My story

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

Meet Guero aka Taco!! This adorable chihuahua mix with a curly pug like tail was rescued by a kind woman in Compostela who took him and his brother Prince in and gave him a safe place to stay (Prince and Taco are not bonded and will actually do best in separate homes). Taco recently joined our rescue, and he’s been nothing short of amazing! He's incredibly sweet, and gets along well with other dogs. He is neutered, vaccinated, and ready for adoption!

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.
