    Om programmet

    This project arose after the floods in Bolivia in 2018, thanks to the initiative of people who saw many dogs being abandoned by their owners due to the disaster. Nowadays, also run away dogs or dogs that are rescued from the streets take residence at this shelter. Currently, they run a shelter for around 140 dogs, which makes it the largest dogshelter in the country. Sometimes a dog is getting adopted by a family where he/she can live happily ever after! We are always happy to see when a dog is adopted. 

    A volunteer can help out by preparing the food and feeding the dogs, cleaning the areas, buying new toys, play with the dogs and also, when you are handy, help build new shelters for the dogs to sleep in!

    Your direct co-workers are volunteers and social veterinarian workers.

    Are you a dog lover, that likes physical work? Then please don’t hesitate to contact us!

    Hosting 140 dogs, naturally some things have to be repaired or new fennels have to be build. A handy volunteer can add major value by fixing things! 

    Depending on the desired work hours, volunteers are also involved in activities to raise funds. All ideas are more than welcome. 
    Volunteers can either to choose to work a whole or a halve day.

Are you looking for something more relaxing or
    cultural? You can submerge yourself in one of the country's many hot springs, take a break in the turquoise lagoon, admire the constructions of the Pre-Colombian Tiwanaku Empire or the Salar de Uyuni, the largest salt flat in the world.
