Our latest adoptions..... update
31 July 2025
Dylan has found his "golden basket".... he's been with us for two
years now and we are so very thrilled that he's been adopted.
The last two of the three Chihauhau X puppies (Dolly and David)
have been adopted. These pups are so incredibly cute! They've
been adopted into the same family but will live in different homes.

Our latest adoptions..... update
23 July 2025
The three Chihauhau X puppies have grown so much! They've
gained strength and are bounding around like crazy pups!
They've had the all-clear from the Vet and are fully vaccinated
and chipped.
Daphne (now called Kika) has been adopted and we're
keen to find homes for Dolly and David. Please contact us if
you'd like to offer one of these gorgeous pups a home.
ADOPTED
Everyone at the Haven is always thrilled when an "oldie" is adopted..... when the news hits, there's glee and joy around for a long time. It's hard on Treve and Sharron because they have to say farewell to part of the family! However, the happiness associated with a dog finding his/her "furever" home is their over-riding emotion..... their own golden basket is always the best outcome. Dylan, Merry, Lexy and Lacie have all been waiting a while.
PAWS Charity Shop..... we need volunteers!
If you'd like to contribute a few hours, working in a Charity Shop with a great team of people who feel strongly about giving their time to help our dog rescue centre, Cacela Dog Haven, we may have just the volunteer job for you!
Our shop is based in Cabanas de Tavira, in a quiet residential area. The shop is lovely..... and the tasks are well-defined. There is an excellent on-boarding programme to help volunteers feel welcome, included and comfortable. Tasks are tailored to accommodate a volunteer's strengths and preferences.
Please note that we have a Volunteer Application form online, on this website. Click here to complete the form.... someone from the PAWS team will contact you!
If you'd like to pop into the shop just to take a peek and chat to whoever is on duty, please use the QR code for a map. It's truly worth a visit!
Address: Rua das Areias 6, 8800-593 Cabanas de Tavira.
Featuring our dogs waiting for their "furever" homes........
It's always with a heavy heart that we continue to see our adult dogs at CDH..... especially those who've been with us for a while. Although we're doing what we can to socialise and train our residents, taking them for walks and giving them free time in their garden, there's no substitute for a golden basket with a family that loves them. We've included the puppies that we have available for rehoming in this gallery below. Please go to our "Doggies.... Waiting" page to see their stories.
Volunteering, Fostering and Dog Walking....
From time to time, CDH is in need of supporters who are able to foster a dog, usually not for more than a week or two. Whilst some families may not be able to offer a full time home to any of our rescues, it may transpire that they'd enjoy looking after a pooch for a while. CDH will cover the related costs - food, veterinary services, etc.
We are always looking for and welcoming volunteers. The chores are not back-breaking and volunteers are encouraged to spend time socialising our rescues which is always fun for those who love animals.... our dogs are quite used to joining volunteers at a local café for a cup of coffee! At the haven, the kettle is always ready for a drink and the biscuits are great!
We also have a dog walking group.... if you'd like to join, you'd be most welcome.
If you're keen to volunteer, foster or join our walking group, please click here to go to our "Contact Us" page and send your details to Sharron.
