Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem

Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem takes in the stray animals of Gorinchem and its surroundings, in the province of South Holland, the Netherlands. Most arrivals are dogs and cats, along with rodents and birds that can no longer stay with their owners.

Found animals are brought in by the animal ambulance or by members of the public; they receive veterinary attention and a quiet place to recover. Alongside sheltering, the centre offers dog boarding, with short or long stays for pets whose owners are travelling.

The shelter opens every day, morning and afternoon, for visits and adoptions. Staff introduce each animal, explain its character and support families interested in giving a new home to a dog, a cat or another small companion.
