Lucky Dogs

On Tuesday, Bill and Teaberry and I headed north to Petco. On our way through the parking lot at Costco, we spotted a white dog with a collar wandering. We watched and he looked frantic like lost dogs do. He headed toward Petco at the same time we did. The dog was emaciated and looked like he had been on his own for a while. 

By the time I reached the front door of the store, a lovely Mexican woman was holding him by the collar. A brindle-colored dog was next to the white dog. Luckily, the dog with the collar had a tag with phone numbers. I wish I had gotten this woman’s name but we were both trying to coral the dogs. Petco let us stand inside with both dogs. I went to buy a leash and she called the owner. The dog was far from home and had been missing for quite a while. The owner said she would come as fast as she could.  I couldn’t stay, I had to go to work, but I called some rescue groups. Such a sweet dog. The woman who caught both said she would take the brindle dog home with her and I gave her Wet Noses’ number to call and see what could be done. I called Kristi Lahr, owner of Wet Noses Rescue and she said she would help. I gave the woman Kristi’s contact info. This woman is truly an animal angel and took the time to help. I wish more people were like her. I wish more shelters had room. 

If you see a dog or cat in distress, try and help in any way you can. It may save a life or even two.

PLEASE REMEMBER our online auction starts Sunday the 5th. The online auction helps us spay/neuter more dogs and cats and so fewer dogs and cats will be like the ones at Petco. 32auctions.com/peaceanimals2023

El Palmar Del Progreso

 
La clínica PEACEAnimals de esta semana en El Palmar Del Progreso se llevó a cabo en el Salón Vallarta. Salón Vallarta es un lugar para bodas, conciertos y otros grandes eventos. Con capacidad para albergar a unas mil personas, es un lugar perfecto para clínicas de animales con mucho espacio abierto y todas las instalaciones que necesitan los veterinarios y las mascotas. Los propietarios, Alma Padilla y Carlos Mendoza son los anfitriones más amables y estuvieron allí todos los días ayudando con todos los aspectos de la clínica. Este es un lugar frecuente para las clínicas de animales de PEACE y los lugareños anticipan nuestra llegada aproximadamente 2 veces al año. También dimos la bienvenida a los voluntarios Gaby, Gustavo, Louise y Danielle que regresaron, así como a muchos dueños de mascotas que se quedaron para ayudar mientras sus animales estaban siendo tratados. Tuvimos una semana exitosa y esperamos volver a Palmar Del Progreso nuevamente.

You found a dog in need, Now what?

  1. Protect the dog. Find a leash, a rope, a cord; anything. Get the dog out of harm's way and keep the dog in one place.
  2. If injured or sick, transport or find a way to get the dog to a vet immediately. There is a 24-hour vet in Puerto Vallarta if it’s a night or weekend. Many vets in this area will allow you to open accounts. Vet care in Mexico is also much cheaper than in many countries. You can post later on social media asking for donations to help with vet costs if necessary. Worry about the dog first, money later.
  3. Does the dog have an ID tag? Contact the number. Many do not have tags or collars. If it has a collar, note what it looks like.
  4. Post pictures of the dog, a full description, and the location. Many people are willing to help dogs here and there are independent rescuers. A dog can’t be helped without the location and pictures. Posting without this information does nothing to help and people do not have time to go searching for dogs who may be on the move. Also, post where the dog is protected or a number someone can contact with questions.
  5. If the dog appears relatively healthy and is hanging around, provide water and food. If you see ticks or fleas, consider giving a Simparica or Bravecto, available from any vet.
To report animal abuse or rescue needed in Puerto Vallarta, please call 911 AND request the GREEN PATROL (PATRULLA VERDE), or call the City Shelter at (322) 293-3690.

There is also a reporting system for mistreatment, abuse, and neglect for All animals in the municipality of the Bay of Banderas.
