SPL Rescue Center Construction

We are very excited to share with you a milestone as we have secure ownership of the land for Stray Paws Rescue Center thanks to the support all of you have shown to our cause, we are deeply greatful. Now we are presented with the next challenge, fencing the property and construction of basic facilities to care for our rescues in one location, we are excited and understand that we need to go one step at a time.

Since the beging of the year 92 dogs and puppies have been adopted from Stray Paws Loreto . Many more have been spayed or neutered, and give them back to their owners whom lack resources to do so. As of today we have three adult dogs, and 18 puppies under the age of six months that we are working to find forever homes for.

During this first semester of the year we have developed partnership with the following organizations in order to help find forever homes for our rescues: Family dogs new life, Rompin paws dog rescue, dogs without Borders rescue, Pawsitively saved, priceless pets, casa dog and Amelia air.

We have many stories about our rescues and in this ocasion we would like to share Gracie's & Tug's: Gracie was dumped at local clinic two days after she was dumped, she gave birth to tug, one little puppy. We took them from there because they couldn’t care for them. We fostered, brought them back to health, and then sent them up to a rescue in Seattle where they will find their forever homes. Cokita was an abandoned dog that had seven puppies. We fostered Coquita and all of her puppies, and found homes for everyone

We are excited to share with you that as a result of our fundraising events over the last twelve months, we have raised 69 % of the money needed to close the deal on the land that will house the SPL Rescue Center. We expect to raise the remaining funds during the next six months. To achive this goal we have planned an exciting calendar of events:

During this year we have supported sterilization clinics every month, rescued and found forever homes for 87 dogs, with 28 more in the early stages of health checks, and necessary veterinary treatment before we can move on to finding them good homes. 

We would like to share with you a few of their stories.

Kitchi was abandoned on the outskirts of town. Quite sick and having been abused, we took her in and against all odds, and despite losing an eye, after months of medical treatment and chemotherapy, we found her a loving home here in Loreto and now she spends her mornings takings much deserved naps and sunbathing by a pool.

Loui was found terribly skinny, covered in ticks and had been hit by a car. We brought him home, nursed him back to health and he is now living his best life in Eugene Oregon.

Canela was owned by a homeless person with mental health issues when we rescued her at the height of the hot Loreto Summer. She was heavily pregnant, thirsty and tired of walking the hot streets for food. After a few failed attempts to talk to the owner to allow us to help her, we succeeded and finally gained his trust. He left her with us and she gave birth to 13 pups all of which were adopted by local families. Canela now lives in Portland as a member of a loving family.

We deeply appreciate your support to stray dogs one by one... until there are Non.
