Meet SNOW WHITE / Female



Approx. DOB:  02 / 01 / 2024



Hello!
We are the seven dwarfs. Our names are Dopey, Bashful, Sneezy, Happy, Grumpy, Sleepy and Snow White - we are ALL adorable. Our mother is a family pet here in Mexico, but her human could not care for all seven of us too. She was overwhelmed trying to provide us with the basic necessities and was relieved to have help from Surfers for Strays.

Before there was room for us in the SFS program, the dedicated volunteers came by several times a week to care for us. We had fungal infections, were full of and worms and needed regular baths. We were itchy inside and out  Despite these ailments, all seven of us survived (which is rare for local litters)! We are grateful to have been rescued at such a young age, as our hearts are open and trusting and we believe in the good in the world!  We are eager to love and be loved and experience everything that entails.

We spent some time in quarantine working on our health and are now looking good enough to explore what lies beyond the 7 hills!  Now that we’re feeling better, we’ve been passing the time by talking about our future families  We are dreaming of all the activities we will do together - play, snuggle, go on adventures, just hang out and maybe try new treatos like non-poisonous apples?  We are sure that everything will be better with YOU. We’re waiting patiently for our happily ever after with our furever families!

Lots of love,
The Seven Dwarfs

More about this rescue

Surfers for Strays was started in January of 2017 by Isabel Velasco and Natalie Ritenour when they rescued 7 puppies and their mother, who had been abandoned at a local hot springs in Lagunillas, Guerrero, Mexico. The puppies were being eaten alive by parasites and their mother was severely malnourished.

Working together the women devised a plan to house and care for the animals and raise funds and more importantly, raise awareness to sterilize pets. They gained enough support in the local community to start helping “callajeros”, street animals in the villages of Troncones, Los Llanos, La Saladita and surrounding regions.

With the help of local veterinarians and citizens, they organized spay and neuter clinics and a program to educate children on how to treat and care for animals. Surfers and other travelers began volunteering and growing the network to foster and adopt animals in the US and Canada. With that momentum and the love and support of key volunteers, Surfers for Strays Inc. was founded in August of 2019 to cover more ground and help more animals escape the cycle of neglect, abuse and abandonment. From 2020-2021, Surfers for Strays adopted out more than 250 dogs and cats to fur-ever homes in North America and paid for more than 3,150 dogs and cats to be spayed and neutered in local communities in Mexico.

Your donations support our programs to sterilize, rehabilitate, find fosters and adopters for animals in need. Your donations also support education programs for the humane treatment of animals in underserved communities. Together we are saving animals and sharing the Mucho Aloha spirit.
