Thank you!

We're back from Peru and proud to report that we've had the most successful clinic to date.

Peru by the numbers..

108, sterilizations performed.
2, the number of anesthesia machines we were finally able to get and use.
10, the number dogs neutered through non-surgerical Zeuterin
640, number of clinic hours logged by our volunteer team while in Huanchaco
3, the number of Peruvian animal groups working with us: Amigo Fiel, Huanchaco El Rescate, and ARCA
16, the total number of our volunteer team that went to Peru
3, the numbers of vet students from Montreal who added our clinic to their travel itinerary
1, the number of days of rest given to the team. The first time we've ever been able to do that!
1, the number of Global Giving staff that was able to do an onsite visit to this year's clinic.
1, the number of PeaceCorps volunteer that used their weekend to volunteer with us.
49, the number of first-time donors to the Perros Project in the month of June .

And now some firsts...

The first time we were able to perform surgeries with gas anesthesia.
The first time we were able to offer the whole clinic in Huanchaco.
The first time we were able to give the team a day-off and still do over 100 surgeries.
The first time we were able to receive a letter of endorsement from the local municipality.
The first time we were able to work with more than one community partner.

There's so much more to tell but for now we'll share some photos that help tell the results. Chances that we will do this again, and aim to do it even better in 2017... 100%.

As always, if you ever have any questions about the project, our work, or other ways to help - please feel free to reach out to us at perrosproject@gmail.com.

Thank you again for all your support this past year.

In gratitude,

Matt & Courtney

PS, do expect some fun news from us in the coming year with some new aspects of our project. :)
