Adopting a dog is an important decision that will help dogs who are in need, but it’s not just dogs in the UK who need help. There are many adoption centres around the world with dogs who are looking for their forever homes, this article will outline how you can adopt a dog from a dog rescue centre in Malaga, the south of Spain.
Spain has a big issue with stray dogs, especially when the hunting season ends, when many dogs are abandoned and hunters no longer have a purpose for the dogs.
There are so many incredible rescue centres in and around Malaga, here are some of them:

They work in combination with the police and the local environment group, as well as the civil guard, firefighters, road maintenance, and airports in order to protect the wellbeing of animals and rescue those who need it.

Hi,
I’m from Sweden but currently studying in Málaga. Just outside the building are two dogs. They are kept chained 23 hours a day all alone. The only contact they get is when an older man comes one hour a day (if even that long). They bark all the time.
In Sweden this would be illegal with respect to animal protection laws, but I don’t know what Spanish regulations say. Could you advice me what I can do?
Regards,
Björn
