Our Story
In 2014, a single act of compassion set the stage for what would become a monumental movement for the dogs of Puerto Rico. Founded by our visionary, Edith Fred, our organization began as a humble effort to rescue a litter of puppies found helpless on the roadside. Moved by the sight, Edith couldn’t simply walk away; she knew she had to act.
What started with that one gesture has grown exponentially, and today, we are a vibrant community of over 60,000 strong, spread across the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. Our mission has never wavered: to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome the wounded and homeless dogs that find themselves lost in every corner of our island.
Rescata Perros en Puerto Rico isn’t just a nonprofit; it’s a testament to the power of collective compassion and a beacon of hope for the voiceless. We believe that every dog, no matter its past, age, or circumstance, deserves a future filled with love and care.
