Dog Alert!!

We are coming up to one of the most dangerous times of the year for our dog's here in Spain – the arrival of the new crop of processional pine caterpillars. To see how dangerous these little beasts can be, read our resident Vet's page here: Wayne's World

Bar staff donate to Christmas benefit

The less than festive rain in Spain did not bring much festive cheer to SOS Animal Refuge as volunteers struggle in the mud – made worse by the construction work on the old Coin road.

But regulars at JJ´s Bar in Arroyo de la Miel piled in for an end-of-year fun extravaganza, raising a welcome Euro 400. And bar staff showed real Christmas spirit &ndash donating their wages for the night. Refuge Director Tony Byford said: "It was a lovely gesture by the bar staff and thanks to everyone who helped raise this fantastic sum."

New Special Cases Page

On this new page we feature dogs that are suitable for re-homing, but for different reasons, have not yet found a home. For example, take our older residents – some have been with us since puppyhood and as they have got older, have been overlooked. But just like all the others, they want nothing more than a loving new home. For some people, giving a home to a dog in his or her later years could be the perfect answer – so if you could make an older dog happy, please contact us.

Here is one example. Binfo is 5 or 6 and has been at SOS for 3 years. He was an abandoned pet. He loves people and would make a fine pet for someone. He is a strong dog who loves walking and has a mad 10 minutes at the start of walks when he is ecstatic to be out and about.
