ALMA Hondón

"Hi, I'm Leo, and I'm really trying my best... but I'm scared."

I'm only 2 years old, but the shelter is a very loud and scary place for a big guy like me.

 

My tummy hurts because I'm so stressed, and even though the nice vets gave me special food, what I really need is you.

I dream about a garden where I can mooch around in the sun and a quiet house where I can be your one-and-only best friend. I promise I have so much love to give if you just give me a chance to show you.

Can you save Leo?

  • Foster: Cost-free to you, life-changing for him.

  • Adopt: Make him a permanent part of your family.

  • Requirement: Must be the only dog in the home.

 

Don't let him spend another night in a place that's making him sick

PLEASE SHARE

Hola, soy Leo y me estoy esforzando mucho... pero tengo miedo."

Solo tengo 2 años, pero el refugio es un lugar muy ruidoso y aterrador para un chico grandullón como yo.

 

Me duele mi tripita porque estoy muy estresado y, aunque los veterinarios son muy buenos y me dan comida especial, lo que realmente necesito es a ti.

Sueño con un jardín donde pueda deambular bajo el sol y una casa tranquila donde pueda ser tu único y mejor amigo.

 

Prometo que tengo muchísimo amor para dar, si tan solo me das la oportunidad de demostrártelo.

¿Puedes salvar a Leo?

  • Acogida: Sin coste para ti, pero le cambiarás la vida a él. (Nosotros cubrimos todos los gastos).

  • Adopción: Haz que sea un miembro permanente de tu familia.

  • Requisito: Debe ser el único perro en la casa (¡quiere todo el amor para él solo!).

 

No dejes que pase una noche más en un lugar que le está enfermando.

 

Por favor, ¡comparte!

COMPLETED 26TH MARCH 2026 - ITS NOT TOO LATE TO SPONSOR 

​Margo is a beautiful, blind 2 year old girl, nicknamed 'Mad Margo' as she has an abundance of energy and despite being blind is always getting into mischief!

 

Unfortunately she has had to have surgery this week to repair a displaced patella and torn cruciate ligament. She has a long road in front of her to get back to her crazy self.

Unfortunately Margos vet bills to date is 1200 euros which will be funded by Barkinside.

 

 

​​

​​​​​

I am doing a sponsored walk of 100 miles in the first 3 weeks of March, (between 1st and 21st of March), with the aim of raising the amount needed to cover Margos vet bills.

 

The walks will be varied including steep mountain hikes. I will record each walk/hike using Strava and publish the strava stats after each one.

Help me to help Jaquie and Barkinside continue their vital work in helping Margo and many other dogs who find their way to Barkinside.

If you would like to sponsor me you can give directly to me, I will be in the UK end of Feb and again in April if my UK friends want to give me sponsorship.

You can donate directly to Barkinside, please add reference '100 Miles in March' so I can keep tally of how much raised.

Please feel free to share with friends to reach as many people as possible.

Let's do this for Margo!

Thank you all so much

Barkinside, run by our dear friend Jaquie, does not receive any funding and relys solely on fundraising. Barkinside focus on rescuing abandoned, elderly and disabled dogs in our area. Many of these dogs come in traumatised, sickly, disabled and need specialised, loving care back to health, those that cannot be rehomed will live out their lives with Jaqui in the Sanctuary.

​​Barkinside Babies, Residents and those looking for homes

 

If you would like to Sponsor any of our rescues you would help us greatly.

 

Our spending on food, vets bills, special dietary requirements, medical care is a huge monthly expense and we are in a constant struggle with it daily.

We always have over 30 dogs in our care and others coming in every week.

 

We are lucky to have a good homing rate. The more we home the more we can save.

​​All photos and information are current and are updated as often as we are able [as of today's date 12th June 2025]

 

The dogs below are either resident at Barkinside Sanctuary, with fantastic fosters or desperately looking for a family to love them.

 

We try to help any dogs we can, no matter of age, health, condition, or size.

 

Some of them have been here for a short time and sadly some longer.

Some will stay with us at the sanctuary for good.

Some of them are small and some large.

But they all just want to be loved.

They all have big hearts and are waiting to share them with families, or with us here.

They each have their own profiles or they are being created.

Please take a look and give those that can find a home a chance.

All dogs at the sanctuary have full medical and blood tests, full passport with innoculations and are sterilised or nuetured

If you are interested in adopting or fostering one of our babies please contact me as I would hate to miss any comments.

Thank you

Barkinside redt honden uit de omgeving en in heel Spanje. Ik assisteer ook andere reddingen die mijn hulp nodig hebben. indien gevraagd en in staat. Het opvangcentrum kan elke hond aan, ongeacht leeftijd, gezondheid of conditie. Ze worden verzorgd en gerehabiliteerd, krijgen een thuis of kunnen de rest van hun leven bij ons blijven. Wij helpen honden in de dodingstations van Spanje om vrijheid en veiligheid te vinden. We hebben lokale pleegouders die me helpen bij het geven van reddingen, huizen en stabiliteit. We redden honden waar we kunnen die niet meer te helpen zijn, te oud, te ziek, te gewond, te mentaal getekend/bang.

Wij zijn geen pensionkennel. We zijn geen protectora, dus we kunnen lokale zwerfhonden niet legaal oppikken. Voor deze service moet u een van de lokale hondenreddingsorganisaties Alma 622708013 of Hondon Valley Animal Rescue 676558432 bellen.

 

Deze website promoot de honden die onder onze hoede zijn en geeft regelmatig updates over hun vorderingen en welzijn. We plaatsen ook foto's en informatie over elke hond en het dagelijkse leven van de Rescue Centre en Sanctuary en het werk dat we hier doen.

 

Al het werk dat hier gebeurt, wordt gedaan door mensen met niets dan liefde in hun hart voor de honden en andere reddingsacties in residentie.

Barkinside heeft een geweldig ondersteuningssysteem binnen de hondenredding en de lokale gemeenschap zonder wie we niet verder zouden kunnen.

 

Je bent van harte welkom om ons te komen bezoeken, ik hou van niets liever dan bezoekers (om te spelen, wandelen of gewoon bij de honden te zitten, daar zijn speciale ruimtes voor gereserveerd), of om donaties mee te nemen, spullen voor de Bootbeurs of hopelijk adopteren /sponsor een hond. 

We zijn beschikbaar tussen 10.00 en 14.00 uur van maandag tot zaterdag op afspraak, alleen alsjeblieft, we zijn blij om flexibel te zijn als we kunnen. Gelieve te bellenNeem contact met ons op via deze site, bel ons op (+34)697122883, gebruik faceboOKboodschapper, of emailbarkinside69@aol.co.uk of als je wilt,  gebruik alstublieft deWhatsAppen knop beschikbaar onderaan elke pagina. 

PLEASE NOTE

 

Due to our already huge workload, the additional preparation and work required to support our new fundraising Car Boot Fairs has meant we've had to rearrange visiting times at Barkinside.

They are Tuesday to Friday from 10am to 2pm.

Strictly by appointment only.

 

On Saturday's we are now busy preparing for the boot fairs, and making some time for ourselves on Mondays gives us breathing space and time to unload the van, vets etc. 

 

Our working day averages 14 to 16 hours, with 36 dogs, horses, cats etc, so please be patient with us.

 

Up to date information on all Barkinside Events and Carboots, please click here or see below.

 

Our signal here in the mountains can be a bit iffy, so always best to WhatsApp message on 697122883 for contact or location information. You are always welcome to contact us anytime via the Barkinside Facebook Pages.

I will always help where I can, so please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.
