Welcome to Axarquia Animal Rescue (AAR), a registered charity (No. 10567, Spain) and a non-profit organisation. Founded August 2011, we are a voluntary rescue and homing charity for abandoned and abused animals in the Axarquia region of Andalucia, Southern Spain.

We are also desperate for fosterers to care for our animals until we find their forever homes. There are now many different options if you want to foster for AAR. You can foster full time with all our usual AAR support until your foster animal is adopted OR you can now join us as a FOSTER BUDDY.
- Are you keen to foster but have regular commitments?
- Do you need to leave your weekends free?
- What to share fostering with someone?
Join our FOSTER BUDDY scheme where we build the foster arrangement around you and the needs of your foster animal. By becoming a FOSTER BUDDY you can make a real difference and enable us to help more animals in desperate need.
Please visit our Foster page, contact us, or call Diane +34 691 961 429 for more info.
If you are thinking of adopting, please read our guide giving some of the things to consider, and details of the steps involved.

All of the money we raise goes towards supporting the animals in our care. One of the major long-term expenses is looking after those animals who are unlikely to get a normal adoption. We call them our Permanent Fosters.
