Détails du programme
Our programme aims to give a second chance to dogs that have been hurt, injured, abused or abandoned. All of our dogs have been rescued because they were in need of sanctuary and not just because they were living on the streets. Street dogs can live happy healthy lives, but our mission at WOOFF is to save, rehabilitate and rehome when possible dogs that are at risk of dying or being put down.
Our project varies day to day but the day will always start between 8am and 9am. Some days you will be needed 9-5 and other days you may be needed 9am-1pm and then again in the evening 7-9pm maybe.
Any questions please feel free to message us on here, instagram or direct on whatsapp:

Règles
- Treat the property with respect as if it was your own home
- Care and love the dogs, they are my pets who have had a troubled background and now are regaining trust in humans
- Do not come thinking it will be a holiday or somewhere to base to explore the island. If you're not volunteering it's not a space to free load.
- Be environmentally conscious of water use and electricity. I love having guests but it can be costly if people overuse utilities.
- I typically don't accept solo female travellers, please reach out before applying as if I have other volunteers at the time you apply, you will be still be welcome.
