In this section we kindly invite you to see how you can help us with various types of Donations.
Food Donations
As you can imagine there is a great need for food in the Shelter with 100+ dogs. If you can please help, please do.
We feed them on dry food, better for their teeth and ensuring they have a balanced diet which provides all necessary nutrition and important intestinal flora.
Donations of the Brand Orlando, from Lidl are welcomed, a 10kgs sack is around €7, a good product and price. Lidl does not deliver so if you are not close to the Shelter, you can shop online.
Online Animal Shop (Tienda Animales Online)
A little more expensive than Lidl but they deliver free of charge.
Also Zoo Plus

Of course you may buy where you wish, the most important thing is the dogs don’t go hungry. If you live in Totana you may prefer to buy in Mascotas, simply tell them the name of the Shelter: Refugio del Viento and pay and we collect.
