    Description

    I live in a tiny village about 35k inland of Alicante. Three years ago i retired from dog rescue after 17 years hard slog. But i enjoyed every minute and rescued. rehabilitated, and rehomed more than 7,000 dogs and puppies. I now live alone in a big 4 bedroom villa with a pool and still have 5 rescue dogs here with me. I am hoping to start doing doggy hotel work shortly

    As i live inland, its very much more old Spanish than a tourist resort. The locals are extremely friendly and we have everything you need in the village including bars and restaurants
