish Charity Launched A Social Campaign Aimed To Fight Against Pets’ Abandonment
Polish charity “Karmimy Psiaki” (literally: We feed dogs) launched a social campaign named “11. You shall not abandon your pet”. Few Polish celebrities engaged in the project, being depicted as abandoned dogs – tied to a tree, dumped from a speeding car, buried alive. Authors hope these controversial materials will stop many people from hurting their pets.
From June to August number of dogs in Polish shelters rises about 20-25 %, in comparison to other months. The high rise of abandonments is caused by a very simple reason – lots of dogs’ owners go on vacation and have no idea what to do with their pets, so they just dump them.
To draw attention to this repeating problem, the foundation asked celebrities for help. Six Polish stars: actress Natasza Urbanska, dancer Michal Pirog, TV presenter Marzena Rogalska, model Rafal Maslak, models Kamila Szczawinska and Sylwia Nowak took part in a photo shoot. They were photographed in the same conditions as abandoned dogs go through.

It's a really powerful campaign... But it's more about torture than about abandonment, no ?

If I saw anyone doing this I would bite them. The person who would abandon their bet should be the one tied up!!!!

Wow! These images are very moving.. The best thing about this project is that they not only try to draw people's attention to the problem but they also ave an idea how to change the way things are. This foundation a whie ago started online fundrising (https://wspieram.to/nieporzucaj) in order to collect the money for a website containing a database of hotels for animals and animal-friendly places, for those who don't know what to do with their pet (for example) during holidays and whose mind may cross an idea of abandoning a dog or cat.
