Prepping for winter

Dog beds made by wood pallets and straws - an inexpensive way to create minimum comfort to shelter dogs.

Steps made to create a dog bed:

1. Wood pallet

2. OSB plate to cover the pallet. A stadard OSB plate can be used for 2-3 pallets.

3. Two lateral timber boards to prevent straws to fall out from the pallet

4. Lots of clean straws to keep the dogs warm in the winter time

For 500 dogs and 120 kennels ROLDA used:

240 wood pallets

120 OSB plats

3 mc timber 5m long

nails and

straws 1 -2  packs/kennels ( keep some extra straws in a dry place to replace the wet and dirty or refill kennels ' beds when needed).

Winter Emergency Appeal

To prepare the Adoption Center’ new kennels for freezing months, we were advised by professionals to use infrared heating lamps for kennels with puppies and for kennels with older, weaker dogs- at least. We aim to be able to purchase a heating lamp in each kennel.

A heating lamp costs approx. 38 GBP (see an example here from a UK website).We would need 15 pieces plus infrared bulbs, each costs 13,4 GBP (see an example here on the same UK website)
