Paw Patrol is a 501c3 non profit animal rescue. I am Annie Lopez Garay, VP and co founder of the organization. I along with my rescue partner, Cristy Torres are very hands on and are involved in every aspect of the day to day business. We network for donations, fosters, adoptions, events. We organize events. We approve all foster and adoption applications, interview candidates. We transport to our vets and to our fosters/adopters. We are in constant contact with the fosters and vets about all of the pets under the rescue.

Cristy and I are incredible animal lovers, we have many of our own and cannot turn a blind eye to the epidemic of abandoned animals, especially in South Florida. We conducted a huge donation drive after Hurricane Harvey and were able to help the needy in Texas and then all over Florida and the Islands after Maria hit. We need to speak for those who cannot. We've adopted hundreds of animals and have helped hundreds more by networking with fellow rescues and advocates.

Our adoption fee is $350 and $500 for bonded pairs. It helps pay for the pet's exams, de-worming, prevention, microchip and spay/neuter.

An application must be filled out and sent back. If we feel the applicant could be a candidate for the specific dog they are inquiring about, we vet the application. If all checks out, we then schedule a home visit. Once the home visit is completed and passed, we conduct a phone interview. After that, the meet and greet is set up and if all goes well, the approved adopter pays the fee and adopts the dog.
