Hi everyone! I'm looking for a commited volunteer to help us people from the animal shelter of Orihuela (southern Spain). It consists mainly in posting dogs to the right places with their description. But also recieve the animals with the families and be in touch with them. We already do the same thing in Germany, and we are trying to in the UK now.
There are so many animals entering the shelter every week that we can't keep up and have a stable, controlled number of animals. Currently there are about 200 dogs, 60 cats , 10 pigs and a pony who look for a permanent home.
So now we are searching this kind of a volunteer, but also a popular web page where to advertise out animals for free. Any ideas? PM me if you're interested.

OMG! I'm from Orihuela, and my family and many friends live there.

I'll share this with my friends and family.

Monics, I guess the link must be wrong. It takes me to a picture of a dog.

Where is all the information about this volunteer position?

It is a picture of a dog. Well we are constantly looking for ways to get animals out of the shelter, it's just that in summer I have more time and asked the person responsible for Germany if I could do something similar, and she agreed. We are looking for a person in the UK though :)
Anyway, the shelter is located in San Bartolomé, and we also need other volunteers to walk dogs, clean cages, prepare animals for travelling, participate in our events (market stalls once a month, our anniversary celebrations, selling lottery, etc.). There are people from Orihuela so you could even share a car.
This is the official page: http://protectoraoriolana.org/
and our facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Asoka-Orihuela-P%C3%A1gina/356299064452939?fref=ts

Message me if you have any questions :)
PS: there are other vegans in the shelter! :P

OK, I'll share it with the people I know near Orihuela and S. Bartolomé, if you're looking for volunteers.

The only point I don't have clear is why are you looking for a volunteer in the UK, if the center is in Spain.

Because most of our animals get adopted in Germany or the Netherlands, and I think the UK is also a good destination. For example, last week 28 dogs were sent to Germany because they had arranged permanent homes there. Few people want animals in Spain.
Thanks for the interest :)

OK, I understand.

How sad is that.
