Help Stray Dogs in Punta Rubia!
Donation protected
In 2006 I visited Punta Rubia, La Pedrera (Rocha) in Uruguay for the very first time. Aside from its gorgeous beaches and the beautiful people I met, I instantly fell in love with its four-legged inhabitants, who immediately touched my heart.
Since then, I have come and gone to Uruguay many times. I now have adopted seven dogs (five of them strays), and have found a home for many, many more; but have also felt the heartbreak of not being able to help so many of them, who still roam around the streets, beaches and highways, some meeting an unfortunate end.
The local government cannot afford to help with the set up of a well-run shelter (we asked) for all the strays that are left behind, especially after the summer ends. It is up to us, the citizens who love these wonderful souls, to start from scratch, buy a piece of land where the shelter can be set up; buy medicine and food; pay a vet to assist injured dogs, spade and neuter them, and eventually help them find a loving home.
With this in mind, I have created a fund and ask you to donate anything from $1.00 and up to help me assist our four-legged friends in finding a forever home.
Your help means the world to me; but most importantly, together we help change the life of these four-legged beings just looking for love, shelter, food and a home they can call their own. Thank you, thank you for all of your help.
