A sweet rescue puppy from Puerto Rico for you tonight


This brave puppy was found protecting his friends even though he was badly hurt. Rescuers worked so hard to help him heal — and then flew him to his new forever home 🐶 ✈️ ❤️ (via @TheSatoProject) pic.twitter.com/qs9xpAxtqo

Puerto Rico animal rescue, at The Sato Project

The Sato Project is dedicated to rescuing abused and abandoned dogs in Puerto Rico, locally referred to as “satos”. Since its inception in 2011, The Sato Project has largely focused its efforts on a place unfortunately known as “Dead Dog Beach” in the municipality of Yabucoa, one of the island's poorest. We have rescued over 2,000 dogs to date, rehabilitated them with the highest standards of veterinary care and placed them in loving homes in the mainland U.S. We are addressing the underlying causes of overpopulation, abandonment, and abuse through community outreach and a low-cost Spay, Neuter, Vaccine and Microchip Program. Since the devastation of Hurricane Maria, The Sato Project has evacuated over 300 dogs to safety and is working to keep families with their beloved pets, and to help the many animals left behind in the storm’s aftermath.
