K9 Refugio

K9 Refugio (officially known as Refugio de Animales K9 Tenerife) is a volunteer-run, non-profit animal sanctuary in the south of Tenerife.


Established in 1993, the shelter relies entirely on donations and volunteers to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome abandoned dogs and cats.

I volunteered walking their dogs between 2010 and 2019. K9 Refugio were my first inspiration to consider making dog rescue and rehabilitation a regular part of my life.


If you are visiting Tenerife or live locally, the shelter welcomes visitors and relies heavily on volunteers to help socialize the animals.


Visiting Hours:

Every day of the year from 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM.

You can drop by to walk a dog, cuddle a cat, or simply spend time providing affection to the animals.


Location:

Calle Chimbesque, s/n, 38628 Las Zocas, San Miguel de Abona (near Las Chafiras).
