Our stall at the Dog Day.
Every year, the municipality of Fuengirola holds a 'Day of the Dog', a fair and dog show where all the rescue centres and organisations concerned with dogs come together. This year, the municipality of Mijas Costa decided to hold one too.
Although the weather didn't look promising at first, it turned out to be a glorious and very hot day. As the hours wore on more and more people arrived so it was very well attended. K9 Malaga gave a display as did the Guardia Civil with their drug sniffing dogs and there were of course competions for clever dogs, beautiful dogs and the rest.
The A.C.E. stall was colourful with all kinds of wares. Three of our students - Jamie, Naomi and Kelly - came along to help, as did Diane, Marielle, Miguel, Stephen, Denise and Quani from Algeciras Shelter. And of course Fabienne and Dirk. Fabienne, Quani, a member of the Guardia Civil and a gentleman from Animal Protection spoke on a platform, urging people to sterilise their dogs and explaining some of the problems that are encountered daily.

Wonderful photographs of our 'happy endings' dogs.
