  Description

  We are a dog shelter, in the mountains above the sea-side town of Almunecar. We need help with the care-taking of the dogs, from the poop-scooping to the puppy-cuddling and walking and appreciate dog-loving people that can handle living off-te -beaten track to help abandoned dogs have a little better life while they are at our shelter.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We have volunteers of different countries, coming together for their love of dogs and animals in general. Being in Andalucia, you can go to the towns and experience the Spanish living, as its an area which is not overly touristic.

  Aide

  We need help with the cleaning of the kennels in the morning and in the late afternoon. This is normally a 4-hours work. Most volunteers like to take the dogs for walks, or taking their pictures... the actual time spent with the dogs is flexible.
  As we are expanding the outside patios, we also need help with construction of low brick walls and putting in fencing.
  This could be a ob independent from the kennel-cleaning.
  
  In summertime is quite hot in the area, so the work is mostly early morning and later in the afternoon.
