Puppies just a few months old like Ibiza, Trufa or Irma, other young people less than 2 years old like Dick, Ícaro, Gaspar or Set or adults like Nudo, 6 years old, have seen how their destiny changed and found a family that gives them all their care. affection and care and to whom they will give all their fidelity and love. Abandonment stories which finish with a happy ending, not only for the dogs but for the people who will live with them. Some, like NUDO, will meet her new partner tomorrow because he has been adopted by several people in a family as a gift and company for the grandmother. Others like Dick in a home with children, stories of encounter and harmony that help us understand the responsability and compromise of some against the irresponsible behavior of others.
It is very important that people become aware that You can't give a dog on a whim., as if it were a “thing”. They are beings that give us their absolute fidelity and their abandonment is an act of cruelty. Adopting a dog is an act of solidarity which, in addition to making whoever receives it happy, offers the animal the opportunity to have a home.
