Associação os Patudos-Canil Municipal de Condeixa

I hope that this testimony serves to call for the urgent adoption of the animals that are in the care of this association. The big dog I adopted came to me traumatized and scared, completely unaware of what can be a human touch of care. Several untreated wounds all over the body, marks of abuse caused by humans and other animals. He hadn't been bathed in months, and it was impossible to run a hand through his hair, so many were the tracks and painful tangles. The microchip was placed under the muscle, which created a 10 cm hematoma, with immense volume, something that no one from the association noticed because when I mentioned it they were surprised. It's impossible. All bones in sight, in a state of extreme thinness. My big dog has no lack of appetite, he lacked food. The vaccine bulletin had no health certificate and only had the vaccine against canine rabies: it was therefore subject to parvovirus, leishmaniasis, and so many other diseases for which we are still testing. No internal or external deparatization. You are 10 kg below your ideal weight. The company that made the transport, indicated by Olga, treated him in the worst possible way. It's called Central Messenger: it arrived full of feces and urine. The driver lightly commented that he had not been drinking water for several hours and that he had not even left the stall to do the necessities. The vehicle had no minimum conditions for carrying out animal transport. The box did not respect the dimensions of the animal, had scraps of paper underneath and had the worst possible smell. It costs me to see projects like bemyfriendpt that mask the harsh reality that the animals photographed are really experiencing and that so much attention is given to facebook and photographs of the adoptions that deserve so much comment and that the violence with which these animals are hiding to be treated. I had already adopted another bigeye to another association, Patas Errantes in Sintra, and I hope that it will serve as an example for Pa'tudos: even with few resources it is possible to treat animals humanely. Patas Errantes makes a brilliant accompaniment to each animal, knowing him in every way, giving him the vaccines, treating him with the greatest love in the world: preparing him for adoption helping him to relate to humans and handpicks the adopter: I had to go through a long interview process until I got to know the bigeye - my interaction with him was observed and I was given all available information about him. At Pa'tudos, when I showed interest in adopting, the responsible person didn't even ask me questions. I had to insist on explaining my context, my intentions ... He even said "yes yes, it will say that it is great with dogs, isn't it?". He did not ask me if I could afford it, if I knew everything about caring for an animal, nothing about me, about my house, about my routine, about my financial availability to promote and ensure the health and well-being of a animal. There, anyone can adopt. I had never seen a more badly treated animal in my life, how come the guardian didn't know this? He was mistreated, enjoyed, raped. I see with astonishment the news that this association shares on facebook against mistreated animals when the responsible person does exactly the same thing! Being a pro-animal association is more than taking pictures, it is more than appearing on TVI. After the arrival of my bigeye, I was tormented to send photographs to publish: they didn't want to know about progress, about arrival, nothing. Officer Olga Ruth simply wrote "adoption photos". I call on you to study animal rescue and care strategies, to educate yourself about what it really means to protect animals. My bigeyes have at the bottom everything they deserve and more. And every day I feel that I can do better, give them more treats, I fly from work to go running to the park until the sun goes down. It is not enough to show images of rescues when they commit crimes of mistreatment against the animals in your care. It is not too late to change the direction of your project and do better.

I adopted a cat for this entity and in the publication mentioned that they offered sterilization and the chip. I know I have been waiting for almost a year, without exaggeration, and Mrs. Olga either does not answer or responds without responding to anything. I even asked for the contact of the center that does these treatments and nothing. This mrs. has rejected me calls, I think it has even blocked me. When giving the animal is quick, then to keep promises, does not exist .. update: like those responsible for the patudos or the responsible Mrs. Olga, asked and thought it fair that I update my criticism, since it knows that it was resolved, I will now explain HOW it was resolved. For now, this official used the golden card of the excuse "Pandemia". Yes, sorry because I have been trying to resolve this issue long before the pandemic with many attempts to ignore calls and never return. How did I successfully resolve my cat's sterilization? I demanded the number of the clinic / responsible for Mrs. Olga so I could schedule and take care of everything myself. and they scheduled me for not too little, a week or two later! I was amazed, and with Mrs. Olga I had been waiting for months! (Long before pandemics). Then, in conversation with the clinic staff, I learned that since Mrs. Olga takes many animals every time she goes there (as it is far away, in a new poiar village) it is difficult for the clinic to have the availability it had for me, for mrs. olga. So far the facts are well explained. The only problem here, was the horrible lack of organization of this Mrs. Olga and the contempt for the people from the point that delivers the animal. Yes, because no matter how busy you are saving animals, nothing explains why you can't answer a call for 5 mins in 3 months or give due treatment / attention to the case of someone who wants to give a home to a bigeye animal. Here's your critical update. A good day and good luck, but more for the bigeye animals and the clinic ladies who were nice to me and my kitten, greetings.

I brought two beautiful girls so I'm more than satisfied.

If it didn't happen to me, I wouldn't believe it. I want to adopt a dog, and they won't answer my phone! Poor animals that depend on those who are not interested in them!
