I volunteered with Save Our Scruff, Rescue and Rehome in February 2024 in Puebla, Mexico as a documenting photographer. We partnered with the Dog-Go Project Mexico for a 2-day spay and neuter clinic, and with Funky Town Puebla to bring over 20 dogs back to Toronto.
A stray dog, affectionately nicknamed Lulu, living by the pop up clinic was happy with all her visitors
Andrea gives Lulu some scratches while setting up a supplies table. All families were given leashes, food for their pets, and care instructions.

Kron enjoys a head pat. Fostered in Hamilton, Kron was one of the first dogs of our trip to be adopted
An elderly dog, Margot, is cuddled by Cynthia. Older dogs receive excellent care and are kept together to ensure they're not frustrated by their younger fellows
Santana tastes some Save Our Scruff merch, an important part of the approvals process
A cat lazes on a log at Funkytown. All dogs deemed suitable for adoption are brought into the rescued cats pen to test how they fare with other furry friends. This is to give the best information to potential adopters.
