    Hi, guys thank you for sharing this video, I am so happy to see that we have this Malcata Animal Association helping dogs that need a home in Penamacor, Portugal.
    I will be sharing this association on my blog and social too.

Really interesting video as we have found a little plot in Pedrogão , buildings are in need of everything doing but hey, a little at a time we will get there . Love the work they are doing here and I have messaged them to see if we can help out (when we get over there or before)So thank you again for putting this up as they really need to be more well known.
    Have a great day ,Lorna

What a loss, and obviously it's been a struggle... I'm guessing his wife's legacy is keeping him going on. Doing all of this out of love. I definitely will visit once I get over to Portugal!

    Great content! Another fine video contribution, and interview by Gina, showcasing local agencies focused on animal support of one kind or another. A great use/feature of the platform you've built. Parabens!! Between your own farm and surroundings/animals, the real estate videos and the locals helping with farming, bees, dogs, etc., it's always enjoyable tuning in.

      OKportugal , travel extensively thru the world, when we see these kinds of issues in my own country, the impulse is to donate and help, unfortunately the recipient will not have more set ups to receive....PayPal is not appealing, we do not wish to donate to them, every dollar spend on PayPal is one hungry puppy. The possibility to donate thru cc from anywhere in the world without third party would be awesome. What’s your opinion?

Alternatively people can order food or supplies and get them delivered to the association.

      @@OKportugal yeah for sure. Its my great pleasure man, you have a great channel. The fact that you are a SA guy make me understand you much better and its cool to see what you guys do and what other farmers in your area do. I come from commercial agri background and I am still involved in that sector, unfortunately me and friends have over the years suffered lots of dollars in damage caused by stray feral dogs, so its a bit of a raw nerve, and I know i should mostly keep my mouth shut on social media but eish then i talk hahahahahahaa, we call them skaapdiewe and feel the only thing they need is a .22, but also i LOVE dogs and cats and all animals, but thry should be trained and kept very well, and someone that does not keep their animals well should probably also get a .22 or heavily fined or jailed, the balance is very important to me. Keep up the great work you are doing.
