OUR MISSION
… teach the children to respect and care
for animals, promote disease prevention through community education and
reduce the dog population through an aggressive spay and neuter
program.
So much help is needed.
If you have ever been to Mexico, you know. If you
haven’t please understand there are many dogs needing help. We have
talked to many experts and they believe as we do; start with the basics
and build from there.
With this in mind, we started with education and have
created a course to teach Respect for Animals to the students of La
Paz. It is crucial to stop the circle of neglect that has formed over
many, many years due to lack of knowledge.
Animals have been disregarded, neglected and abused.
Many homeless dogs survive on bits of garbage, riddled with parasites,
fleas and mange. They are often nursing horrific injuries due to abuse
or unattended wounds from accidents or fights.
In many cases the owners cannot afford to feed their
pets or seek medical attention, let alone spay or neuter them.
What does not cost anything is knowledge and respect.
If we can change the mindset of the younger children and
get them comfortable with the idea of spay and neuter, then slowly, we
can help these defenseless animals.

In the first 3 months
of operation, we aided
in over 900 free sterilizations.

Like so
many of the dogs we see, Princessa was severely infested with ticks
when she arrived. She was cleaned up, treated and adopted.
