My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Gemma! This sweet pup was found wandering the streets, disoriented and alone for days. Despite many people sharing posts about her, no one came forward to claim her. Rumor has it she was abandoned along with two other dogs. When we found her by a trash can, she looked heartbroken and defeated.

Today, Gemma is thriving and full of life! We think she’s a mix of Dachshund, Border Collie, and perhaps a few other mystery breeds. She’s brimming with love, a touch of sass, and a whole lot of personality! Gemma would be a wonderful addition to any family or a loyal companion for someone looking for a best friend.

More about this shelter

Two women, one American, and one Mexican met in Sayulita through their mutual concern for the many sick, abandoned, neglected, and abused dogs and cats in the area.

They began working together informally to rescue, rehabilitate, and find homes for these animals. Their efforts eventually led to the formation of Wet Noses Rescue, which has grown from a small backyard operation to an expanding nonprofit housed on a property with dedicated facilities in Punta de Mita. Providing the animals with health care, rehabilitation, socialization, and careful evaluation which is needed for a successful adoption to new homes in the United States and Canada.

Wet Noses Rescue also provides Spay/Neuter clinics in the local community to reduce overpopulation and vaccinations to reduce the prevalence of serious diseases such as Parvo and Distemper.
