Who we are ...Amigos de los Animales, Inc., Horse Rescue:ADLA works with Caribbean Equine Horse Sanctuary (CEHS) who have agreed to take in rescued horses from ADLA. |
ADLA helps fine arts photographer Traer Scott get portraits for her upcoming book Street Dogs: Fine arts photographer Traer Scott's book Street Dogs is due to hit bookstore shelves early this Fall. ADLA was fortunate to be able to assist Traer in getting portraits and field shots for her remarkably beautiful second book. Many of ADLA's rescued/rehabilitated dogs will be featured in Street Dogs along with a bio about them and the pet-partnership shelter that put them up for adoption. Proceeds from Traer's book will benefit both Puerto Rico and Mexico where the book was photographed. World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) has agreed to receive a percentage of donated proceeds from the book. WSPA is currently working with both Puerto Rico and Mexico rescue groups. Be sure and look to see if one of your adopted satos made the cut! |
Our dogs love to sleep on Kuranda Dog beds, but we don't have enough for everyone. If you would like to donate a bed at a special wholesale price for a another dog to sleep in comfort, please click here. Tourist Resources:Amigos de los Animales often works with tourists interested in taking stray animals home. We go the extra mile to help tourists who want to help our satos. What We DoAmigos de los Animales would like to see a humane Puerto Rico, and will continue to work toward that goal. Amigos de los Animales is not limited in its scope on how it will work toward that goal either. We will continue to be involved in meeting with government.
