Dalida is a lawyer from Sarajevo who has been involved in
protection of animals for more than 15 years and she is one of
the rescuers and activists with most experience in Bosnia. Dalida
takes care of 150 rescued dogs and 10 cats and this FundRazr is
set up to help them to buy food for dogs and cats that have been
saved from horrors of Bosnian streets and pounds.
The most important news of all the time is that Dalida is
setting up a real rescue center for all rescues and all of them
are going to be placed in new rescue center during so it is
essential to raise enough funds to buy enough food for all animals.
Dalida is even preparing a real rescue center for rescues so
there won't be pension fees anymore. It is very difficult and
stressful to take care of so many rescues every day not to mention
and that she drives all animals to veterinarians, deal with
administration for animals, prepare animals for transport, take
care of sick animals and try to live a normal life at the same
time.
Of course food is essential and the most important
thing that must be provided for saved animals.
Also, Dalida was one of the lobbyists who were involved in
legislating of Animal Protection and Welfare Act in Bosnia, in
2009. Dalida investigates cases of animal abuse, as well as cases
of obstructions to implement Animal Protection and Welfare Act.
Her activities are focused on enforcement of the Animal
Protection and Welfare Act, presenting practical legal
solutions in animal welfare area, collecting of evidences,
filing criminal reports, and constant lobbying that Bosnian
authorities implement the Animal Protection and Welfare Act.
Dalida also acts as a liason with international animal welfare
advocates.
She follows all activities of police,
the prosecutor's office, and veterinary inspectors, in order to
prosecute and punish people who torture and kill animals. She also
participates in media debates about animal welfare.

The most important thing is to keep Dalida's rescues safe,
fed, healthy, off the streets, and away from the illegal dog
catchers until they are adopted.
The number of rescued
animals is constantly changing due to finding homes for them,
but the numbers grow with new cases of injured, sick or abused dogs.
Dalida must buy food for all animals that are going to be
placed in the rescue center and help is needed asap.
Food costs (with new better prices that Dalida has
arranged for food):
* 10 kg of dry food = 6 Euros
(average meal for one dog = 500 gr - depends on size and weight):
150 dogs*500 gr=75 kg per day
7.5 bags of 10 kg=45 Euros per
day
45 Euros*30 days=1350 kg
*Wet food for dogs: 300
Euros
*Food for cats: 200 Euros
*Meat, bread, fish,
other cooked food: 500 Euros
Total: 2350 Euros
