TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.   Residents of Sorá, Altos de María and neighboring areas got together to coordinate and sponsor a sterilization blitz.  103 dogs and 9 cats  were sterilized, dewormed, vaccinated against rabies, ears cleaned, dusted with flea & tick powder and given an injection of vitamins on Sunday, January 28, 2007.
 
 
 Special thanks to Empresas Melo for the ivermectin, vitamins and rabies vaccines; Barbara Franzen for her donation and delicious fruit plate and sandwiches; Ed McAleer for transporting the operating tables and surgical lamps, letting us stay at his spectacular house and for the great barbecue; Maria Esther from the association Porque Me Importan for assisting in all phases; and a very special thanks to Dusty and Mary Rhodes for sponsoring the bulk of the sterilizations and transporting the boxes of medical supplies; Mary was the driving force that made the blitz a reality. Many thanks to those that provided the water and sodas and to all our caring "taxis".

 
                       

                         
What a great satisfaction we were able to improve the lives of 112  pets and their guardians.
