Update on the 50 dogs rescued from the killing station


It was quite a job: 50 defenseless dogs in our midst. They were lucky, they got a chance. A lot of them are on the way to happiness, the golden basket is waiting for many, but unfortunately
we have lost nine of them in the struggle against the injustice inflicted on them.

They were so underfed and neglected as they had been so long without food and care. Despite how hard we fought to save them, lost the battle. It's so sad. They did not deserve to come into this world only to be so neglected, to be treated like that and then, when they were finally saved, to die.
how hard we have also fought for them, we have lost the battle with them ... So sad ...

Those who went:

8 + Mango + 10 Beer + 23 Evi + 28 Perra
29 + Faith + 30 Happy
31 Layka + + + 38 Trasko 39 Isabel

The other dogs are on the mend. Some are very ill, but Wonder for example, number 50, is cured of pneumonia. Joye and Semmy are getting better and we can save them.

We would like to thank again everyone who sympathized with us and helped save them. It is always heartening when you see  these dogs gradually get back an appetite for life, when you see them strong again, standing on their feet again and playing in the meadow. Only when they are all in their golden basket will our little project be complete and our hearts warmed again!

May 2016 be 'The Year of Golden Baskets and Forever Homes'



Eternal and never ending thanks to Fabienne, Dirk and every single person who does anything, large or small, to help and save the dogs (and the cats). Respect and admiration and may all your wishes come true in 2016 and may all animals have a better future, including our darling ones.

Sandor - the perfect dog


Sandor (formerly Fuego) - a beautiful soul

It's more than four years since Sandor came to us and time flies!

It sometimes seems only yesterday that we were anxiously waiting for him at the airport. The beginning of an adventure, because no one usually chooses a dog that you have never seen in real life?

But funnily enough, I after seeing his picture on the Internet, knew immediately that this was just my dog. Without wanting to sound too airy-fairy, I felt his energy and I knew it was good.

Sandor is just about everything I was looking for in a dog. So we are so very happy with him. The people of ACE have saved him from the death station, trained him and looked after him for six months and taught him to understand that not all people are bad for animals.

Really a big kudos to all the people at ACE, because the aftercare was so good. Sandor has discovered that now, to put it quite simply, he is a spoiled prince (in the good sense of the word), and this is how it should be.


Greetings from Mai Mai, Mieke and Sandor (Fuego)



New Year's Wishes




Best wishes to the volunteers and everyone who is committed to ACE-SHIN, every day. Including those who volunteer to help with the building and those who have sponsored.

May the good and hard work in the future further contribute to improving the lot of many Spanish dogs in need.

So we we will all continue to believe and carry on the good work.

Best wishes from

Our SHIN-dogs: Plumita, Lisa, Manuel, Fleur (Collie) and from us -
Guy Cools & Hilde Jadot

New Year. New Home.


Arrivals - Schiphol December 30

Here are the dogs who arrived yesterday, with many thanks to the adopters who again arrived with many gifts.

Unfortunately there is no group photo because two of the dogs were reluctant to leave their benches and we persuaded them to come out with great difficulty.


Rafa had already indicated, in Spain, that she really did not like being in the cage.



Pretty Dolce, now Hugo, found it all very strange and at first was very anxious but when he saw his new friend he felt better.



Viva took to her new owner immediately. 



And then Rouska who is going into foster with Andre.  But I believe that they immediately fell in love with each other, so I'm going to cross my fingers that she has already found her basket.

With many thanks to our star flight escort, Saskia.
