We are a small but passionate team dedicated to rescuing dogs in need from Puerto Rico and helping them find loving forever homes in Colorado. Overpopulation and lack of resources for stray dogs have become a growing crisis in Puerto Rico. Many dogs are left to fend for themselves, including pregnant mothers and their puppies who have little chance of survival on the streets. With only a handful of rescues on the island—most of which are stretched beyond capacity—the need for action is urgent.
Our mission is to identify dogs in dire circumstances, provide them with the care they need, and transport them from Puerto Rico to Colorado. Once here, we work tirelessly to place them in loving homes. From adorable puppies to loyal adult companions, we have dogs of all sizes and ages ready to become part of your family. We aim to show people that there’s no need to turn to breeders when there are so many incredible rescue dogs waiting for a second chance. To learn more about adopting please click here.
Our success wouldn’t be possible without the invaluable support of local fosters. Offering just a few weeks of your time can make a life-changing difference for a dog. Fostering provides a safe and loving environment where dogs can begin their journey toward a new life, and it allows us to continue rescuing more dogs in need.

Together, we can give these amazing dogs the future they deserve. Join us in our mission to rehabilitate and rehome Puerto Rico dogs—whether by adopting, fostering, or supporting our efforts. Every act of kindness brings us closer to saving more lives.

Amigos de los Animales Colorado is now: Blue Sky Satos!
Julietta is a loving, adaptable pup who’s ready to bring joy to her forever home. She walks well on a leash, especially when following her pack. She’s currently working on her outdoor potty training.
Very playful, always looking for attention and ready to cuddle, unless she is actively wrestling or argument over a toy with her sister. She enjoys toys, chew bones, and of course — treats! She has been around other dogs, cats and children and does excellent with both, making her a great fit for a family home.
Julietta is up to date with her vaccines, awaiting spay and microchipping.
Usually, satos (homeless dogs from Puerto Rico) are a mix of many breeds, some chihuahua, some pit and you name it! By they are always loving and grateful. We do not know what breed Julietta is. We anticipate she will grow into a small size adult, possibly under 25 lb.

Meet Sabrina 🐶
What is describe Sabrina aka “Sabby” : she is quiet, calm, and very affectionate puppy. She loves to please her humans🥰 she is not destructive at all - and not a mouthy play biter. She is house and crate trained. She loves gathering her favorite toys and putting them with her on her puppy bed. If I were ever gonna have a foster fail, Sabby is the one!!! She’s great with other dogs, children, and adults.
She would be great with a family with or without children & other pets.
She does love her dog siblings… so probably at home with another dog would be ideal.
If interested in adopting Sabrina please fill out our online application linked below.

Today, Juanita underwent another surgery to remove the plate and wires from her left femur at @plannedpethoodintl . Her medical bills continue to add up, and we’re so grateful to everyone who has already donated to Juanita’s GoFundMe or supported her in other ways. 💛
We truly couldn’t have come this far without you.
If you’re unable to donate right now, please consider sharing Juanita’s story and GoFundMe to help us reach more people. Her link is in our bio! 🐾

Our adoptable puppy Serena is dressed as Sherlock Holmes for Halloween, and she’s hoping to put the clues together to solve the case of finding her forever family!

One year ago, Juanita was found in Puerto Rico—hit by a car, broken, and left in the heat with only a cup of water she couldn’t reach. Ruby rescued her, and thanks to your kindness, she survived surgery and began to heal.
Since then, Juanita has come so far—she’s learned to trust, loves pupcups, and even helps “manage” puppies. But her journey isn’t over. After another leg surgery and months of care, her medical costs have grown beyond what our small rescue can cover.
Please help us continue giving Juanita the healthy, happy life she deserves. Every donation makes a difference.
We will have our GoFundMe Link to our Bio for donations. We go more into details on our GFM and will be updating there also.

We’re looking for a few good homes to help us increase our impact by becoming foster homes!
Fostering is a wonderful way to give back to your community and bring a puppy into your home. We provide the supplies, you provide the love and nurturing!
We have the ability to bring up to six puppies to Colorado in early October (pictured here!), but only if we have foster homes to place them in. If you’re interested, please fill out our application; the link is in our bio!
Feel free to post questions here; we’re happy to answer and hope you’ll join us!
Quit crying over your situationship and adopt a man who will be loyal to you through thick and thin. We’re talking about our guy Mork, of course. Send us a friendship bracelet with your number or email if you want him to be your Travis.
