Dr. Dog is a non-profit association founded in 2020 in response to the increase in the incidence of abandoned animals in the country. It was created with the objective of providing shelter and attention to dogs that have been abandoned and/or mistreated; as well as carrying out educational work aimed at raising awareness about animal welfare in the Paraguayan population.

Dr Dog. is a non-profit organization, but the project is not yet self-sustaining. To carry out this mission we need the monetary or logistical contribution of institutions or citizens of goodwill willing to collaborate with this noble cause. All rescues and treatments are carried out thanks to godfathers, godmothers and donors in general.
They require a rooftop as much as you and I do.
At Dr. Dog we have the mission of rescuing abandoned animals on the streets, and offering them temporary shelter where we provide them with health care, both curative of existing conditions and prevention of infectious and parasitic diseases. In addition, we give them a balanced diet, training, not least, a lot of love.
We don't keep them in cages! The members of this great family enjoy spacious premises, where they can be grouped according to their preferences and personalities (yes, puppies also have their own personality and tastes).
Each location has shady and sunny areas, feeding and drinking areas and even toys.
We are proud to have a small veterinary center on our own premises, where we provide basic care (blood tests, vaccinations and medications).
In the case of surgeries or more specialized treatments, these are referred to friendly veterinary clinics.
Respect for life
All rescued animals are treated with due respect. We practice zero sacrifices. Our staff has adequate training in the initial handling of dogs, which often arrive in a very poor state of health, malnourished and sometimes show aggressive behavior due to their mistreatment on the street.
New identity
Upon admission, they are given a name if they do not have it previously, they are given identification and are examined to guide their medical care. Each animal has its file, where its data will be recorded, as well as its medications and the vaccines administered to it.
Rehabilitation with love
The puppies are rehabilitated, cared for with care and prepared before embarking on the search for future adopters who can provide them with a happy life.
