  Ajuda

  Most of our rescues have been through very hard times in their lifes. They have been abused, suffered unimaginable pain, solitude or illness. They need care, attention, love, acceptance and patience. We need help to socialize and train them. Especially our puppies and juniors are happy to have someone who show them how to walk on a leash, play and build up a connection.
  Beside the social interactions we need a strong and helping hand to walk the adult dogs, pick up poo, carrying the dogs for example when they're paralyzed and bathing them, to clean the place and for mass feedings and rescues outside on the streets.
  
  !! It's important that you're not affraid to get in touch with poo, vomit, pee and blood !!

  Acomodação

  Our Helper House is 3 min away from the Refuge Property in the midst of hemp plantations and surrounded by beautiful mountains. It's a small and simple mountain house with a kitchen, a small toilet with a cold bucket shower and two rooms for the Volunteers with bunk beds. In front of the house is a little terrace. We’re next to a small, local shop. Please note that we have NO EUROPEAN STANDARD! We’re living as the local people, very minimalistic. Don’t visit us if you’re used to a certain standard.
  
  •You will have a bed in a shared room - 10qm - 2 to 6 people
  •You're welcome to set up a tent in the summer.
  •We live very minimalist, we cook with butan and we use and drink water from a natural water source next to our house.
  •we have no hot shower, you must cook your hot water first.
  •we have no general heating in winter, on very cold days we’re using a gas heater.
  •in winter (december - march) it gets cold and rainy in the mountains.

  If you're craving for meat, sweets or anything special you can buy it from a shop nearby.
