MADRA is dedicated to finding new homes for unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned dogs. We actively search for permanent, quality homes for our dogs through advertisements in local newspapers, veterinary clinics, pet shops, and special events that provide exposure. The MADRA website and Facebook page provide current, up-to-date information about all of our dogs and our work.
We actively support, encourage and promote neutering of pet dogs as an ethical solution to the over-population and killing of dogs in Ireland. We also wish to improve the welfare of dogs through general education of the public and through education programmes for children.
MADRA's ultimate and overall aim is that all dogs have permanent, loving homes. We wish to help create a world where no healthy, good-natured dogs are killed merely because they are considered to be surplus to requirements.

"Peadar joined our other dog Reggie a month ago and they make the best team! Over the last month we have watched him chunk up, learn to sit/paw/lie down/fetch, get comfy on the couch and run circles around Reggie! It’s the most rewarding experience, to watch Peadar learn how to play, trust and love. Thank you Madra for another piece of our Jigsaw- we couldn’t ask for more."Jonathan Maher - Galway
"We got our lovely terrier from MADRA over 5 years ago and he has given great joy to our family. He had previously been abused before arriving at MADRA and we are delighted we got to take him home and into our lives, I don't know what the kids would do without him. "
