Below you can read 2 of the uncounted calls for help we are receiving continuously.
Seeing these pictures breaks our heart but we have reached the point that
we cannot afford these rescues in large numbers anymore. We need help,
financial help to say it clearly. We can only take in dogs in large numbers and especially dogs that
will cause huge follow-up costs for veterinary treatment, when our financial
resources allow us to do so. This makes
us feel sad and helpless but we have a responsibility towards all the animals
we already have in our care and that we will be able to provide food and
medical care for them. What already is quite a challenge most of the time
So if you want us keeping up our work also when it comes to rescues like
these ones with many dogs, please help us with one of the following options.
Without you we cannot do it and believe us, to be forced to say NO because our
common sense says so is simply horrible when all our heart shouts YES, help
them.

Re: SOS Noah’s Syndrome
I am writing you this way since I
cannot find contact details on your webpage, to tell you that we have over 200
furry friends in our care but have found this case of Noah’s syndrome where we
have found almost 60 dogs, of which we have been able to place about 20 in
foster homes, but we still have plenty left, around 30. They don’t have beds,
sleep on the floor and it is already cold at night. The house they are in is going to be torn
down in December and although we have been trying to get as many dogs out since
august when we found out about it, we hardly find any more foster homes or
adoptions, we don’t have our own shelter and are at the end of our strength, with
some very high debts to the vet. We are
writing you because you have a good reputation and we know that these dogs will
be in good hands with you, in case you could take up some of them.
There are various sizes and ages, from 8 months till years, most of them
small and some of them medium size, Labrador size at the most. Some are very
sociable and others are in panic so it is hard to find families who will foster
or adopt dogs that are frighterened. Most of them are neutered, especially the
bigger ones. We have been spreading the
news since august on social media, on flyers posted in public places,
organizing events, raffles, concenrts, parties and anything we could think of
but we see December closing in, we need to get them out of there and we don’t know
where to put them. This is a desperate situation and we have been told that you
also help other refuges in need. If you could take up some of them, we would be
very grateful, because we are already very desperate and don’t know what to do anymore with the foster homes filled and the
dogs homes too. We cannot cope with this situation. Thank you for reading this
mail, which I have written because I
could not find any contact details. My
name is xxxxxxx, tel. xxxxxx

RE Plea for urgent help
Hello
I am volunteer of an
animal welfare organization (without shelter) in xxxxx, and I am aware you
must be getting thousands of applications for help. Let me explain the case:
A person who has most
likely Noah’s syndrome, who is a squatter, has been picking up stray dogs plus
people have been taking dogs to him. He
is keeping them in terrible conditions, on the outskirts of Estepona, Malaga. I am attaching pictures. Some of them are
locked up in rooms without light or windows, without food or water and they are
living in their excrements, they are not neutered, nor do they receive medical
attention. There are about 29 dogs of
medium sizes, most of them podencos or mixes. Some of my friends want to go to
the police and go there with Seprona but we all know what will happen if they
pick them up and they don’t have a place to go, they will be put in a doghouse
or be put down. It doesn’t seem to be
the first time this person has done this, so he will move and start doing the
same thing when they take the dogs away, so it is very important to report it
and make sure he gets a warrant and can keep an eye on him for when he wants to
do it again. I have been asked to get in touch with you, to see if you please
could take up a few, as much as you can, if you can.
Our contact is Xxxxx
Thanks for your work,
big hug
