Ana Luisa Tenorio Martínez, or as many affectionately know her, Ana de los Perros, is well known around the historic neighborhood of Analco and throughout Guadalajara, where she can be found with her shopping cart full of recyclables and her furry friends. Ana has dedicated her life to taking care of street dogs. She goes from door to door collecting recyclables, which she cashes in to purchase dog food and medicines, but it falls far short of the tremendous need she finds every time she steps outside her door, so she collects donations every way that she can.
Recently, for example, she rescued Milo, a Chihuahua who was run over by a car a little over a month ago and suffered a fractured pelvic bone; she took him in and is nursing him until he can walk again. Meanwhile she cares for about 24 dogs every day, some of them in her home, some in safe spaces that people have given her access to in other neighborhoods. She gives every penny of what she can collect by buying dog food and medicines and taking animals with urgencies to the vet. She is an extraordinary woman. Any investment in the work of Ana de los Perros will do a lot of good to alleviate the suffering of these creatures.
Thank you Tracy for bringing Ana to our attention
We will help Ana through our PawPal initiative, membership and donations.
