SDHS President helping Ukrainian refugees fleeing with their pets
Показать описание
Ukrainian refugees facing the uncertainty of war continue to cross the border into Poland while holding on tight to their beloved animals.
“They’ve lost everything in their lives. We want to make sure they don’t lose their animals too,” said Dr. Gary Weitzman, President and CEO of San Diego Humane Society, before boarding a plane Sunday.
He is now at the Ukrainian border, joining a big humanitarian effort to provide care to refugees and their pets.
“It’s really stressful, there’s no question,” said Dr. Weitzman. “What these people have been through is really unbelievable. It’s hard to even imagine this happening in our lifetimes.”
Dr. Weitzman brought medical and veterinary supplies to the busiest border crossing in western Ukraine in the Polish town of Medyka. He has teamed up with IFAW, the International Fund for Animal Welfare, an organization that has tents set up at the border to provide veterinary care.
