Animalandia contacted by police about puppy mill
Animalandia in Loreto rescued 20 dogs yesterday and now needs to provide food and care for them with their limited resources. Please consider a
donation to their GoFundMe website. All donations will go directly to Animalandia.
Here is a description from one of the clinic founders about what they encountered: " Animalandia was contacted by the local police this late this
afternoon about a possible puppy mill. What we found was 16 adult dogs in unimaginable filth, starving and some already dead. We have rescued 4
Purebred Border Collies and 12 Purebred Jack Russell's. They are now in kennels at the clinic."

A while back, I noticed dozens of dogs, all types, for sale
in the Ensenada newspaper, seems to be a cottage industry
of breeding. Saw Golden Retrivers for sale outside a Calimax,
the seller appered to hide from the Police

If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

The Loreto spirit is alive and well
It is amazing to me how the people of Loreto come together to help in a time of need or crisis. Local people donated generously of their time and
money to help the clinic. By the end of the day and in less than 24 hours, 8 of the dogs had either been adopted or fostered. Of course, there is
still plenty of needs to be met for the ongoing feeding and care, medical supplies for the dogs and work on finding them forever homes.
Without Animalandia, I hate to think what Loreto would look like today. When we first came to Loreto 8 years ago, the street dog problem was really
bad. Today, there a far fewer stray dogs and far more dogs who found forever homes. We have one of them. Please consider a donation, even if it is
only $10 to make sure that this wonderful organization is able to continue its valuable work. Here is the link for their GoFundMe site:

Great effort, hats off to these people.
Somebody have a contact number to Animalandia? I want to contribute and get in touch with them, have some things i want to share with them.
Just came back from a trip to Cedros Island, where they have a serious problem with feral cats and dogs, and just like a textbook case, on the way in
somebody brought a puppy in a transport cage to the plane, it was a gift for his daughters birthday; and three days later while waiting for the plane
back to GN, another cage with another dog flew in from ensenada.

I received an email with the news that the gringo "owner" of the puppy mill was arrested by immigration officials and driven to Cabo San Lucas for
deportation. He had an additional three dogs with him at the time of his arrest.

I have posted an update on the situation with the rescued dogs on GoFundMe, but here is the latest news:
Further update on the situation with the 20 dogs that were rescued. One of the owners is in the process of being deported due to this animal cruelty.
The other is still trying to get the dogs back and has actually been successful by approaching the foster homes and posing as someone who wants to
adopt the dog. We need to get these dogs in permanent homes as soon as possible.
