Evil triumphs simply because good people do nothing!
Quote from Edmund Burke
Each individual can contribute to changing the situation for the dogs in a positive direction!
What is our mission & our vision
The situation on Tenerife regarding abandoned dogs is still very bad. Police authorities are only of very limited help! It is up to all of us to help these adorable four-legged friends. Although in Spain, by law, dogs are no longer considered a “thing” but a full member of a family, dogs are still treated in a despicable way!
Puppies are dumped in rubbish bins and illegal dog fights with XL Pit Bulls are not uncommon. Vets, police officers and politicians are still involved.
Of course, the public media only report on this to a limited extent because it is extremely damaging to tourism when profits are made at the expense of helpless dogs. For this reason, we work closely with animal shelters, animal welfare organizations and vets to offer an effective alternative to the disinterested authorities.
The first step is a beginning!
We want to use a rescue & recovery vehicle to rescue dogs that are abandoned in barrancos, hard-to-reach areas, ruined buildings or at the side of the road. As the police authorities only provide very limited help in such cases, an independent organization is urgently needed.
We also want to make ourselves available as a point of contact when dead dogs are discovered. Here too, support from the authorities is a disappointment in 9 out of 10 cases.
We are currently in the process of founding a non-profit association. As soon as this hurdle has been overcome, we will launch various fundraising campaigns – one of which will be the rescue & recovery vehicle.
We want to help dogs...
- that have been abandoned in barrancos
- left to die in the ruins of buildings
- that have been left on the side of the road
- who come from illegal dog fights and hope for help
- locked up in cages on abandoned ruins
- and countless other situations...
