🐈 spend the evening in one of the cat places - Mendes felt like posing
🍋 three cats and a lemon from the yard
🥭🍌 first breakfast, fruit, honestly because I didn't fully know yet how this kitchen works, we'll see tonight 🤩🍝
🐶 Our house dog Kenia, a sweet old lady who likes her space - oh, and food so everything has to be locked in the kitchen 🔒Meer informatie

🧽 after first morning walks we clean the kennels
🤗 cuddles during cleaning of course
☕ landed in a South-American coffee bar during shifts, where we had cake with coffee on top (look closely) - delicious! and only €1,80
🍦grabbed some more sugar before the extra shift
🐕‍🦺 walked Disney on my second shift - aka running a few meters and then stopping for a few minutes to enoy the view (her call)
🐕 after putting the dogs from the parks in their kennel, and cleaning the parks, we socialized with young Mr Tovo, he's very playful!
🍝 Made my first dinner, or should I say dinner for tomorrow too? and, of course it's pasta
🌇 Went into Loulé in the evening where we roamed the streets during sunset,
🪽 and saw storks!!
🍹There once was a German, an American, two Dutch girls and a Belgian at a café, but I won't tell you how the joke ends 🤭Meer informatie

🐕‍🦺 walked our 14 yr old (!) housedog, Kenia. She will only walk with treats
🐶 Met our look-a-like Pickels (dog we rescued from Spain), Ravena. She's looks just like him and also always want to sit on my lap. I'm sorry Ravena, but I got to clean your bed
🍫 Don't need to explain, (chocolate) cakes are the BEST on vacation!!
🐕‍🦺 With enough sugar, I had a run with sweet Merida. She doesn't like walking too much and rather runs 🏃‍♀️
🥎 Threw a ball while cleaning the big park
🗣️ Time to socialize! My first dog: Jude, who lives with the sweet, playful Napoleon (on the first picture)
🍬 Was able to give her a treat out of my hand! And by the end pet her real carefully, she's lovely and defenitely needs a lot more love 💕
🐕 Second socializing of the day: 12 year old Smoke & she decided to give me some love too 👅Meer informatie

🐕‍🦺 Walked Merida (without cone!) and Chaplin
🐕‍🦺 Walked silly, energitic Tovo
🌴 Went to the park
☕🍰 Had THE nicest vegan chocolate cake, oh my god
🌺 Came back for the second shift and admired the pretty flowers that are all over the shelter
🐕‍🦺 Walked silly Tovo again on my second shift
🐶 Got Chaplin to walk, but didn't want to walk any further so we waited on his housemate Puca. He came sitting on my leg, and chilled against my back.
😺 Cleaning the cattery
🩹 Don't worry, not from a dog, just an encounter between clumsy me and a sharp edge 💁🏽‍♀️
🗨️ Socialize time! I went with Zagnis first, she's alone (for) now because her housemate Tomé got adopted. Of course I brought some treats!
🐾 Then went to sit with Azul and Yeshua, they are both so sweet!
🍦 We went back in town for ice cream - straciatella and cookies hmmm
🧁 And brought some pastries back home too, to have a snack for my day off with Loki tomorrow
👯‍♀️ Quickly took a picture together during the last seconds of golden hour - ARA friendships 💛
🌄 Sun was down, end of the day, went home to have some rice for dinner!Meer informatie

Dag 6
First adoption event 🎪
1 juni 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
📷

🐕‍🦺🧽 In the morning I walked Kenia (yes, she was already asking for a treat, she got her breakfast right after) and said hi to the bébés, Carlitos and Caleb, and sweet Loki while cleaning their cages.
🐇 They asked pictures of the little (and big) bunnies who are for adoption
😻 And while I was there I said hi to the little kittens (they're for adoption too 🤭)
🎪 After that I went to my first adoption event, apparently it was Children's Day in Portugal and they play and party the whole day. We brought the bébés, old Dandi (white), best friends Spike (brown) and Oscar (black) and Albano (little brown). For this I got my volunteering T-shirt so it's official now! We raised some money and I helped a boy get over his fears of big dogs. Oh and I also ate a shrimp kroketta 🤣🤭Meer informatie
