AAUSY AND HER PUPS' STORY -
From Street Dog to Family Pet This is Aausy, named after our organization. Starved, missing an eye and found caring for 2 of her own pups and 4 orphaned pups in Mexicali, Mexico, Aausy and her pups are now safe, being fed and cared for in a foster home in California where she will sleep tonight with a full stomach and not have to struggle to find a safe resting place for her pups. With generous support from a foster dad, and donations to Animal Advocates of the US, street dogs like Aausy will no longer have to struggle for a daily meal or search for safe, warm place to rest. Will you help us feed and care for another street dog or cat waiting for a kind look their way?

PETPALOOZA PET ADOPTION5/23 SUCCESS - 2 dogs and 2 kittens adopted
These beautiful souls survived living on the streets without anyone to care for them. They survived starvation. They survived abuse. Now, they have hope for a happy life. These wonderful dogs and cats need a forever home. Please read their stories and let their love touch your heart.
Hoppy was taken from the Mexicali shelter just hours before he was scheduled to be euthanized. He is a sweet dog, loves to go on walks. He currently lives with cats and dogs but as far as we know, has not been exposed to children.
RESCUED PUPPIES 3 Labrador-mix puppies rescued from Mexicali, Mexico are waiting for good, forever homes.
JULIE AND MAYA I have always been crazy for animals and have taken in many over the years. My husband and I got Oka, a crippled spaniel mix with 4 teeth whom we absolutely adore and ended up keeping her! Next came Maya, a long haired chihuahua who added a lot of "life" in our dog family. After the fires in San Diego in '07 I decided to help by fostering.
JULIE, DENNIS AND FOSTER FRIENDS We have been fostering furiously ever since, placing over 80 dogs and cats. It has been the most rewarding experience of my life, seeing the animals becoming comfortable in their new environment (most come from horrible conditions) and hearing from the adopters who love their new "family members."
WENDY ADOPTED! Wendy was rescued from the perrera in Tijuana. She was dumped there with her new born puppies, and was waiting to be put down after her puppies were put down. Marlene, a AAOFUS volunteer, brought her home. She was spayed and adopted by a wonderful family who have recently lost their Dalmatian. Thank you Marlene for giving this sweet dog an opportunity for a happy life!
