Henry Beans appeared in the Candelaria community at the north end f Antigua a few months ago. He is a smart guy, and quickly sorted out which neighbors were soft touches for food and affection and which to avoid. He attached himself to a kind woman and her daughter, who leave water and food out…

Bob and his sister Marly probably should be dead. They were tied into a sack and thrown into a river to drown. Luckily for them, a kind person spotted the moving sack and waded into the river to retrieve them. They were tiny, sick and pretty pathetic. This kind hearted samaritan found a local family…

Brandy is a little Cocker Spaniel type dog we found sick, matted, thin and very dirty wandering in the middle of a busy road above Antigua. Although close to ‘pure-bred’ by local standards, she was in very poor condition. No one ever posted or reached out looking for her. Once recuperated, we took her to…

Puppy Mayco (My-co) was wandering at the side of the busy highway that connects Antigua and Guatemala City in the town of Milpas Altas. He was scrounging for food and in danger of being hit by passing cars. He was laden with parasites, but otherwise in fairly good condition. Mayco is about 4 months old,…

We brought Iggy in in early October. He was a local mutt who we have seen almost daily for a year or so. He would walk all the way into Antigua from somewhere near El Hato every day, presumably to mooch food in town. Several bar staff knew him and fed him when he cruised…

On March 21, we dug six small puppies out of a den in a hillside near Antigua. The pups were born to a feral female that later caught and spayed. The six puppies were five weeks old and growing up feral. We had to bring them in at this age or risk not being able…
