OUR MISSION STATEMENT

LOS PERROS PERDIDOS Foundation partners with PAWS IN ACTION CANCUN.

We are determined to save as many of the neglected dogs, both wandering the streets or chained and abandoned, as we can. We can’t save them all so we take comfort in our successes:

Getting dogs off the streets in Mexico . . . 4 paws at a time.

Many of the people in Mexico don’t see the street dogs, but slowly that is changing, through increased awareness and education propagated by the various independent rescues working throughout Mexico.

Raising awareness of the importance of spaying and neutering our furry friends and through the love and support of our wonderful volunteers, donors and adopters, our hope is to rescue, heal and successfully rehome as many of these deserving souls as possible.

With your help, we can do this!

Thank you so much to Toree and Karin and all the volunteers! Kira is absolutely wonderful and the perfect addition to our family. Her new sister Avi adores her and I can’t imagine our lives without her!

Helen, Cancún México

I helped bring back a group of dogs in 2024 from Cancun to Lake Tahoe and it was SO MUCH FUN! I stayed at Toree’s house at Tahoe, helped with the dogs and was also able to explore the area, which was so beautiful. Truly an amazing experience.
