About Rasher

Rasher was a six year old border collie/labrador cross. He was born in Dingle, Co Kerry, Ireland and did not have a great start in life as he was passed around a number of people before he settled with us. Rasher has visited seven countries in his short life and moved here with us in 2007. Anywhere we went, he went and he was a familiar face around Santa Maria, travelling, perfectly poised, on the back of our quad bike. He was friendly to everyone with a disconcerting habit of pushing his head between people's knees in order to get his neck and back tickled. He was part of the SOS Tartarugas team and frequently accompanied us to the hatchery at the Riu Hotel where he became known amongst the guests there. Rasher was our family and did not deserve to die in such a cruel, agonising and pointless way.
