Early morning dog walking on the malecón on Saturdays is a chance to visit the mercado at Lázardo Cárdenas park before it gets busy.

| SAN VICENTE, NAYARIT |
CLINIC in San Vicente, Nayarit - March 20-23
San Vicente is a 45-minute drive northeast and where we visit at least twice a year. On the way into town on the narrow two-lane road, I passed many dogs on the street, including two tan copulating Chihuahuas. More puppies. The clinic took place a few blocks away from the main plaza and church in a small, empty white cement building that had been a little grocery store. Plywood shelves and the deli fridge were still in place. A long line of owners and pets were waiting when I arrived at 8:30 on a Wednesday, our first clinic day of the week. Locals brought in stray dogs that they had found homes for and were grateful for the donated collars and leashes. A small, skinny brown male dog had followed two of the rescues to the clinic. He was hungry, but also skittish and impossible to catch. This dog and so many others are at risk for starvation, injury or death caused by a vehicle, poisoning and disease. Surviving, they will breed.

| ANGELICA DE ANGELICAT CON 2 GATAS ATRAPADAS |
Steve Stowell, our newest board member, and I visited the clinic the morning after I returned from California. Angelica, owner of AngeliCAT, a cat rescue/adoption, was there with two feral female cats she had trapped. After being spayed, Angelica would keep the two tabbies enclosed for five days while
they recovered, and then release them to the vacant lot where they live with so many other cats.

Three women brought in three street dogs from colonia Villa de Guadalupe and said there were many more there that were homeless. They had found people to adopt the two large dogs and were happy for donated collars and leashes. The third dog was a young female- a pretty, white Lab mix- that was trembling in a kennel. As she was to be released back to the street, I called the albergue (city shelter formerly known as the acopio), to see if they had space. Yes! Angela Kelleher, enthusiastic volunteer, generously offered to take the dog to Dr. Tamayo to be tested for distemper and then to the acopio if tested negative. The sweet dog is now available for adoption at the albergue. tel.: 293-3690
