Adopt a Mexi-Mutt Original   
Many people want to adopt an animal from Mexico
because they have seen the tragic conditions under  
which they live and want to provide a loving home.     
See our HOMES NEEDED page.                                  

Rescue and Adoption
Hundreds of animals,  
many of them ill from mange,
starvation or injury,
roam the streets of Guanajuato.
When we rescue and animal,
it is given a bath, treated for
parasites, and spayed or neutered,
and put up for adoption.
If the dog has mange the
treatment is more lengthy and
costly.  You can help us treat and
save more of these animals.
MEX-CAN PET PARTNERS

Crossing borders to help Mexico's companion animals
 
In-Clinic Spay/Neuter
are offered to people
without means
to have their pets sterilized.  
Mex-Can provides funds
so that  participating
veterinarians can provide
this service at a low cost
in their clinics.
This is a year-round program.
Education and Advocacy
is carried out before and during each
sterilization campaign.  
Children receive colouring books
that promote humane treatment
of animals.  During the campaign a
health nurse will describe the benefits
of sterilizing your pets and the proper
care of their pet.  
President of Amigos, Sandra Ward,
was recently nominated to a special
health committee on health
to the City of Guanajuato.  
Sterilization Campaigns
are held 3 to 4 times per year
in  poor areas outside of the city.
These communities are recommended
to us by the director of the
Center of Health.  
Equipment is set up in school rooms,
the vets and volunteers come
and people show up with their pets.  
As many as 85 animals have been
sterilized in one day.
