We are a modest Animal Sanctuary in the south of Brazil, currently home to 2 bulls, lots of fish, and 14 (mostly senior) dogs. Volunteers are expected to help tending to all the animals, which includes cleaning the areas where the bulls stay/live, feeding the bulls, the dogs, and the fish, spending quality time with the bulls, but specially with the senior dogs, help cleaning the areas where the dogs stay mostly, and help with gardening.

Programa detallado

Welcome to Brum's Animal Sanctuary! Our residents came from conditions of abuse and neglect and were rescued by me in the course of many years. I take care of the Sanctuary on my own and have only 1 part-time employee on week days and a cleaning lady once a week.
Each resident, being them a dog, a bull, a wild bird or bee that flies by, has a unique personality and specific needs that must be noted and respected. The Sanctuary has a pond and a small agroforest where I grow bananas, veggies, papaya, etc. Volunteers should participate in gardening activities and might learn or teach me something in the process. Although very beautiful and carefully tented to, the Sanctuary is next to the city and not an idyllic place in the mountains or in the middle of a forest as I'd love it to be.
But I'm more than happy to go with you on small tours to explore better surroundings.
