Quinta dos Rafeiros - Dog Café

27/01/2026

Our foster dog Lilo made so much progress. She is still a shy baby, but loves to cuddle and play. The best dog you can ask for. But now is time to help other dogs in need, and we can do that only by getting her adopted first because of our limited space.
We want to find a good family in the Azores or outside, with preferably another dog, as she loves company, and a fenced garden.
Lilo is an easygoing 2 year-old female, great with other dogs, and shy at first with people but very gentle. She already has vaccines, microchip, she is also neutered.
Help us find her a good home 💫

We are happy to host the Portuguese Language Café after 3 years of absence. 🥳

Rumors are true: the Portuguese Language Café is BACK after 3 years without meetings! 🥳

Did you miss us? 😉
Come join us for the reopening at a new location: Quinta dos Rafeiros, in Lagoa (see exact location on the page).

For the newcomers, at PLC you will not only learn Portuguese but mostly meet new people and chat about life on the island. This is a great way to socialize and learn useful words and expressions in the local language. It is open to ALL LEVELS and the entrance is 100% FREE.

Now for the new stuff.✨ On the spot, you will be able to purchase vegan pastries and cakes, if you are a sweet tooth. 🧁🍰 Drinks will not be available yet so bring your own. Also new, this is a dog-friendly space. Dogs are welcome in our dog park under the surveillance of their owners. 🐶

Please note: This is a weather-dependent event occurring outdoors. We will communicate if rescheduled 24 hours in advance. 🌧

Note that down on your agenda!

🇬🇧 | Jolly, our new rescue, is a 3-year-old mama pinscher mix. 🐶

She is available for adoption next week, after her recovery from the neuter operation. She is such an easy pup: calm, likes people and other dogs, clean and cuddly, we sometimes forget that she is in the house! 😄

So, who will be the lucky one to give her the best life ever? 👋

🇵🇹 | Jolly, a nossa nova resgatada, é uma mamã traçada pinscher de 3 anos. 🐶

Ela está disponível para adoção na próxima semana, após sua recuperação da operação de castração. Ela é uma cadela tão fácil: calma, gosta de pessoas e outros cães, limpinha e fofinha, às vezes esquecemos que ela está em casa! 😄

Então, quem será o sortudo que irá dá-la uma vida melhor?👋
