Help needed now
I have 15 acres of land stables and kennels for dogs a small animal rescue. I share my home with dogs! So beware you have to love animals. I rescue lots of animals. As a consequence of my lifestyle I am always in need of help around the farm caring for the animals. I have lots of dogs that need walking and horses that need looking after. I would like to attract people of a like mind who love animals and the outdoor life. I’m located 9 miles from the nearest town Kenmare and 2 miles from the nearest village, this is a rural location. There is plenty of hill walking, sea and river angling, golf etc. I’m a easy going person, I enjoy company and cooking and would welcome you to share my wonderful location and my lovely animals in return for your energy in helping me. Any one who comes to stay with us has to be a animal lover as the animals are part of our family. I have 2 spare bedrooms and a mobile home for accommodation. You will get breakfast lunch and a evening meal. I have 2 mountain bikes for use and internet access Volunteers need to bring an adequate supply of warm and waterproof clothing plus wellington boots.
