BARKINSIDE SANCTUARY: Where Dogs with a Story Find Their Forever Home

Die Binnenlander 12th May 2026

Two Barkinside stories from the last week -

Duque and Popcorn.

While they might look like they have nothing in common, they are  both good examples of what happens at Barkinside and what we do.....the pain, worry, and heartache, the tears and the joy - all of it is the right thing to do for the animals - whatever the cost, its always worth it and thats why Barkinside has managed to help almost 700 dogs in the eleven years its been going, and why Barkinside will continue doing this. 
​They both had a life beyond their dreams....they had everything, access to healthcare, comfort, security, decent regular food, and most importantly....Barkinside LOVE.

Popcorn has gone to live his best life with a beautiful new family who are already head over heels in love with him - tears of joy for this one.

Bittersweet tears for Duque, so sad he has gone, but also so happy to have been able to give him the very best of everything and to be loved by him <3

​​Barkinside Babies, Residents and those looking for homes

 

If you would like to Sponsor any of our rescues you would help us greatly.

 

Our spending on food, vets bills, special dietary requirements, medical care is a huge monthly expense and we are in a constant struggle with it daily.

We always have over 30 dogs in our care and others coming in every week.

 

We are lucky to have a good homing rate. The more we home the more we can save.

​​All photos and information are current and are updated as often as we are able [as of today's date 12th June 2025]

 

The dogs below are either resident at Barkinside Sanctuary, with fantastic fosters or desperately looking for a family to love them.

 

We try to help any dogs we can, no matter of age, health, condition, or size.

 

Some of them have been here for a short time and sadly some longer.

Some will stay with us at the sanctuary for good.

Some of them are small and some large.

But they all just want to be loved.

They all have big hearts and are waiting to share them with families, or with us here.

They each have their own profiles or they are being created.

Please take a look and give those that can find a home a chance.

All dogs at the sanctuary have full medical and blood tests, full passport with innoculations and are sterilised or nuetured

If you are interested in adopting or fostering one of our babies please contact me as I would hate to miss any comments.

Thank you

Barkinside rescues dogs from the local area and throughout Spain. I also assist other rescues that need my help. if requested and am able. The sanctuary will take on any dog, no matter age, health, or condition. They will be cared for and rehabilitated, found homes or can stay here in our care for the remainder of their lives. We help dogs in the kill stations of Spain to find freedom and safety. We have local fosters who assist me in giving the rescues, homes and stability. We save dogs where we can who are deemed beyond help, to old, to sick, to injured, to mentally scarred/scared.

We are not a boarding kennels. We are not a protectora so we cannot legally pick up local stray dogs. For this service you should phone one of the local dog rescue charities Alma 622708013 or Hondon Valley Animal Rescue 676558432. 

 

This website promotes those dogs in our care and gives regular updates on their progress and welfare. We also post photos and information on each dog and the daily life of the Rescue Centre and Sanctuary and the work we do here.

 

All of the work that goes on here is done by those with nothing but love in their hearts for the dogs and other rescues in residence.

Barkinside has a great support system within the dog rescue and local community without whom we could not carry on. 

PLEASE NOTE

 

Due to our already huge workload, the additional preparation and work required to support our new fundraising Car Boot Fairs has meant we've had to rearrange visiting times at Barkinside.

They are Tuesday to Friday from 10am to 2pm.

Strictly by appointment only.

 

On Saturday's we are now busy preparing for the boot fairs, and making some time for ourselves on Mondays gives us breathing space and time to unload the van, vets etc. 

 

Our working day averages 14 to 16 hours, with 36 dogs, horses, cats etc, so please be patient with us.

 

Up to date information on all Barkinside Events and Carboots, please click here or see below.

 

Our signal here in the mountains can be a bit iffy, so always best to WhatsApp message on 697122883 for contact or location information. You are always welcome to contact us anytime via the Barkinside Facebook Pages.

I will always help where I can, so please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.
