This es "Bess", abandoned by a British woman; we have already reported her to the police...

Do you want to adopt or sponsor an animal of the Bú Bup Parc?

 

In May 30th 2000, during a session presided over by Mayor Ramón Romaguera, the city council of La Bisbal d'Empordà approved a proposal to transfer us a land, near 9.000 square meters, located in "Olivar de Baix". That place has become "Bú Bup Parc - La Bisbal d'Empordà" where abandoned animals have found a home thanks to the solidarity of this city.

Along with other reasons, the minutes of that session records that the transfer had been approved because the city would benefit by such a shelter for abandoned dogs.

To plan building, Fundación Altarriba tried to unify the three fields of the wide animal protection work:

  • First, DIRECT ASSISTANCE sheltering real animals in a real situation of abandonment, in a place where welfare is a priority, with a permanent staff experienced in animal care.
  • Second, as an EDUCATIONAL TARGET, our shelter has been inspired by our own experience and similar places in other countries appreciated and supported by their fellow citizens.
  • The third field is to offer ADVICE and support to other associations, a point directly linked to Bu Bup Parc itself; building and development can be an example for an updated conception of an animal shelter, going beyond the traditional ones and having in mind criteria ignored today.

The question is to avoid a view that could make visitors to get the false idea that animals there sheltered are not healthy. It is really difficult to imagine as a lively dog running and playing in our garden that animal caged in front of us, undernourished and depressive, along with other ten ones in the same conditions, in a shelter that should be congratulated for a lot of effort just to keep them alive.

Since 2002, many thousand dollars have been already invested to build Bú Bup Parc.

It will be finally possible thanks to the members of Fundación Altarriba and donations.
