Noah's arc goes International through it's re homing initiatives
As many local people will already be aware, with Camposol residence
already owning many dogs’ local re homing opportunities have
become less common in the last few years. It is for this reason
that this web site was created. Since it's creation last October
we are pleased to announce that our re homing numbers have gone
from strength to strength. This has been reported locally to our
volunteers in a monthly newsletter
Our new international re homing initiatives along with links to
other international homing websites and links with a variety of
other Spanish information sites dedicated to Ex pats, Noah’s
arc have never been in a better or more optimistic position operationally
or procedurally. Our fantastic team of volunteers have all worked
really hard on behalf of all the kind local people over the past
few months who have continued to give us their old clothes, books,
furniture as well as money, to ensure that everything possible is
done to help local dogs get permanent homes if not locally then
abroad.
Our international co-operation with home checking means that every
dog homed abroad has the venue and host checked for suitability
ensuring that as far as is possible the dog will always find a happy
ending to their local rescue. In addition we have procured a very
exciting association with one of Europe biggest dedicated greyhound
rescue group who has pledged to help us rescue Galgos that we have
helped in our organisation. many of you are aware that these beautiful
dogs can have an appalling life at the hands of some Spanish hunters.
Our local kennel facility at Corvera does a great job, and again
since their co operation in 2006 have helped us slash the cost of
our kennel care, allowing us to help even more dogs than before.
When these kennels are full (most of the time) our volunteers foster
carers step in together with our kennel manager who currently looks
after many dogs at her own house free of charge to our charity.
So our message is clear “please keep helping us”. Every
penny spent with Noah’s arc either donated or at the shops
is used to help local dogs now

Doggy Hell near Polaris World!
Just 2 km from the luxury of what is to be Polaris World’s
new development in ALHAMA DE MURCIA we are informed about what must
surely be some of the worst cases of dog abuse in the region! Noahs
arc fully support whatever action may be required in order to bring
about a satisfactory conclusion to this situation
A rectangular strip of land, measuring about 25m wide by 250m....
not enough to legally build any permanent structures but large enough
to dump a few animals is being used as a compound for dogs. Built
in March 2005, a fence was erected and the first of the dogs were
confined. There is no power or water supply. The dogs are permanently
confined in the compound while their owner remains living in Alhama.
Outside her occasional visits (lasting around 1 hour) with food
and water the animals have no stimulation, discipline, exercise,
affection or leadership. more information can be found at the web
site cruelty
at polaris.
