500
Patudo
In 2018, Sandra (Olhão) asked us to sterilise Minie (No 94). Here we have her next adoption, 2-year old Patudo who needed the snip and microchipping. Although her income is limited, Sandra gave us a donation and was so appreciative of our help and…… Patudo became StreetLife’s 500th Sterilisation!!!! It was nice to see you again, Sandra.
Dixie
499
Another rescue situation by StreetEye Dineke near Loule; 8 month old stray, Dixie turned up at a house; fortunately not pregnant. Dineke asked StreetLife to help with sterilisation prior to rehoming and we agreed. Dixie is now with a foster carer while Dineke searches for a new home for her.
Lizzy
498
StreetEye Dineke stepped in to help some folk near Ribeira de Algibre with a pregnant stray. After checking on her a few times and naming her Lizzy, Dineke asked StreetLife to sterilise her. She was indeed very pregnant and as she had an infection in her womb, it was fortuitous that this was accomplished. Well done Dineke!
Kiko
497
Filipe lives near Olhão and we’ve been sterilising his dogs over recent weeks at the request of Brenda (APAR volunteer). Here is the next one – Kiko, and Brenda helped out with the logistics again so thank you Brenda.
496
Estrela
A lost lady, Estrela turned up at Débora's house (near Faro). Unclaimed, Débora offered her a home with her two other dogs. When she went on heat the local chaps negotiated the fence easily and Estrela would climb the fence herself for some action! Well done StreetEye Carla who got Estrela to the vet before she became pregnant again.
Chico
495
Paula from Tavira contacted us to ask for help with sterilising this delightfully scruffy chap, who turned up at her house last year and decided to stay (albeit with a little encouragement 😊). Paula named him Chico and he does look rather relaxed doesn’t he? That’s probably because he knows he can’t get into trouble now!
Gremling
494
After steriliseing Kira (No 487) and Luna (No 490) who both live with Filipe, here is Gremling who’s just been sterilised too. There is one more to go…. Kiko who’s surgery had to be re-scheduled because he’d been fed. We’ll get there and then everyone can relax. Once again, Brenda (APAR volunteer) helped with logistics so good teamwork all around!
493
Johnny
After steriliseing Kira (No 487) and Luna (No 490) who both live with Filipe, here is Johnny who’s just been sterilised too. There is one more to go…. Kiko who’s surgery had to be re-scheduled because he’d been fed. We’ll get there and then everyone can relax. Once again, Brenda (APAR volunteer) helped with logistics so good teamwork all around!
492
Gabi
Diana (Faro) contacted us about Gabi, a dog she rescued. Gabi was on heat and wasn’t impressed with the other dog’s attempts to play. Things calmed down when Gabi finished her heat and she's enjoying playing nicely with her new friend. Now sterilisation done and ownership formally changed to Diana who can now rest easy.
Lolita
491
Lolita was a two year old stray found locally who was rescued along with her puppies. A local shelter is taking good care of them all. The mum is now sterilised and the puppies are up for adoption.
Luna
490
A short while ago we sterilised Kira (see No 487 below) who belongs to Filipe. Here is his second dog Luna who is 2½ years old. Once again, Brenda (a volunteer at APAR) helped out with logistics so good teamwork all round.
489
Zeni
Young Zeni was left by his owner with her Grandmother who found him hard to handle so sterilisation was proposed. Because he’s a bundle of energy, StreetEye Dineke has to reschedule his surgery and a sedative was necessary to get him to his sterilisation appointment. It’s all good now so everyone can relax.
488
Tiggar
Dayse (No 474 below) turned up at Julian’s house and after a litter, we sterilised her. Here we have Tiggar who is Julian’s other dog and looks like such a happy soul. Julian’s plot is not yet fenced and he asked for help before Tiggar goes on heat again. Our ever-active StreetEye, Carla, took care of it and now all is well.
Kira
487
Brenda, a volunteer at APAR chatted to Filipe (Olhão) who has five dogs; one female has recently given birth to 7 puppies. StreetEye Roseane asked for help and we agreed because Filipe is already paying off large Vet bills. Two-year old Kira, energetic and beautiful; we want to avoid more litters. We’ll be doing more of his dogs - watch this space!
Nikita
486
Julia (Pechão) contacted us in 2020 about neutering her dog. Lockdown delayed things but we recently contacted Julia who advised that her female dog, Nikita went on heat and even though separated, the male got to her and Nikita became pregnant. Fortunately, we were piloting our online sterilisation application form and Nikita went to our partner vets in Faro for the procedure. Next, it's the male's turn!
485
Vitoria
This is 18-month old Vitoria and she lives with Diva (No 484) and her family in Vale Civo. Her human father is a hunter and was concerned that her hunting instinct would be impacted if she was sterilised. Dineke however convinced him that it would make no difference so Vitoria was also sterilised.... so no more unwanted litters in their home! 😊
484
Diva
StreetEye Dineke was asked by a friend to help a couple from Vale Civo. Eight-year old Diva has had many puppies and her owners simply didn’t want any more so needed her sterilised. We agreed that this lady has more than had her share of puppies.... so the lovely Diva has been sterilised.
Ruby
483
Ema (Loule) emailed StreetLife about Ruby, who she took in after finding her under a car. Ruby went on heat and the family had a bad time because they were under siege by several male dogs. We couldn’t visit because of Covid so we used our new online application system to collect details. We agreed to help and Ruby won’t be attracting any more unwelcome attention in the future. Job done!
Linda
482
A few weeks ago we sterilised Cinzenta and Princesa (478 and 479) who were assessed by StreetEye Roseane. Six year old Linda who (fortunately) was not pregnant was next to be sterilised. Several people offered to help their elderly owner Nilda and kindly offered dog food. Roseane has just collected 9 bags, so thank you to those who helped out.
481
Preta
Ana lives near Olhão with her dog. Unfortunately, her Dad died and she inherited 3 males and 3 females, two of whom were sterilised. Ana contacted StreetLife about Preta (7 years) wishing to avoid unplanned puppies in her extended family. StreetEye Carla knows Ana and after assessment, we agreed to help. All went well so everyone can now relax. 😊
480
Draco
This is Draco (just 7 months) who lives with Susana near Faro with 3 other dogs, one of which is also a pit bull like Draco. They have been chipped and registered (as is the law) but as there have been some scraps between them, Susana asked for help with sterilisation. Draco was first and he’s recovering from his snip. No. 2 to be scheduled soon!
Princesa
479
Princesa is the sister of Cinzenta (No 478). She is also part of this large group of dogs and we're thankful to StreetEye Roseane for keeping an eye on situations just like this one. Thankfully, we were able to sterilise both of these dogs and we know that we'll be called on to take care of more of them.
Cinzenta
478
StreetEye Roseane came across an elderly lady with limited resources and 12+ dogs, some of whom are always pregnant. They are fed on bread, water and scraps. APAR has taken dogs from these dogs previously. This is Cinzenta who was pregnant when Roseane recommended sterilisation. There are some more to do later... wiithout saying more, we're sure everyone knows how we feel!
477
Mimi
Little Mimi is 6 years old and had been a faithful companion until her elderly owner died. She is now with a temporary foster family (FAT) and StreetEye Carla asked us to help get her sterilised before she is put up for adoption. Let’s hope she finds a nice new home – shouldn’t be too difficult with that big smiley face! 😊
476
Siri
Tânia (St Catarina da Fonte do Bispo) has a puppy.... Siri who she wanted sterilised because of frisky males in the area. Tania is active in animal welfare and knew about StreetLife so when Siri was ready, she contacted us. As she's out of work, we were happy to assist and as her English is excellent, she helped us with some translations... thank you Tânia. 😊
Diana
475
Maria Helena (Pechão) has lots of animals. StreetEye Carla realised this situation, visited last year and saw three female dogs needing sterilisation because of dogs in the vicinity. We did the first one (Kika) last year and now it’s Diana’s turn. Diana (4 years) recently had a litter (now rehomed) so we need to stop that. Carla took care of everything (as usual 😊). We’ll sterilise the third one when she’s a bit older.
Dayse
474
Julian is rebuilding his house near Moncarapacho, and a few weeks ago a stray bitch delivered her litter in his yard. Julian didn’t know what to do with all these puppies so he contacted APAR who collected them. Julian said he would be happy to keep the mum, who he named Dayse, if he could get help sterilising her. StreetEye Carla took care of everything for us.
473
Julieta
So here we have little Julieta who was found wondering alone in Maragota. She’s a little over 2 years old and – fortunately – was not pregnant. She was taken to the APAR shelter and StreetEye Roseane (who also volunteers at APAR) asked if we could help with sterilisation so she could be put up for adoption. All taken care of! 😊
472
Gaia
Sónia lives in the countryside near Moncarapacho. She adopted Gaia and her brother from the APAR shelter when they were puppies. At 8 months old she's about to go on heat, so Sónia asked StreetEye Carla if we could help with the cost of sterilisation because Gaia is a big girl. 😊 With a nice donation from Sónia, it was nice and simple...... for once!
Valentina
471
Late last year Dineke, our StreetEye in Loule, came across a skinny dog that she caught and noticed that she was producing milk. The next day she found 3 new-born puppies. When the puppies were weaned, we sterilised mum so she could be put up for adoption. All went well, and we even managed to recruit a new partner vet in the process, so a great result all round.
Braga
470
Social, playful Braga (….. who likes cats!) lives in a perilous situation with other dogs. Our friends 2ndHand4Footers asked for help sterilise to her before she became pregnant which we did. She's ready to be rehomed which shouldn’t be too difficult (we hope!) and we’re keen to do her mother too so she doesn’t have any more litters. She has a litter with every heat event and many of the puppies die.
469
Julie
So here is Julie, the mother of 10 puppies and sister of Mira who we recently sterilised (see No. 465 below). Our friends at 2ndHand4Footers have managed to find homes for all 10 puppies by working with their Belgian colleagues 😊 😊 so it’s time to stop this happening again. Job done!
468
Boneca
Boneca, an 18 month old dog originally lived with gypsies who didn’t treat her very well. She was being fed by a neighbour and then went on heat, resulting in a lot of male dog visits. She was rescued and we happily agreed to sponsor her sterilisation. Fortunately, she was not pregnant so we obviously got to her in time. Because we don’t have a photo, she’ll have to be a “mystery lady”.
Safira
467
Intuitively Safira, a street dog on heat, arrived at Christine's house (StreetLife team member). She was trying to escape males and APAR took her in. She was sterilised by StreetLife before the pups were born and here she is looking a little forlorn, but being cared for by two APAR volunteers. No doubt she'll be up and about within 2-3 days.
Bramble
466
Found near some bins by the walking group “Take a Gamble and Come for a Ramble”, they rescued this 12-week old female who was thin and limping and called her….Bramble. Fostered by Liam and Denise, some generous donations paid for a vet visit that revealed ear infections and tick fever. Over the next weeks, it became clear that she’d found her forever home with her foster family.
465
Mira
Mira and her sister were abandoned in Vilarinhos and fed by a kind Ukranian lady. Because the authorities were not informed, 10 pups were born to the sister and the lady took them in but enquired at 2ndHand4Footers about sterilising Mira. Mira was done and the mother will be sterilised when the pups have been weaned and/or rehomed. Good job!
464
Gypsy
Ana (Maragota) found Gypsy and a vet check confirmed that she was not chipped. Ana did find the owner, by chance but he didn't want Gypsy signed her over. Worried that she might become pregnant, Ana called on StreetEye Carla a but Gipsy escaped and was hit by a car... fortunately no serious injury and the sterilisation was done just beofre Christmas. She's now with her adoptive family - a good result!
Ginga
463
Here we have Ginja who was repeatedly pregnant and apparently became quite sad. New StreetEye Helena discovered the situation and asked if we could sterilise Ginja, because her owner Ana didn’t know what to do. We agreed to help with a donation from the owner, and Helena organised everything for Ginja and Ana. Well done!
Sushi
462
Claudia contacted us about little Sushi who had recently a litter of 6, which resulted in overcrowding in their apartment in Faro. The puppies were all rehomed but Claudia didn’t want any more, so she spoke with a vet and StreetEye Ana who pointed her in our direction. We visited to assess the situation and agreed to help, so all is now well.
461
Vitoria
A local lady found two puppies alone in the countryside, so she took them home and bottle-fed them. A few weeks later the mother Vitoria appeared at the same spot with two more puppies, so now they’re all at the shelter together being looked after. Job well done!
460
Gigi
So, here we have two rescues (Vitoria 461) currently being looked after by our friends at APAR. Gigi was found inside a plantation with her puppies; she had a bad skin condition and the puppies had no hair, but now they are all much better and one of the puppies has already been adopted.
Nancy
459
Back in September Sérgio from Olhão asked us to help with little Nikita (439 below). Well, here we have Nancy who is Nikita’s daughter and the family rightly wanted her sterilised as well, so StreetEye Carla took care of things as usual and now Nikita and Nancy can play without getting into trouble. 😊
Boogie
458
Fabi (Olhão) contacted us in August about sterilising his dog Boogie. As we were all in the middle of lockdowns etc. we suggested waiting till later in the year when things improved (have they?). We finally managed to visit Fabio and were introduced to Boogie (a pit bull cross), so sterilisation and microchipping is mandatory for the little fellow. Job done! 😊
457
Bubulina
StreetEye Inês recently asked us to help Elena who had taken in an abandoned dog. With two females, one of which we steriised in June, she was concerned that the new boy would impregnante little Bubulina. StreetEye Inês swung into action, with paperwork and logistics and all went smoothly. Fortunately, little Bubulina was not pregnant! Well done all!
456
Joana
A request for help came from Fatima, Quarteira – an area we don’t usually cover. Other local organisations declined to help but with a donation, we agreed to the sterilisation. Joana is a Rhodesian Ridgeback cross and is wary of strangers, so handling her was a bit of a concern. However, it all went well and she was taken to one of our newer Vet partners.
Marfi
455
StreetLife received a request from an employee at the Faro MARF warehouse. There was a nervous, stray podengo wandering around and we said that if she could be caught, we would arrange sterilisation. Eventually, "Marfi" was caught and adopted by Vânia who lives in Sao Bras with two other dogs. StreetEye Carla visited and Marfi was sterilised.
Fofinha
454
Isabelle (Estoi) rescued Fofinha, a pregnant street dog in Aug 20. She managed to rehome most of the puppies but one sadly died of parvo virus. She decided to keep mom and a daughter but as there are also two male dogs a Vet suggested StreetLife. The situation was assessed and we agreed to help with a donation from Isabelle. Done and dusted. 😊
453
Linda
Our friends at 2ndHand4Footers found Linda who lived with a local family in less than ideal conditions. She had already had 5 litters and Marie and Adrian had helped to rehome them. They felt however that enough was enough and asked for our help as part of our Nov-Dec sterilisation campaign. We were happy to help so no more problems for Linda.
452
Anita
Sometimes APAR ask StreetLife for help with sterilisations, particularly for females, before they are put up for adoption, and we are happy to help. They pay for check-ups, de-worming, vaccinations, microchipping and other medical expenses associated with the dogs encountered. Anita, who was tough to catch, was sterilised alongside Frozen.
Frozen
451
Our friends at APAR do a great job trying to keep up with, and rescue, the abandoned dogs around Moncarapacho. Here we have Frozen and Anita (No 452) both of whom were pregnant, but we managed to get to them in time to prevent more strays on the streets.
Tia
450
Tia lives in Porto Carvalhoso with a friend (a labrador male), one of her sons and her owner Maria. She spends her days running free and playing in the fields, but became pregnant again. Maria contacted APAR who helped rehome Tia’s last litter and StreetEye Carla assessed the situation. We agreed to help and now she can play without getting into trouble.
449
Hyndia
Two-year old Hyndia lives with Carlos and son David in Moncarapacho. Hyndia had a litter recently and Carlos asked StreetEye Carla for rehoming help. To prevent another unplanned pregnancy Carlos agreed to sterilise Hyndia - he offered a donation and StreetLife did the rest. Hyndia was diagnosed with Heartworm and will need medication.
448
Kika
A typical situation..... an elderly lady (Helena) with lots of anmals (cats, dogs, chickens, etc) and modest circumstances. Her neighbour recommended StreetLife and StreetEye Carla persuaded Helena to sterilise the 4-year old Kika who had produced a litter 4 months ago. It was all organised and we'll be back later, to sterilise the rest.
Borboleta
447
Borboleta belonged to a hunter but got pregnant so, typically, she was abandoned. She was rescued by our friends at APAR who talked to the owner (he had at least chipped her) but he didn’t want her back. So APAR asked if we could help with termination and sterilisation. Of course we agreed and little Borboleta is now looking for a new home.
Piloto
446
Ana Cristina also has a male named Piloto and given that Moly (No 445) had joined the family and would be sterilised, she wanted Piloto to have the snip. Because their financial circumstances were poor, StreetEye Carla organised it all but because he had tick fever, we had to wait a while. Both are free to play now without getting into trouble. Well done all! 😊
445
Moly
Ana Cristina lives in Arrochela near Pechão. On her way to work one day, she found a little dog on the street covered in ticks and fleas. She took her home and called her Moly. However, afraid Moly would become pregnant Ana's daughter contacted StreetLife for help. StreetLife Carla, after an assessment, organised Moly's sterilisation.
444
Sol
Sol is a small dog who lived on the streets near Olhão. One day Elvira saw her and decided to offer her a home. Elvira is very fond of animals and as she already has many other rescue cats and dogs, she approached StreetLife. StreetEye Carla visited and we agreed to help, so Sol will now go to live with Elvira's parents and all is good. Well done Carla!
Leia
443
Leia, a Rafeiro Alentejano lives in Quatrim do Sul with Stefanie and son, Jonas. Because the fence around their property could not keep the boys out, they decided to sterilise Leia. StreetEye Carla did the assessment and with a donation, the uncooperative Leia (30kg) was carried into the exam room by Stephanie and vet Patricia!
Nina
442
Nina (just seven months old) was rescued from the streets near Olhão by Marta. Unfortunately, because Nina was pregnant, Marta asked for our help, as she has a limited income. We visited them and arranged to sterilise Nina (who is completely mad!), with a donation. Nina is still mad but at least she won’t get into any more trouble with the local lads.
441
Perdita
During a long-overdue visit to the APAR shelter StreetEye Roseane introduced us to Perdita who had been rescued from the streets in Pereiro near Moncarapacho. Suspecting that she was pregnant, StreetLife was asked to help. We agreed and she was taken care of by one of our partner vets in Olhão. Great work guys and gals!
440
Kika
Kika (2 years old) lives with her owner Elvina near Moncarapacho. She's vaccinated and chipped but Elvina could not afford the full cost of sterilisation, so StreetEye Carlota got involved and we agreed to help with a donation from Elvina. Carlota managed logistics and everything went well so Kika can now play without getting into trouble.
Nikita
439
Nikita (Olhão) has a “boy friend” who lives with her ....not neutered, so she sometimes gets pregnant. The family manages to rehome the babies, but have realised that it was time to spay Nikita. She was pregnant and due to financial constraints, StreetLife stepped in via StreetEye Carla. With a donation, we offered to help and it was all taken care of.
Laika
438
Laila, a big 3-year old girl (35kg) lives near Tavira. Owner Joaquim, worried that she was pregnant, asked his vet about sterilisation. The cost was too high so StreetEye Carlota got involved and Laika was treated by a partner vet in Tavira. Fortunately, she was not pregnant and Joaquim was happy to make a generous donation. Good job everyone!
437
Poppy
This is Poppy, sister to Janice..... after assessing the situation, StreetLife agreed to help Telma with the sterilisaiton of both dogs. With a donation towards the cost StreetLife was able to sterilise Poppy and Janice. A wonderful outcome for what could have been an awful situation for Telma.
436
Janice
Telma (Faro) has 4 dogs (3 rescued). Unfortunately, her 2 female dogs went on heat and became pregnant, so a friend who works with an animal welfare organisation in Faro referred her to Streetlife because their vet was on holiday. Janice (named after the late Janice Joplin) and Poppy were sterilised.
Ntesa
435
Ntesa is the daughter of Muema (No 434) who had 7 puppies. Three were rehomed by Sharron and Lidia kept one and rehomed the other three. We visited Lidia to assess the situation and agreed to the sterilisations, with a donation towards the cost. All went according to plan - more great teamwork!
434
Muema
Our good friend Sharron over at Cacela Dog Haven asked if we could help out with this situation. Lidia and her dog, Muema, came over from Mozambique to live in Estoi but unfortunately, nature took its course (even with a fenced plot) and Muema became pregnant and produced seven puppies. (No 435).
Aisha
433
This is Aisha, sister to Bobita (No 432). Ana Maria enquired at her local vet about termination and sterilisation and he suggested that she contact StreetLife, because the cost of sterilising these two was beyond her means. We agreed to help and with a donation from Ana Maria's family, it was all taken care of.
Bobita
432
The 7-year old Bobita and her sister (No 433) just wanted to run around and bark excitedly when we visited their owner, Ana Maria in Quelfes. Ana Maria rescued these two from the streets but they both became pregnant due to males in the area while she was at work. StreetLife to the rescue.
431
Indy
A little bundle of mischief, 6-month old Indy was left in a box on the doorstep of Ana Paula's house (Loule). Ana Paula took her in (despite having 4 rescued cats) and since she's on part-time layoff due to Covid-19, her local vet suggested StreetLife. After assessing Indy and a donation from Ana Paula, we agreed to the sterilisation.
430
Maria
So, this is Maria whose plight was discovered by Cèlia at ADAPO because she belongs to the same man as Menina (No 427). Once again, her owner wasn't taking proper care of her so she got pregnant. He was persuaded to get her terminated and sterilised to prevent the same thing happening again.
Kyara
429
Ana Luisa (Tavira) adopted the 5-month Kyara from a homeless man and had her vaccinated etc. Sadly, she lost her job so contacted StreetLife to see if we could help. She also needed her other dog, Boris Jnr (!) to be done. StreetEye Carlota made the arrangements but on the day, Boris wasn't snipped. One out of two is better than none!
Xica
428
Maria is elderly and lives in Santa Barbara de Nexe. She contacted StreetLife to see if we could help with 3-year old Xica who managed to become pregnant. Maria agreed to a donation and the sterilisation went ahead, as planned. A few less unwanted puppies in that neck of the woods!
427
Menina
Our friend Cèlia at ADAPO contacted us about a gentleman in Olhão with little money and too many dogs that he couldn't care for adequately. As a result, Menina became pregnant. Cèlia persuaded the owner to allow a termination and sterilisation. He even made a small donation. Job done!
426
Poppy
Found wandering on a busy road in Pechão, StreetEye Corine picked Poppy up and checked for a microchip. With the help of StreetEye Carla and FB, they found the owner who was abroad. As her children were clearly not taking good care of the pup, she was persuaded to sterilise and rehome Poppy. Great effort!
Lucy
425
StreetEye Nádia told us about two pure-bred Belgian Shepherd females (Lucy and Bella) who needed to be rehomed due to "life circumstances" with her owners. She organised a foster home but to avoid an adoption for financial gain, we decided to help with their sterilisation. All went well.
Bella
424
This is Bella.... the sister of Lucy and a beautiful, pure-bred Belgian Shepherd female. It's always sad when families are no longer able to keep their pets but with sterilisation and taking care with her adoption, we're sure she'll find another loving home.
423
Aysha
StreetEye Carla heard about Aysha from friends who feed stray dogs in Cerro Azul. Carla started visitng the scared Aysha to make friends but could not catch her. When she went missing, some local folk agreed to continue to try and catch her. The plan worked and Carla took her to the APAR shelter to ready her for surgery.
422
Menina
A few weeks ago, we sterilised Mancha who belongs to Bruno (see No 417 below). Here is her 2-year old sister Menina who we also agreed to take care of, helped by Helena once again. We all met up at the vet and Bruno gave a nice donation towards the costs. Teamwork at its bestl
Luna
421
Originally from Alentejo, Carmen who lives in Olhão, found little Luna living on the streets of Alentejo near her family's home. She checked for a microchip, fed her and waited to see if she was claimed. Carmen and her two daughters decided to adopt Luna who, it turns out, was pregnant. She was sterilised in time - well done everyone!
Nita
420
Our friends over at APAR are inundated with dogs at their shelter needing sterilisation. Beause we try to help out when we can, this is Nita who is a little over a year old and was about to go on heat so, StreetEye Roseane (who is active at APAR) asked if we could help out and we agreed, of course. We hope Nita finds a new home soon.
419
Boneca
The 3-year old appeared on the farm of Manuel, near Tavira. As a neighbour of StreetEye Carlota, we had helped Manuel previously (March19). Boneca was pregnant and Carlota helped rehome the puppies before suggesting that we sterilise her. Manuel offered a donation and it was all taken care of, without a hitch. Thanks to all!!
418
Ness
Cristina and her father live near Pechão and always help animals. They were fostering the little 6-month old Ness, pending rehoming. Because they'd fallen in love with her, they decided to keep here and contacted StreetEye Carla for help with sterilisation. We agreed to help.... just in time, as she was pregnant. Good job!
Mancha
417
Bruno lives near Moncarapacho with a couple of rescue dogs. A friendly lady, Helena, contacted StreetEye Roseane. After a chat, Bruno agreed to sterilise the two females. This is 18-month old Mancha who'd already had a litter, so sterilisation was critical before she went on heat again. Helena kindly gave us a nice donation.
Pandora
416
The 18-month old Pandora lives with Luis, near Pechão. Currently, Luis has no work but has still managed to vaccinate Pandora and takes good care of her. Pandora has had a litter and the puppies have been adopted. Tatiana, who adopted a puppy, told us that Luis didn't want Pandora to have any more puppies. StreetEye Carla sorted it out!
415
Dory
Paula lives near Luz de Tavira and has many rescue dogs and cats. The 7-month old Dory also landed on Paula's doorstep and immediately went on heat. Despite fenced areas, she became pregnant. Paula could not afford the local vet's fees so via a few friends, she found StreetLife. StreetEye Carlota took on the case and Dory was sterilised.
414
Pantufa
Angela from Tavira contacted us via Facebook. She rescued little Pantufa from the streets and sensibly, didn't want her to get pregnant. She heard about StreetLife from some friends so it's nice to know the word is getting around. StreetEye Carlota visited her to assess the situation and we agreed to help with a contribution to the costs.
Diana
413
Alexandre from Fuseta asked our partner vets about sterilising his dogs (a male and a female.... so, a sensible decision). They told him to contact StreetLife but CV-19 and lock down got in the way. He managed to get little 3-year old Diana to the vet in June and she was duly spayed and microchipped. Here she is, post-surgery and pretty happy!
Molly
412
In April StreetEye Louise rescued a little dog abandoned by gypsies. Checked for leish, tick fever etc, vaccinated and chipped she was offered for adoption and StreetLife agreed to assist with sterilisation. Fostered by Meghan and John (Nova Cacela de Velha), they donated generously and decided to adopt her. It turned out well!
411
Pufitsa
Pufitsa, a 4-year old, lives in Olhão with Elena and family who could not afford a sterilisation. Pufitsa has had a couple of litters. She recently became pregnant again and a neighbour contacted us. StreetEye Inês swung into action and the arrangements were quickly made. Elena was able to make a donation - well done everyone!

Zebadoo
Of the four dogs rescued by Jan and Mark from Animals Lost Paradise Found, Zebadoo and No 409 were the last to be sterilised. The first two sterilised were No 403 and No 404. It seems that these sterilisations were essential given that there were some very frisky young chaps in the area.

Let's introduce you to Lulu who, together with Zebadoo (No 410), Pinkster (No 403) and Rockie (No 404), was sterilised having been rescued by Jan and Mark from Animals Lost Paradise Found. Go to their FB page if you're keen to adopt.
