Welcome to Sal Animal Rescue, Cabo Verde Last updated 21.06.2011
Sal Animal Rescue is closed *but*
Yes Sal Animal Rescue is closed. It was not possible to run the Animal rescue center without some financial help. Also the work of trying to help the many dogs turned out to be gut wrenching and emotionally out of my capability. Jackie who had run the center managed to get new homes for the remaining dogs at the centre.
But a new organisation is trying to help the animals. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Sal-Animal-Rescue/114091813791

Lady rest in peace
This is a picture of Lady. She was a very good dog, and my friend. I wanted to take her to Norway. All the bloodtests where done. But she became sick a couple of weeks before I left. And sadly died on Sal two days after I got home. May she rest in peace.
Formerly known as Pixie, "Pepsi"
She made it well, and is in the care of a nice girl on Sal. The dog behind her in the picture is Rufus, a great little dog
who was recovering well when I left the clinic. Jackie had to take over again, after I ran out of money.
The clinic still needs help. Contact for how to do something.

The puppy again, also called Pixie or "piglet"
She is doing allright. But she had a fight with the big "Flop" and it was really bad. But once again she recovered and is doing ok.
Sorry for the lack of updates.
Ok I have now been on Sal for 20 days or more? Time is flying. And one would not think it would be easier to update a page? But reallity is that is has been busy. And a bit hard to get used to all the new things. A big thank you to Jackie who is helping out alot. The amount of work she has put in by herself is simply amazing.
The latest news is that a little puppy was brought in yesterday (17.05.10) and it was not looking to good. But hopefully she will make it. It has been given wormer and a bath. Also a check-up from the vet Fatima, and a little injection for mites and other skin diseases. So fingers crossed.

A new arrival
This puppy was brought in from the beach and as you can see it did not look so good. However after Jackie took it in it is doing much better. Pictures will be posted later.

The puppy has had a bath and is now resting for a while.
