Thanks to all our wonderful supporters and volunteers who attended the SCAN Christmas Charity Quiz, last night in Orba.

We were so happy to welcome 40 competitors and 8 teams to contest the quiz, which featured rounds on Christmas General Knowledge, Film and TV and Food, among others, hosted by Lisa and Anne, SCAN volunteers.

This was followed by our traditional Christmas Raffle, with over 30 prizes on offer, including an amazing 6 hampers, 5 of which were very kindly donated by our bar hosts for the evening, El Forn Vell, in Orba.

We raised just shy of 500€, which is all going directly towards the shelter animals!!

Thanks again to our bar hosts, Tracey and Darren (& sheila) who looked after all our supporters and also served up a lovely winter supper. Special thanks also to everyone who donated prizes and to SR Print in Ondara for help with the photocopying!

See you all again soon and Merry Christmas from everyone at SCAN Costa Blanca.

MEET PIPO AND LOTTA!

These tiny treats are nearly ready for their forever homes.

Found in a bin in El Verger, at just approximately 3 days old, they were handed into SCAN. Nicola, one of our volunteers, with tremendous dedication and love, bottle fed and raised them. We are so proud of the work she has done, together with another volunteer Jessica, who also helped out massively.

We are now ready to take enquiries for potential adoptions for these little angels. As you can see from the photographs, they are small cross breeds and when fully grown, our vet estimates they will be around 8 kgs.

Lotta is female and slightly smaller than her brother Pipo. She is 26cm at the shoulder and he is 28cm. She has a bigger white flash on her chest.

They are just having their 3rd vaccinations, which will be followed by their rabies jabs and chips.

If you are interested in finding more about adoption, please contact Barry Caulfield at SCAN Costa Blanca on 626 550 864

ROCKY HAS ARRIVED FROM VALENCIA!!

Rocky arrived at SCAN yesterday, as part of our first intake from Valencia.
The shelter where he was living has been wiped out and the stark reality is that many dogs died. It is a miracle that Rocky is alive.

We are extremely happy to open our doors to foster Rocky and to provide a home for him at SCAN, whilst his options, moving forward, are worked out.

WHAT A DOG!!

What a gorgeous, friendly dog. Today, surrounded by complete strangers, he was very chilled out; charming and affectionate, excellent on the lead and keen to make friends.

We treated him to a little pamper session this morning and this little angel even held his paws up for cleaning. This was an essential bath, as he was smelling of drains and his feet were filthy.

Rocky seems to be in good health, but we will give him access to our vet next week for a quick MOT.

HOW CAN YOU HELP??

Rocky is a big dog and we estimate he will need 7-8 kgs of food a week. Can you help us out? We’ve put together a Rocky Amazon Wish List, with a few items that would be invaluable. If you can have a look and see if you can help – we (and Rocky) would be very grateful. Any HELP is always really appreciated.

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!
Keep an eye out for updates on Rocky, as we get him settled. 🐾🐾🐾🐾

ZEUS HAS STARTED HIS NEW LIFE!!

Once in a while, you meet a truly great dog and all you wish for, in the world, is a lovely home for him. That wish came true for our brilliant boy ZEUS, who came into the shelter earlier this year.

ZEUS had been identified as a dog in need, at the Perrera, when he was rescued, seriously underweight and needing urgent care. He eventually came to SCAN for the next stage of his care, where he was loved by all the volunteers.

Super friendly, highly intelligent, great on walks, with a real zest for life, ZEUS was a real addition to our SCAN Family. A few tears were shed when he left (having got himself into the van!!) but they were tears of joy.

We are so happy to see photographs of him in his new home and videos on the beach. We know he is going to be an incredible addition to his new family in Guernsey and we wish them all the best for the future. Good luck big one 🐾🐾🐾🐾

In the midst of such sadness and horrible news in our region, it was a real tonic to receive heartwarming news about our LUCKY, who was adopted in October in Guernsey. His new owner has shared something really special with us, so we would like to share this with you. (Lucky is now called Ambrose).

*******************
"Love love love him. He’s spoiled rotten but he deserves everything he gets. I would never part with him. Not for £50 million.

Well, we’ve had him two and a half weeks and I can honestly say we adore him. Absolutely love him to bits! He’s the most intelligent dog I’ve ever had. He’s mastered lead walks like a champ, he learnt basic manners in 48 hours. listens to every instruction without question, even learnt to ignore other dogs barking and lunging at him while watching and listening to me.

He’s made Leo’s live so much happier too. They trot around together like they’ve always been together. Leo has had to up his game to keep up with Ambrose’s amazing progress. Ambrose has already mastered basic obedience and he’s totally reliable with it! We had a Halloween party yesterday with 6 additional children round during the day and 5 additional adults for dinner in the evening and he took it in his stride. Looked to me for some instructions and rolled with it. He’s awesome"
********

Thanks to Ambrose and his family, for reminding us, in the midst of a dark time, that what we do is so worthwhile. Good luck little one 🐾🐾🐾🐾

We are visiting a number of shelters in the Valencia area to identify how we can support them at this tragic time.

We are now collecting blankets and towels at the SCAN Shelter in El Verger as part of this effort. If you would like to contribute, please drop off, any day between 09:00 and 11:30. We will ensure they are delivered to those in need.

Thank you.

Wow!! More gifts arrived recently at SCAN, from our Guernsey supporters. We cannot thank them enough for their generosity.

Every dog will enjoy the treats and Ricky (again!!) is enjoying the special toys and blankets. It's cooled down a bit this week on the Costa Blanca, so he is wrapped up.

Best wishes to you!
