We would say Happy Valentine's, happy Friend's Day, but how to celebrate Friend's Day when one of your friends is missing, and all alone out there for already 6 days.

So many dogs are seen and reported, but nothing of our Hunt💔

-------

Diríamos Feliz San Valentín, Feliz Día del Amigos, pero ¿cómo celebrar el Día del Amigo cuando uno de tus amigos está desaparecido y solo por 6 días ya?

Se ven y denuncian muchos perros, pero nada de nuestra Hunt💔

Dear Hunt,
Long days have passed since you disappeared In Fuengirola. Four cold nights spent outside, alone. The fifth one is starting now. You don’t know where you are, how to find food, or which way leads you back home. You must be hungry, frightened, and wondering why no familiar faces appear.

We search for you endlessly, calling your name, hoping for a glimpse of your dark silhouette in the distance. But the streets and fields remain silent, offering no trace of you. By now, you could be anywhere, lost in a world that feels so big and unfamiliar. Maybe someone has taken you, or even worse... We don’t know.

If anyone has seen him or has other info that could help us find Hunt, please contact our search team via +34 661 10 47 39

WE NEED SIGHTINGS: Hunt has not been seen by anyone after escaping in the middle of the centre of Fuengirola...
It's been over 48 hours and there has been no sign of Hunt at all. Hunt is a shelter dog who escaped during an adoption trial so he does not know the area and we are very worried for him. Since there are no sightings at all, our team doesn't know where to look, he could be anywhere by now. Please, someone must have seen or heard something, right? 🥺

We ask everyone to please spread the word and keep our eyes open, so we have a chance of getting him back safe and well. He could be anywhere in or around Fuengirola or surrounding areas... Thank you!

¡NECESITAMOS AVISTAMIENTOS! Hunt no ha sido visto por nadie desde que escapó en pleno centro de Fuengirola...
Han pasado más de 48 horas y no hay ninguna señal de él. Hunt es un perro del refugio que se escapó durante una prueba de adopción, por lo que no conoce la zona y estamos muy preocupados. Dado que no hay avistamientos, nuestro equipo no sabe dónde buscar, podría estar en cualquier parte. Por favor, alguien debe haberlo visto o escuchado algo, ¿verdad? 🥺

Pedimos a todos que compartan esta información y estén atentos, para que tengamos la oportunidad de traerlo de vuelta sano y salvo. Podría estar en cualquier lugar dentro o alrededor de Fuengirola, o Mijas, Benalmadena... ¡Gracias!

Parvovirus is every shelter’s nightmare. Life in a shelter is already unbearably hard, with daily incoming animals, hurt and sick abandoned dogs, and then when a shelter is hit with merciless Parvovirus, life becomes hell on Earth, watching all the animals you love, struggle for their lives.

Parvovirus is a contagious virus that mainly affects dogs and cats, and it spreads from dog to dog by contact with infected dogs f***s. In a shelter’s restricted space, where dogs are forced to live all together in very small spaces, if the virus manages to come in, with a new incoming dog, then it’s very hard to get and keep it under control.

Most of vaccined, healthy adult dogs are resistant to parvovirus, but the groups of dogs most in danger are puppies, unvaccinated adults, elderly and sick dogs.

In November 2024, when Parvovirus was identified in the shelter, we had a big influx of puppies and new unvaccinated dogs at the time. Even though the spreading of the virus was contained to 2 enclosed areas, most dogs, including a lot of puppies, were infected with the virus, as the virus broke off in an area of new incoming arrivals - meaning hurt abandoned dogs, neglected dogs without any vaccinations, dumped puppies.

Parvovirus hides in a dog for days up to weeks and then suddenly symptoms break out, in some cases so violently that very vulnerable dogs can go into critical states in hours, in a day. They start vomiting, and having severe diarrhea, which causes terrible de-hydrating, that again causes organs to start failing. The patients become lethargic, they no longer eat, and the get fever. All of this leads to very fast weight loss and a weak immune system. It’s a fast and violent downward spiral.

Our shelter veterinary team set up an emergency clinic, which filled up with almost 20 dogs in a matter of 2 days. However, a shelter has very very limited medical equipment for such situations, and when the shelters vet team together with wonderful medical volunteers saw any of the patients getting terribly worse, then we were at a crossroad - let the dog stay in the shelter and very probably accept the animals death, or transport the dog to an animal hospital with 24/7 attendance and proper medical equipment. Parvovirus mostly needs veterinary hospitalization for any chance of survival.

The Government of Spain does not provide the shelter with any medical assistance, let alone offer financing for the purchase of much needed medical equipment, or a Veterinary Centre where the homeless animals of Spain can get veterinary assistance. Neither do they help with covering any medical invoices, so us as a shelter end up with massive debts, that we’re unable to pay: almost 15.000€ is the still unpaid cost of Parvo Crisis 24/25.

We cannot let precious puppies die in agony and pain, of course we must send them to hospital, but now we need everyone’s help, to cover their medical costs, the SOS Malaga clinic will also be able to receive emergencies from Triple A Marbella in the future....

Parvovirus is every shelter’s nightmare. Life in a shelter is already unbearably… Daniella Moreno needs your support for Save homeless puppies from Parvovirus

Poor Frenchie Iron, again homeless..... We are looking for an end-station for this little boy, without other animals, where he can cheerfully bring love to his humans for the rest of his remaining days.

If you are interested in offering a foster or a forever home for this little snoring cutie pie, please contact us at [email protected] ❤️‍🩹

Lusi is a loving 9-year-old Amstaff Mix. Born approximately in March 2015, she has been in the shelter since 09/08/2023 after her owners gave her up due to a divorce. Despite this difficult past, Lusi is a healthy, vibrant girl who has so much love to give.

Lusi loves children and showers them with kisses. She’s lived with small children before and is a favorite among families who visit the shelter. She walks smoothly on the leash, making her a joy to take on walks. Our senior volunteers especially adore Lusi because she is gentle and kind, never pulling on the leash.

When it comes to other dogs, Lusi is selective but adores certain male dogs. Once she finds a male dog friend, she is affectionate and nurturing. She has even helped a scared and shy border collie come out of his shell, showing her empathetic nature. Although she gets along well with selected male dogs, she prefers not to be bothered by loose-running dogs on the street.
Lusi has not been tested with cats yet, but she is eager to meet new people and is very good with being touched by anyone. Volunteers who have taken Lusi out for the day say she is super sweet, loves to cuddle, and gives kisses. She is friendly with everyone she meets, including children.
At restaurants, Lusi is well-behaved, although curious about what’s on the table. A simple command to get down and she will lay down and relax. She listens well, sits, and gives her paw on command. When she sees other dogs on the street, she can be corrected on the leash easily, but she prefers to be left alone by off-leash dogs.
Lusi loves the beach and is a ray of sunshine in our shelter, bringing joy to everyone she meets! At 9 years old, she is still full of life, walking well without any signs of arthritis or other health issues common in dogs her age. Lusi is a healthy, happy dog looking for her forever home.

Lusi’s ideal family would be one that can provide her with love, care, and attention. She deserves to experience the comfort and happiness of a real home. Come meet Lusi at Triple A and let her bring sunshine into your life!💚
