An update on little Friendly, who was rescued from the streets of San Miguel de Allende, a city us near us we serve here in Central Mexico. She'd been crawling on the street, a tiny puppy, after being bitten on the back. She had two hernias which were removed and while her temporary paralization is gone, her back legs were fractured and are not repairable. However, Friendly has acclimated and adapted and she can now walk about ten feet without loosing her balance..and today she mastered the big dogs' water pail!

We're so proud of her! Good job, Friendly!

Good morning, animal lovers. We have accepted a case today. It is an English sheepdog that was being kept in abyssmal conditions; abandoned and neglected. It's a girl, about 5 years old estimated.

Here is where to give.

Hello everyone. I'm afraid I had some communication issues but all is well now. I've missed two weekends of fundraising and we are really behind with a pile of bills, dog food to buy, and more. Let's get started and help us catch up. Right now a match up for 1000: we need to raise 900 more. And boy do we need it.
Some updates about what you missed last week:

●Rain! Well I'm glad it has arrived but it also turned parts of the sanctuary into a sticky bog. Fixing shelters and keeping animals dry as well as trying to get that mud off of us has been a major job recently. The storms are epic and boy are we glad to have solar instead of relying on the grid; but because it's overcast we have less energy stored. Everyone has done well and stayed dry in our concrete dog shelters: they were a wise idea.

●Surgeries! Bambi, one of our half paralyzed dogs, went in for surgery and had her dead eye removed; she has been depressed to not be around Benny, her half paralyzed best friend; but the surgery went well and they should be reunited in a week. And Peanut had dental surgery Saturday and comes back soon. So we have Peanut's bill to pay, too.

●We finished the rainwater catchment system off the main building but we don't have the cisterns to collect it in so I'll be asking folks to sponsor cisterns. The collected rainwater will go thru a sophisticated filtration system and is for our dogs, outdoor toilet, sink. We do not have a well out here ( out of our budget) and rainwater catchment is essential for our longevity. I'll price those this week and then get started working on it.

● Speaking of rain, our tiny team of helpers has been out here in the sun and rain for 15 months with no shelter. Last week we made a break area and boy are the guys glad to be dry and cool in this high desert environment. Every bit of shade we have otherwise has dogs and donkeys in it! We can turn this into a dog shelter when we no longer need it.

●Right now we are making an entrance to the main building and it has a ramp to make it easier to bring things inside-- as well as sick or disabled animals.

●Roads and access difficult last few days and I see us needing to buy more loads of gravel for two areas.

● The donkey barn is a ways off but we did finish their temporary shelter and they love it. Every day it rains at 5 or 6 pm, sometimes for 2 hours..and sometimes for 10 hours. Just in time!

Slow and steady makes the race. Little by little!

Let's do it. 900 to go. Remember, this is owned by an American Foundation who will run it as a animal sanctuary for perpetuity. Imagine how many animals will find peace and joy behind its gates.

Los perros que vienen aquí nunca han sido amados. Y quizás digas, bueno, ya lo sabía, pero quizá no sepas lo que significa. Significa que tienes que lograr que acepten el amor.

Jake. Ha cambiado por completo bajo nuestro cuidado. Es un amor y se siente seguro.

The dogs that come here have never been loved. And you might say, well I knew that, but you might not know what that means. It means you have to get them to accept love.

Jake. He has completely changed under our care. He is a lovebug and feels safe.

The sanctuary shares this toothless deaf fellow-- who we have named Mr. Beasley-- will be coming to live at the sanctuary in about a month. He is currently in foster care.
We get a lot of requests to aid dogs; we are full as far as dogs at this time except for special cases like Mr. Beasley. We are working on sanctuary infrastructure this year to be able to accept more species. Our goal is high quality care for multiple species-- and no overcrowded conditions. In tandem, what we can accept is based on the donations we receive.
If you find a dog or puppy we suggest you take it in yourself or take it to the vet and provide its healthcare. Rescuers are overburdened in our region.

We're glad Mr Beasley has this chance.
