Help needed: Assistance wanted at the local canine refuge

The local dog shelter, Protectora Animales Perros del Sol (PAPS), based at Casa del Sol in San Javier, Costa Calida, is currently in need of additional volunteers. The charity organisation, which rescues, cares for, and rehomes abandoned dogs, is under pressure due to sudden staff illness and the current team of dedicated volunteers needing extra help.

Any support from volunteers would make a big difference to the dogs' care and wellbeing. Help is needed with daily care tasks such as feeding, cleaning, grooming, and walking the dogs. A short visit to the shelter can make a significant difference in the lives of the dogs waiting for their forever homes.

The shelter's primary goal is to provide comfort, routine, and affection to the dogs while they wait for new homes. Volunteering at PAPS can bring rewards for volunteers, including stress relief, fresh air, a sense of achievement, and the opportunity to meet new people, both human and four-legged.

Potential volunteers can contact the shelter through their Facebook Messenger or by email at [email protected]. The shelter's Facebook page is a means of communication for potential volunteers to reach out and express their interest in helping. The official contact channels are the best way to inquire about the specific volunteer application process and training.

The shelter welcomes volunteers regardless of whether they are dog lovers or simply want to give back to the community. Extra help is desperately needed to keep the shelter running smoothly and to continue its mission of not only rescuing and caring for abandoned dogs but also helping them find new, loving homes.

By volunteering, you can make a real difference in the lives of these dogs and contribute to the ongoing work of this important charity organisation. Please consider reaching out to PAPS today and offering your support. Together, we can ensure that these dogs receive the care and love they deserve while they wait for their forever homes.
