As of today I have taken in 12 female dogs, 6 female cats and 2 male dogs. Today was Cat day with Valerie doing the pick-up late in the day as cats take so long in recovery. Friday is Big Boy dogs with David Strand doing the driving both ways with his pick-up truck. Thank you Valerie and David! My hope is to do another 20 in the next 10 days before I go. The car has come in very handy as a pet taxi! After I leave vouchers for spay and neuter will be available from Karen Taylor at Bending Tree Yoga. Thank you for all your support. This has been an awesome experience and I've learned a lot about people and dogs! For me the lesson is flexibility and strategic planning. And Pro Animal Melaque has been the biggest support imaginable! But I sure hope Cisco's Amigos is back next year as I am very interested in pet adoptions locally and in Canada or the US. Also fostering and helping to provide emergency care as there is no vet here. And the biggest thanks goes out to Melaque veterinarian, Beto Vigil who has met me 4 days a week at 7am. He is the most dedicated friend of the animals I've ever met! Thank you to the other drivers of the future: Randy & Lyn, Rita, Cruz, Dean & Judy, Patti and Denis (I've lost your email) who signed up and haven't had a chance yet as I've monopolized this position. Your time will come when I leave in 18 days! Thanks in advance.

Norma I want to thank you so much for stepping up to the plate and doing this for all the animals and people who cannot afford to do this. It was so great that after the fund raiser you just dove in and started doing what everyone contributed money to have done!! You are awesome. I agree, Beto has been amazing and he has helped me a lot every time I took animals in there to be helped as well. Also, the people at Pro Animal are just amazing and I really hope people will contribute to them for their ongoing expenses. They do amazing work and have a really good thing set up with all the vets and also the Mexican people around here...We are very lucky to have them and also people like you Norma..... Also big thanks to Valerie who stepped up and offered to foster the little pup we got off the roof who was in such terrible shape Thanks to Beto, and to Paula and Valerie she(the pup- Frida) is doing so well and is ready for adoption. A beautiful girl who will make a sweet and loving companion for some lucky person.....thanks to everyone who is helping the animals. Linda Mandala
ps Valerie if you have not posted a picture of Frida I bet everyone would love to see her.
