On a passé 1mois et demi ici, et cette expérience a été enrichissante ! Une journée type commence par un réveil avec des chiens qui ont faim, on les sort de l'hôtel, on nettoie et c'est l'heure du petit déjeuner. Après dans la journée le temps passé au play-time est répartie entre les volontaires, le but est de sortir les chiens et qu'il s'amuse.… read more

I really enjoyed my time at the place! I was there for 4 weeks and loved being around all the dogs.
The work is simple and not strenuous at all, although there are set tasks that need to be done each day, so depending on how many dogs there are depends how long those tasks take. Your morning will consist of cleaning, feeding, watering, picking up… read more

So I worked here for just under one month and overall it was a good experience.
There were many dogs to care for and always something to keep you busy from feeding to playing and cleaning up after them .

The accommodation was really basic and the shower and toilet outside shared with spiders, but you get used to that pretty quickly .

I’ll start with what this Workaway is all about – the dogs. They are wonderful! I stayed for 3 weeks in November/early Dec and at that time there was 22 rescued dogs living on the property (with 12 being the ‘house dogs’), and then any number of dog guests for the hotel. The guests stayed different lengths of time, some for a day or two, some for… read more

The project is only just beginning,having only been open for business for 2 months. It was really interesting to be part of something like this and to actually contribute new ideas and methods to help things run more smoothly and professionally. The guys have big plans for the future by introducing an on site veterinary service,grooming parlour and also a brilliant plan to use the dogs in child and adult therapy. When,not if, when they realise these dreams I believe it will be a unique centre for dog care unlike anything else in the whole of Mexico.
The best part though obviously is the street dogs and customers dogs. All have great individual characters and personalities which you have to get to know and fall in love with. This is a place to come if you REALLY love dogs and want to make a difference. This is not a normal 5 hour day,you do end up working more hours,but that's caring for dogs,they need looking after 24/7 no ifs,not buts. Fortunately the guys who run the place are very keen for you to take your mandatory 2 days off a week,they realise you need some proper down time. In your downtime you can visit Guadalajara centro by 7 peso bus that passes by the kennels,very convenient. Or you can go for a hike in the Primavera forest or wander around the cute little pueblo of Tlajomulco de Zuniga and try some great street food.
Accomodation is a large room with an individual bed shared with other workawayers. All food is provided,but you cook for yourself,and on Sundays it's a nice thing to go down to the local market and do your fresh shopping for the week.
Bring a helpful,considerate and hard working mindset with you and give the high level of care to these beautiful bunch of dogs that they deserve as all dogs do.
A massive thank you to Nestor,Orlando,Juan and Hugo. You guys have made my experience here one that I will never forget and I hope to return one day and see the progress that I know you will have made.
And last but not least I need to send massive hugs to all my dogs in "The Pack", Huesos,Vago,Xula,Yoda,Bongo,Jack Jack,Frijolito,Cassie,Mina and the 8 pit bull puppies including my special boy "Chicharito". I hope they all find loving new homes in the coming months.
