This is one of the most heartbreaking stories of Hasdal.
This German shepherd arrived with small injuries in his legs caused by thorns and grass of the kind you encounter in the fields/forest. They were very painful, the dog couldn’t stand on his own, but they were not life threatening.
Knowing that Ismail Ay, the veterinarian of Hasdal would NOT bother treating those injuries and that the infection would quickly spread through the body we requested to take the animal to a private clinic immediately. This request was refused. Ismail Ay wanted to deal with the case himself… he then proceeded to drop the dog in an isolation cage and told the volunteers to stay away.
Days later even Ismail Ay was horrified when he entered the cage. The most disgusting smell immediately hit him on the face and spread throughout the shelter. It’s was the smell of rotten flesh and death. The dog lied there in a pool of blood ozzing from his legs. He was howling in absolute pain. Massive infection had spread throughout the body. Ismail Ay then finally gave an order: Take that disgusting dog away from here!
The dog was rushed to a private clinic where he died soon afterwards. There was nothing anyone could do. He died a horrifying death caused by the professional negligence of Ismail Ay, the veterinarian at Hasdal.
Call Kadir Topbas, the Mayor of Istanbul NOW. Let him know the entire world is looking at this same in their computer screens and DEMAND the immediate stop of all operations at the Hasdal shelter.
