Our mission is helping the abandoned dogs of Pico and neighbouring islands become good pets and life companions, so that they can be adopted by forever loving families. Encouraging the social integration of dogs with families and communities through sharing relevant experiences and opening our rescue centre to the public will also be an essential aspect of our mission.
Pico Dogs would not exist today if it wasn’t for the success of our core project – international adoptions which aims at increasing the number of dogs that leave the always crowded local dog shelters to join a forever family.
Pico Dogs Rescue Centre will be a temporary home for dogs that have been selected as suitable for adoption, a place where we will provide them with all their basic needs, but also with the extra training needed to prepare them for their new life ahead.
