The reason is a landlord who made it difficult, or rather impossible, to stay where they were. For Monique as well as the puppies. Monique found a new home, and a new space was also found for the puppies.

As you can imagine, the move took and still takes a lot of planning, manual labour and especially money! We were shocked by the price of everything that we needed to reconstruct the kennels at the new location. We are using all that we can of the original shelter, but still needed much more of things like cement, gravel, stone blocks, and to replace stuff that was broken or too worn to reuse.

We are very lucky to get lots of helping hands but also need much financial support to make it all work. The Friends of Canil de Portimão Charity Lunch of November 4 will surely bring in some much-needed funds.

Nevertheless, we will need the goodwill of dog lovers to help us cover more of the costs of the new shelter, which we have named Puppyland, and which is becoming a true haven for all the puppies that never seem to stop coming our way.
