In honor of ASPCA National Adoption Weekend, please support the cause by making a donation, volunteering at adoption events or shelters, foster or adopt a pet. Supplies are also needed and you can donate crates and kennels, blankets, towels, newspaper, cat litter, quality grain free food, chew-bones, treats and toys. Cash donations accepted at most rescues and shelters.

I accept donations as well. I work directly with homeless people and their dogs. I provide free services for first aid, nail trimming, ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, anal gland expression, grooming and training. I provide collars (paw marks martingale collars that are both chain and nylon) and leashes for each dog. I provide each dog with a long term natural chew bone (femur, knuckle, bully stick, antler, hoof, smoked ears). I provide quality grain-free kibble or canned foods with larger bags of kibble broken down to gallon zip loc bags for easy carrying in a back-pack which are replenished as needed. Back-packs are also welcomed. Bottled water is welcomed. Small tents are welcomed.

I also provide transportation to the local animal control for spaying & neutering, microchips, vaccines and heart worm + flea preventatives. I accept donated heartworm and flea preventatives for every size dog. As well, I return to dogs every three days for bandage changes, daily for training services, and frequently to replenish supplies. Gasoline cards are welcomed too.

My current largest needs are for:
1) every size Paw Marks martingale collar (nylon + chain are important for training and protecting trachea)
2) 4’ leashes
3) natural chew bones
4) flea prevention
5) ear cleaner/ Q-tips
6) bandaging material:
-vet wrap self-adhering bandage
-calendula GEL from CVS or amazon
-cotton bandage roll
-gauze bandage roll
-Neosporin minus pain additive

Thank you for caring for animals in need and without homes or owners of their own. Millions of animals from boarder to boarder are desperate for help. Puerto Rico has higher needs with streets inundated with stray and sickly dogs. There are not enough resources being provided to these Puerto Rican dogs.

Help where you can. Adopt your next dog vs buying from a breeder. Never buy a dog or cat from a pet store. Pet stores get their live-stock from mill-style breeders. Animals are neglected and treated cruelly. The only way this stops is to cease creating a market for their puppies and kittens. Encourage adoption vs purchasing animals until we see a dent in the over-population of shelter/ rescue/ stray animals. Spay and neuter your pets to prevent unintended births.
