Anita Claydon Mims, welcome to Lag, I have only been on here a few months & although I am not in a position to help personally there are a lot of dedicated people on here. Viktor was born to save Animals & every penny he gets clearly is spent on getting treatment & a good home for these furbabies. Just wait & you will see what this group is all about. What it’s NOT About is just collecting money & dumping them on the first person to put there hand up. Viktor is very thorough to make sure they get the best ever loving home. Well that’s just my ten peneth lol, wait around & you will see 🙂

Anita Claydon Oh I forgot, LET’S ADOPT ROCKS 🙂

Sandra Nutellamonster Nueffelpriemel Good morning Mims!! =-)
I was soooo thrilled when i read your post – because you sound like someone who is concerned about things that matter and willing to put in what is needed to offer real help!!! And this actually is what sums up this group Let’s Adopt Global.
I am a normal person with the same questions like you – wanting to know that my money and effort is NOT swallowed by meaningless administration time wasting staff. A life is at stake. I want to see ACTIONS not words!!!
When i joined this group i was astonished how swiftly and most efficiently they make things work!!! There is no time wasting. No meaningless blabla – but ACTION, as the animals mostly do not have much time as it is! There is a huge network with people all over the world, from all kinds of background – all focusing on thing FIRST – the wellbeing of that suffering animal!!!
I myself adopted Moses just a few weeks ago from NCAS in North Carolina. He was supposed to be gassed. Nobody would step up. LET’S ADOPT DID!!! I was vetted thoroughly not only by Viktor, but also talked to everyone involved helping getting Moses out of there!
Let’s Adopt do not use just anybody – but people with enough experience to make things WORK!!!
If you decide to help them – you can most certainly be assured, that whatever contribution you are willing to give – it will be used SOLELY for those active rescues and the costs involved with the animals. We are all helping and working together because we BELIEVE that things can be done!!! And we all do it for free – for those ones who cannot help themselves.
Have a look around on this page – and find those videos and photos Let’s Adopt has been tagged in – ALL HAPPY ENDINGS of animals that made it!!! If you need proof – look for that happy tail and that smile in that face of a saved dog or cat – THAT is ALL the proof someone should need to want to be a part of this amazing group!!!!
Have a fantastic day – and THANK YOU for wanting to help!!! =-)

Julia L-a Hi Mims, I adopted two stray kitties from Let´s Adopt Bulgaria: Rijko and Mira! I was in contact with their responsible person, Mariya, about the kitties and also with Victor. The communication was highly gratifying and pleasant, everything worked out successfully (transport, vaccination…). These people give their heart´s blood for the animals! Go to Let´s Adopt Bulgaria´s site and see with your very eyes…beside Rijko´s and Mira´s story…so many amazing stories! Greetings from Austria!http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.163732833660279.35445.161250077241888&type=1 and for Mira:

Michelle Jones Hi Mims, I’ll try to answer… I’m a long-time supporter of LAG. 1) Motives, to save the animals typically thought too difficult to save by traditional rescue orgs, the disabled, the severly sick or injured etc, and we have witnessed some miracle rescues where dogs and cats have been given zero chance of recovery by medical professionals, those animals have gone on to actually make full recoveries, with paralysed animals walking again for example, purely because of the experience of Viktor and his team, knowing the scope of advanced treatments available. 2) Housing is done via foster carers unless a clinic stay is needed. Foster caring ensures that these former street cats and dogs are introduced to a home environment before adoption and then their character assessed so a home that is the right fit for both cat/dog and person can be found. 3) Financial assurances – every penny is spent on the rescue operations themselves, and Viktor uses his own business to further support the rescues as often there are shortfalls in the rescue costs. In summary, being a member of the LAG group is a bit like being on an amazing rollercoast with it’s emotional ups and downs from the hardship of the rescue to the thrill of the result, Viktor is passionate, funny, rude, yet above all else has the biggest heart and he has an incredible amount of energy and dering do to achieve great results for even the most difficult of cases. Honestly, you couldn’t find a better rescue group to support. Hope this helps 🙂

Let’s Adopt! Global Gratifying and pleasant? You must have spoken to Mariya… 🙂 ahahha.. un beso

Mims Dot Mosby Thank you for the testimonies, you have given me much to think about. Yes I am a person with a huge heart for animals and I am sure that you would all agree a person willing to part with charitable monies for a great cause would be remiss not to ask these questions. I shall sit and read thoroughly and then certainly get back to you for further collaboration and discussion. Thank You

Julia L-a Jejeje, asi es! Muy amable y agradable persona! Besito:-)

Diana Zhivkova Mims, a quick note from me – just stay around for a while. Follow the page, follow the posts, follow the stories. You will love Let’s Adopt and may be become one of our great supporters…the way I did. 🙂

Mims Dot Mosby I will but I must attend other duties for now – I will read and watch all that is here – thank you for the reply

Mariya Kutreva -Williamson Hi Mims, a quick answer from Let’s Adopt! Bulgaria 🙂 Our motives? Every life saved gives you an incredible feeling, impossible to explain. You know that without you a soul would have died. We find foster homes for our rescues, where they spend the time until we look for adopters, with us ourselves fostering the most difficult cases (for ex. I have a paralyzed kitty in my home at the moment). We take great measures in ensuring they go to a good home, by laboriously reviewing their facebook accounts, looking through photos, numerous skype and phone calls where we discuss their experience with animals, their home environment, current animals, living habits, and except for international adoptions – always a meeting in person with the adopter. With international adoptions we cannot do that obviously, but we do not mass-export animals, and we are 100% sure where they go to and what happens to them. We have strict rules for adoption and not everyone passes those – animals must go to a home where there already is one animal, where they will be fed a perfect diet, and the home must be non-smoking. We stay in touch with the new family and ask for photos from the new place, which we add to the facebook albums of our fur-babies. Please have a look through our albums at the link I gave in the beginning of my comment – you will see the full history of each case, in English as well, photos and everything. Thank you for wanting to help. ♥

Alexandra Molitor A few months ago I found this group. Here are animals with violations and cruel destinies. Here you fight for animals that had no chance to life without this group. Here miracles happen. From each animal, you can read the story. If my English was better I would write you 100 pages of reasons that speak for LA. i adopted a paralyzed cat named SOL . he was not alive without viktor, because paralyzed animals have no chance in the most countrys. You can see the stories from all animals in the let´s Adopt Photo album.And you can see the stories from the dogs/cats which was rescued from the gas-chamber. For this rescue group i would give my last penny then i know everything is for the animals. here is a video from sol as viktor brought him to germany. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=203823886341811

Cagri Sert hi… i have been a member of this groups for about 4 years, since the very early times of its foundation. i am an adoptant; i adopted a tripod dog and a blind cat among its rescues who were my fosters and i have been a foster too; have fostered around 30 cats and 4-5 dogs during this time. i tend do foster animals that need special care and treatment and that are usually the cases vets here don’t mother to “waste time on”; paralyzed cats, blinds, spine fractures, tripods, chronic illness that need special care etc. i did not start rescuing with LA , have been into animals all my life as many on this page but my whole idea and world of “animal rescue” changed when i met Viktor. i live in Istanbul and so have had the chance to work on some really difficult cases first-hand and in some, vets returned animals to us saying that they had done all they could and the animals would die so we should take him. those cases ended up in great homes only thanks to this group and especially Viktor as if it hadn’t been for his stubborn and insistent research on the cases and doing not only what “we have in hand” but try every way, those animals would have suffered terrible deaths. it is in this groupd that i have witnessed paralyzed animals walk and animals that are expected to die end up better than ever. i can speak so clearly on this as i have witnessed many cases of the group and took part in many them.

the adoption rules may sound harsh and sometimes people don’t get “why” they are there but those rules was not written in one night. it took the group time and experiences with many rescues, mistakes, losses to come up with the current adoption rules that cares only about the well-being of the rescues and nothing else. LA will not give up any of the conditions to please anybody because the issue in hand is a life that is no less important than ours.

Fred Wicks Hi Mims my name is Fred. I live in Canada and I’ve adopted one of the dogs that Viktor rescued from Nashville County. He and his organization not only rescue these animals from certain death but care about the homes he places them in as well. He has four simple but important rules that must be adhered to if you are to adopt one of his rescues (all which Benifits the animal and can be viewed on his link above). Viktor has continued to stay in contact with me now two weeks after the adoption to provide support and ensure compliance of his conditions of adoption. I don’t know how he finds the time between all his rescues but he obviously cares for these animals long after he has rescued them to ensure their continued well being. Viktor is one of those very rare individuals whose entire life is devoted to saving animals nobody else would even care to look at, if you can financially help him save even more I beg you to please do it … For the animals sake!! You won’t find a better animal cause out there because there is only one Viktor

Daniela Beier Hi! I’m working with Viktor and Let’s Adopt for almost two years now. I was involved in finding families and bringing the animals to their adoptants a lot of times since then. The special thing about out group in my eyes is the relationsships we are building. We in germany try to make sure that the new families here and the foster families ins Turkey or Bulgaria get in contact with each other so that everyone involved in the rescue of one animal is taking part in his future life one way or the other. One year ago, I adopted Monica from Let’s Adopt. She has an incredible story which I like to show you here:

Ana Rodriguez Hi Mims, Viktor is Spanish same as me and I can tell you I have never meet in my life somebody like him, he is the bes animal advocate I have ever seen and this little organization has saved more lifes than PETA in one year. I am sure Viktor has sent you lot’s of info by now but I have been following all his work and I have no one little doubt about where the money goes or how is spent but what I admire the most is the incredible amount of people that are working for let’s adopt and make this incredible amount of miracles happend. It will be great to have you as well helping and supporting us. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR INTEREST IN LET’S ADOPT.

Roberta Pozzoli Hi Mims. We recently adopted Benji through LAG. He is an incredible dog who has been through and most importantly survived, more than most humans could deal with. Without LAG he and many many animals would have ended their already desperate lives alone, scared and in pain. What LAG achieve isn’t a miracle, it’s down to hard work, tenacity, a love and respect for animals and the belief that every animal is worth saving. I am constantly inspired and overwhelmed by what they do and they deserve every bit of help and support they get. thank you!

Ranette Thorpe I am in Canada and fostering 3 brothers rescued by LAG from Turkey-2 have been adopted and approved by LAG and myself and both Lag and myself have been in contact with the familes. I have visited them since the adoptions and will continue to see them. All costs to get the boys from Turkey TO BC were paid by LAG-The boys are healthy, vet checked and up to date on shots and neteured again all paid for by LAG….I am honoured to be part of this group and make a difference to any animal that needs help.

K9 C.A.R.E. Inc. Mims, Welcome! We totally understand where you are comming from and appreciate your inquiry. Please allow me to share our personal experiences with Viktor and Let’s Adopt!.
We are an Aquatic Rehab. Facility for dogs, located in the USA. We are a unique facility, one of a very few in the world. Over the years we have worked with other rescue groups to assist with rehab of various dogs. Each experience while rewarding in the sense that we helped the dog, which is what we are all about, the human experience was lacking in some respect. There were a lot of disappointments working with rescues, we were discouraged.
Then Viktor joined our Facebook page.
We give our heart and soul to each and every dog that comes to us. We do everything in our power to ensure the dog is successful, we expect the same from the dog’s humans, whether it be a foster dog, a rescue’s dog, or your own. We quickly saw Viktor was the same…exactly the same. Thus our relationship began… we have never looked back.We do Trauma Foster for LAG. exclusively now. Currently we have with us “Prince Pookie” who was dumped at the gas chamber in North Carolina, with a broken leg, Heartworm positive facing certain death! His leg has been fixed, his heartworm treatment will begin shortly. ALL this has been funded by Let’s Adopt Global.
Please visit our page to see “Prince Pookie’s” pictures:http://tinyurl.com/862kjsd

We were also involved with the Gas Chamber Rescue from North Carolina. Over 100 dogs saved from certain death. Forty of those dogs stopped over at our facility on their way to Canada. By the time they arrived here they had been travelling for close to 11 hours. We were here to give them an overnight break, ensure they were exercised, happy, rested and ready to continue their journey.
The welfare of each and every animal rescued by Let’s Adopt is first and foremost.

To sum it up we choose to work with, and support Let’s Adopt exclusively. Viktor Larkhill is an amazing man, Let’s Adopt Global is a group of incredible people, doing amazing things, worthy of support.
We are please and proud to be associated with Let’s Adopt Global. Mims, I am sure you will feel the same way!
Jill

Mutlu Jones I do agree with the every word that has been said about LEt’s Adopt. I have been supporting (donations only) LA almost since they have been founded. They are one of the rescue group that I give money and know that it will be used to save an animals in need for sure. It has been proven every single time!!! No wasting time, they walk to walk. Never doubtful. I will keep supporting them as long as I am able because LA rocks!

Carolina Fajar What can I say more? Everything I have in mind has already been written by the people above 🙂

My friends and I in Let’s Adopt! (Indonesia) are very blessed (and proud too!) to be part of Let’s Adopt family — we are guided and fully supported by the best people in this rescue and adoption world.

Well, nothing more to say but LA rocks!

Cenk Karayazgan Hi Mims, I’ve been a volunteer in this “family” for about 3 years. I am Turkish citizen, among all the work worldwide Let’s Adopt established in Turkey. Animal movement in our country is so new. I am a clear withness of Let’s Adopt’s role in this movement. Many things have changed in this country and LA played the key role. We still have a very long road to go.
“Saving Lives & Inspiring People”… This is what we do & it is so damn hard thing in a country like ours. “A spanish guy comes and shows & teaches us what to do, how to do and makes miracles come true plus he speaks the truth with heavy words” We make fake news, tell lies and treaten to kill him!!! Yes Viktor is treatened to death many times, a few of them I withnessed with my own eyes. Is he affraid? No, but I would have left this country so many times if I was in his shoes… You need to be nuts if you continue.. Well he is nuts and he doesn’t know what fear is…
Victor is a guy with amazing skills and talent. What makes Let’s Adopt is not only V. himself, this group is a concentration of amazing people giving amazing effort which only “volunteers” can do, with passion and sacrifice.
What is the motives? For me the principle of doing the BEST and never satisfied, always moving furter, better… Only way to make “miracles” come true. I’ve seen LA stop massive killings no one believed we could like in Kas, Bolu, Istanbul Municipality… ect. I’ve seen so much that I would never believe if I didn’t see with my naked eyes.
I’m an architect and my work needs so much time, I don’t work any other organization because in this one every minute and any penny I spend is for an amazing resulted work.
Finance? Well LA is an organization who has ZERO employee (Victor included) Doesn’t matter how much money is collected, always more money is spend because there are much more animals that we can save in Turkey & worldwide. When you see a dog that “only” you can help you don’t count the money in your pocket, you say “I’ll do whatever it takes”.. And it takes always more, and we are always in dept, never balanced.
I have a stray dog sleeping in my bed, sharing my pillow every night for 6 years, I rescued her she was going to die on the streets. If one day I need to give away my dog (maybe if I die) I would know that my dog will be rehomed by Let’s Adopt, and she will be as or more happy & healthy in her new home. I have “no” doubt!! This kind of trust is not easy gained.
As knowing Victor for so long as a friend I want him to stop what he is doing and use his time, skills & talent to his job which will make him happy and rich, he’ll have a great life. But as a Turkish guy trying to do as much for the animals in need, I pray to God for V. to continue doing what he is right now… “Saving lives & inspiring people”Hugs

Susan Seljan Yannacey Hello, I first come accross LAG about a year ago through a friend. I sat at my desk day in and day out watching the great work Viktor and friends were doing. I was amazed at the care, concern and movement of this organization. This group is filled with people who want to do the right thing and help. I don’t donate unless I know for sure that I know that my money is well spent…I give when I can. Because of the awareness that this group has shown me, I do what I can to help save as many lives as I can. LAG has motivated me and opened my eyes. Because of LAG, I got involved about 2 months ago and I am now a proud foster mom of two happy healthy boy kitties…Gabe and Sootie. I can assure you that Viktor is careful who he fosters and adopts too. I have never seen someone so passionate about the work that he does. He is sincere in his battle to save as many lives as he can. I have yet to see him say that a dog or cat is too sick or injured too help…he goes out of his way to do what he can to save them. He has a big heart and I know that he will always do the right thing no matter how hard it is. I never once had to worry how my babies were going to be taken care of…I know that when they go to their forever home, they will be happy.

Isabel Carvalho I second everything that has been said in the posts above. I’ve come to know Viktor as someone who not only has a huge heart for animals (especially the ones that not many other people would even try and rescue) but also someone who manages to motivate and inspire others in a way that things actually get done. I don’t always agree with him but I do admire the way he sticks to his principles, how he deals with questions being asked and the fact that he will always go out of his way to help. He has made LAG a very special group in a very short time.

Yvonne Bollinger This is Angel, an about 12 weeks old kitten when he was convicted to be put to sleep because there was noone who was interested in him. LAG helped to rescue and to get this little guy from Dallas, TX to Germany!! Many of the fantastic and selfless people of LAG helped to give this little life a chance. Viktor although he seems to be all around the world to help the forgotten and miserable creatures never forgot this little one until he managed to get a flight volunteer to get him to his furever home. LAG is doing amazing work and the people working there are extremely extraordinary. First of all they are thinking about the animals and alltogether they are a real awesome and powerful community that is working really global to do as much as is possible and many times even more. I know many organizations who are helping animals but LAG is most remarkable, it is no anonymous thing to work with them; to every answer you get a reply and you will be never forgotten. Exactly like every single animal they already helped and they will be helping in the future. It would be fantastic if you decided to support this organization and become a part of the wonderful and amazing work LAG and every member of them is doing day by day.

Mims Dot Mosby Hello I am back briefly as I have meetings to attend very soon but I am amazed by the stories, granted I have not had time to view them all, however those I have do impress me. I shall continue viewing later this evening. I am curious as to how Viktor can know animals are missing? Keep up the great work, I can understand it is a never ending job unfortunately. Be back in touch very soon.

Lisa Mt The rescue activities of Let’s Adopt Global! aim and succeed in providing freedom and equality for animals. Countless rescues who’s lives were literally on the balance. Those abandoned and completely left alone, were given a wonderful and loving home. It’s often said “the best things in life are free”… but that is only one part of the entire dynamics…. since the animals’ welfare under LAG’s protective shields, is achieved with hard work, struggle and pain… still, they find the time to honour their rescues with the truth….
