Actin don't have a shelter or a shop, they rely on donations and support

From Viv, President of ACTIN: "All of our dogs are in kennels and the costs are around 1500 to 2000€ a month for their kennelling, we also have at least 1 to 2k euros per month to pay in vet fees. We don't have a shelter, or a shop, we rely on donations and support. We do get support and are very thankful but what we really need is to get these dogs homed.
They are taken out of a pound so they could survive, or removed from cruel situations and so need loving homes. We also often help with abandoned dogs locally, when no one else can help. When people see dogs in the pound, they see their predicament and so want to help them out and we understand. But Actin is trying to make changes to some of the awful things.
We have a case against a bad pound in court, we have gone to hell and back to get this case heard - and if it is proved (which is hard in this country) it will be a first and will hopefully make a landmark and help to change things in Spain for animals.
We have other court cases - one of a man who killed his dog after it was saved from falling from a balcony - and many other things that take our time and energy to work on. What holds us back is the need to help dogs directly, to get them adopted and to raise funds for them...please help us to home some of these dogs by sharing them...they are on our website we also have an FB page
Until these dogs are safely in homes they are still not getting the life they deserve...as much support as we are getting we still need more. As a non rescue people are not immediately drawn to us but we do the same and more...thank you."
