.:: ABRA - Associação Bracarense Amigos Dos Animais ::.

        If you are in Portugal, the adoption process is very simple. You only need to gather the minimum conditions of comfort, hygiene and quality of life required by ABRA.

         Go to Braga’s municipal Dog Pound and choose an animal (cat or dog) that suites you better. You will have to fill a token (remember to bring ID) with your personal data, address and contact number so that we can call you back to see how the animal is doing and also for statistics.

         This token lists the terms for adoption and will have to be signed by both ABRA and new owner. You will keep a copy of the original document. Finally, you will be asked to take a picture holding your new pet, for our photo album.

         If you do not live in Braga or if you are unable to go to the Dog Pound, contact us. The possibility of transport is studied case by case.

          We are now studying the formalities required to send dogs and cats outside Portugal such as: Flights; Health requirements; Quarantine; etc.
We shall have that available shortly.
