  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Learning and understanding Dogs, maintenance, health care
  We welcome all volunteers and any ideas they have to improve the conditions at the shelter.
  Our Shelter is forever improving but very basic and rugged, our facilities aren't the best but our dogs are well cared for and loved.
  You will be helping with the day to day cleaning of the shelter with lots of kisses and cuddles from the dogs, if you are wary of dogs this is not the place for you.
  Working amongst different nationalities enabling to broaden or learn, English, Turkish or German.
  You will also gain an insight into Turkish culture and there mentality.
  
  
  Koycegiz is an authentic town resting peacefully on the banks of the Koycegiz Lake from where it takes its name. Koycegiz has retained much of its quiet charm and is rich in citrus fruits and olive groves. There are many delicious fish restaurants and tea houses to be found in Koycegiz, along with a regular market selling local handicrafts, locally grown produce.
  Sailing boats and traditional wooden gullets cruise the Lake, which is home to many interesting species of sea and wildlife, and is set against a backdrop of delightful pine-clad mountains. A handful of small bars provide the local nightlife.

  Ayuda

  No skills are necessary but obviously the love of dogs is required as we have a lot, over 400 can be very overwhelming so you need to be comfortable working around dogs, none of our dogs are aggressive towards himans they just want love and attention.
  Other tasks : feeding the animals and a lot of cleaning to ensure the dogs have a clean living area.
  
  The work on some days can be hard and sometimes overwhelming, please remember we do this on a daily basis but we do it as our dogs in our shelter need us.
  
  It's better if you are used to be with animals but it's not an obligation, our animals are very nice and not dangerous at all !
  We except people who are ready to involve themselves physically and especially psychologically. We need people who really love animals and are ready to dedicate themselves to them for a while.
  You are actually living on site amongst 150 of the dogs and sharing your living space with the dogs and my colleague who currently lives on site.
  Our conditions are not ideal, our shelter is basic and in need of a lot of work which we can't do without volunteers helping with the daily tasks as well as helping improve our conditions.
  As we are on land with trees and bushes and below water level it gets very dusty in the summer and muddy and wet in the winter.
  Our shelter is very very basic as are the living conditions
  Do not come to our shelter if you have cleanliness issues.
