    REVISED ADOPTION PROCEDURES.

    Live Arico´s policy is to ask now for a minimum donation of €50 for an adopted male dog, and €75 for a female,  which is paid direct to Hospivet Sur on collection of your new pet, who will as a result be chipped, neutered, vaccinated and wormed.

    LIVE ARICO NEED BUILDING MATERIALS AND VOLUNTEERS!!!

    Much work has been done at the new refuge, yet more remains. We desperately need some metal poles, at least 2.5 metres in length by at least 40 cm in diameter. Also needed is 250 breeze blocks. CAN YOU HELP!!!!

    We also need pairs of hands!!

    If you can help with either, please call Chris, who is co-ordinating the building work, on 672 917193.

    Thank you in advance.

    THE PURCHASE OF LAND FOR A SOUTH TENERIFE RESCUE CENTRE

    We have sold 504 square metres of land up to now, making a total of €2520.00, and our 2010 calendar sales made  €2999. €1000 of this has been used to buy construction materials at the new refuge.  The total in the land account is therefore €4519, we´re getting there!!

    The plan to buy our own plot of land remains, possibly even the land we are now renting.

    Could you, BUY A SQUARE METRE OF LAND FOR Live Arico? At just €5 per square metre, you will receive a certificate from Live Arico for now, and your name and number of square metres purchased will be on a “Roll of Honour” in the welcome centre at the new refuge.

    Live Arico Shop News (in Association with Tenerife Nursing and Care)

    WE HAVE MOVED to the frontline of Coral Mar, on ground level, right next door to the Coral Bar. We believe this will make life far easier as cars unloading can park right outside, and also our elderly and disabled customers will no longer have to negotiate the stairs.

     

    We now have a fantastic range of handmade cards made by the fair hands of our Denice…

    beautifully decorated cards for all occasions from €2
    We are also grateful to accept items of furniture as we are now working in conjunction with Fish for Furniture, Los Abrigos and Idea, Adeje. Call Rick to arrange pick up.
     Due to popular demand the shop now has new opening times..

    Mon - Fri 10 - 4pm, Sat 10-2.
