From the information I am deriving via massive amounts of research from leading holistic vets, there will be enormous growth and change in the Veterinary industry in North America regarding vaccination/spay and neuter protocols in the next few years. NOTHING beats a strong immune system!

It is deworming time at The Lucky Paws Inn, and as you can well imagine, it is crucial to regularly deworm our cats and dogs here in Mexico. Especially those we are rescuing off of the streets.

This month we have 30 dogs who require a Nexguard Spectra Tablet asap as someone brought a contaminated dog to the shelter... even though we were told she was properly quarantined and dewormed, it was apparent that she wasn't just days after her arrival.

Since then, juggling a deworming schedule has been a constant battle to help rid the pack of this very unhealthy parasite invasion. So, as soon as possible, we need to deworm the entire pack of 30 rescue pups -simultaneously- to eliminate this extremely discouraging, dangerous and nasty parasite.

We are asking for YOUR help with our Autumn deworming regimen. I am doing my best to eliminate suffering for these animals and to keep the streets of Ixtapa and Zihua from getting overridden with dogs roaming the streets in unsavoury conditions however, I really cannot do it alone.

I literally only have 2 monthly sponsors to assist me at the moment Brenda Bushfield and Shaun Miller' whom, without their help I would not be keeping these dogs fed. As much as the donations they give help, it isn't enough and I need so much more assistance than that to keep this rescue going.

If you can find it in your heart to help me with these beautiful sweet rescue pups... please give what you can.

To make it easy, we have created a DonorBox Campaign where you can quickly and easily donate as much or as little as you can to help us keep these pups healthy. We need 11 - 3 packs in total of Nexguard Spectra for various-sized dogs and our goal is to reach $11,000 MXP / $550 USD / $750 CDN as soon as we possibly can so we can do a bulk order from our Veterinarian Eduardo Roman.

Sad day at the rescue for Canella. She was diagnosed with Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumor, CTVT for short... AKA Stickers Sarcoma, the oldest form of Cancer on the planet and highly contagious in dogs.

Her first Chemotherapy Treatment is complete, and the vet says we may have 2 more treatments to go. Prayers and good vibes are needed our way! 🙏🏼

Rescuing dogs isn't easy, they always seem to come with problems and it can be stressful at times but I am doing what I can for these little babies.

Sometimes it's the simple.things in life can that make the biggest difference! Thanks to the Ferriteria in San Jose who greatly discounted our much needed wheelbarrow and spade for rhe rescue!
Wiener dog approved!

We really need a whipper snipper now... a great way to help out the shelter would be to.donate a nice strong electric whipper snipper for the dogs yard area. It is out of control!

Meet Leonel, the little Dachshund Wiener Dog with a big personality! Leonel is a lovable sweet pup who was called for us to retrieve from Cocoyual after he and his 3 siblings were left completely covered in parasites in a box by the side of the road!

A big shout out to my friend Jessica Valeria Cruz Islas for making the call to us and helping us rescue and rehome these little beauties! 2 of his siblings are now living the good life in Western Canada and we still have little Leonal and his sweet sister Suey here at the shelter.

If you have ever considered sponsoring a shelter dog to live a better life and keep well fed, now is the time, little Leonel doesn't cost much to feed and if a few people pitch in only $5 a month on our subscription-based donor box platform, it WILL make a big difference in not just Leonel's life, but also the lives of his over 35 litter mates at the shelter.

Thank you to the people who have already helped us keep the shelter going! We can all do our part to help neglected and abused street dogs here in Mexico! Help me to help you to help them and donate today if you can! The Donor Box Link is in the comments below! 😘subscription-based
