My story

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

Meet Gus, Male | Small size | Puerto Rico → NJ Gus is one of five miracle puppies rescued from a roadside feeding route after being cruelly abandoned. He survived hunger, fear, and even parvovirus — a battle many puppies don’t win — and came through it stronger and gentler than ever. Gus is a sweet, sensitive soul. He enjoys human affection, does well with other dogs, and is learning how to walk confidently on a leash. With patience and encouragement, Gus will absolutely blossom. He is expected to remain small in size (8 months old and 25 pounds), is neutered, and has been carefully cared for throughout her recovery. Gus would thrive in a calm, loving home that understands he's been through a lot — and is ready to show him what forever really means. Gus is proof that even the most fragile beginnings can lead to beautiful futures.

More about this rescue

Save the Satos Inc. is a non-profit, registered 501c3 organization which is focused on changing the lives of the stray dogs (known to the locals as Satos) of Puerto Rico. We rescue the unwanted dogs of the island, and transport them to NJ where they are placed in loving foster homes. The Satos are made happy and healthy, socialized, spayed/neutered and put up for adoption to find their forever home.

Save the Satos also focuses on helping pet owners in Puerto Rico by providing food, shelter, spay/neuter, flea/tick/heart worm prevention, vaccines and veterinary care to families in need.
