Welcome to  Cape Verde Dog Rescue
Supporting the dogs and people of Praia
The Clinic
The Bons Amigos Clinic, in Ponta d'Agua in Praia, is open for emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  The team is headed by the very dedicated Donna Cesaltina and Madueno who are supported by a team of helpers and volunteers.  Donna Cesaltina and Madueno have recently undergone training with European Vets, organised and funded by Bons Amigos.  The clinic is now able to carry out procedures such as castrations (male dogs only) and amputations, along with many other routine medical and surgical procedures needed on a regular basis.

The work they do is invaluable and is essential if Bons Amigos are to continue their quest, and improve the lives of so many dogs and people living in Praia.
A new patient, Porci, arrives at the clinic.
The road to recovery... 3 weeks on.
After 10 weeks, an amazing transformation!
Porci is just one of countless cases seen at the clinic every year, and his story gives a real insight to the value of the work carried out at Bons Amigos.
