Foster Homes - Puerto Vallarta
Our community of rescuers almost always have houses full of animals, at the moment there are 5 fosters in one of our houses where four adult dogs already live! We need your help! The great thing about fostering an animal is that there's almost always something that you can do to help. Fostering can last overnight, a weekend, a week or a couple months. Sometimes, a puppy can go through three or more foster homes between being rescued, nursed back to health, fixed and finding their forever home. If you can offer shelter to one of these always grateful pups for a night, weekend or any amount of time, please take a look at our foster home application and contact MexPup-Mexico or MexPup-Canada to volunteer. We want you to join our community and we need your help.
If you can't foster a MexPup yourself, maybe you could help someone who is by walking, playing or just sitting with one of MexPup's rescues.

Guardian Angels
Guardian Angels serve this community via "The Five Hour Flying Foster Fix". A volunteer Air Force of North American travelers and animal lovers chaperone MexPup dogs from Puerto Vallarta to an airport near their new homes. It's a great win-win experience where the Guardian Angel gets the chance to rescue a dog, the dog gets safely from Mexico to a new home and they both get to meet some fantastic people along the way!
What does it take to be a Guardian Angel? Surprisingly little. Have you got a plane ticket? Do you like dogs? Great! Welcome to the MexPup Volunteer Air Force. We're working on getting you your wings!

Foster Home - Canada
MexPup can't begin looking for a Guardian Angel to escort a MexPup out of Mexico until we know there's a Foster Home waiting on the other side. Fostering a MexPup after he or she has arrived in their new country is so important. One day this little rescue was homeless in Mexico, and then WHOOOSH! Everything has changed! The sky looks different, the air smells different, there aren't any taco stands anywhere. What happened to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our foster families take the little MexPups into their homes and shower them with love, care and attention. They make sure that when their little foster puppy meets their forever family that the puppy is happy, well adjusted and ready to shine! Please take a look at our foster home application and contact [email protected] to volunteer and help us save homeless dogs, they need you and so do we!
Become a Forever Home
The most important part of the MexPup process is of course matching the puppy with the Forever Home. Once MexPet takes in a dog off the streets, a commitment is made to shelter the puppy until it's healthy and fixed and then find that puppy someone who will just as diligently commit to the MexPup's health, happiness and well being.
When you adopt a MexPup, you're not only saving a homeless animal and thereby being a wonderful person. You're also bringing a new personality into your home. When you treat your rescue with love, appreciation and kindness, you will get all that and so much more in return. Most dogs are pretty lovable in general, but there's no dog in the world more lovable than your rescue dog.

Coming to PV? You can help!
If you need another reason to hop on a plane and fly to beautiful Puerto Vallarta Mexico, have we got just the perfect excuse! No really, better than; "my tan lines are completely gone", "I'm having street taco withdrawl" or even "I lost my sunglasses in the ocean, need to go find them". "Try this... I have to help MexPup bring dog kennels back to Puerto Vallarta, so they can rescue more homeless puppies".
Mexpup's dog kennels need to get back to Puerto Vallarta and you can help! We'll make it so easy on you that the only way you'll know you're helping is the expressions of gratitude on the faces of the great MexPup people you'll meet!
Know someone that works in the airline industry? We would love to get discounts on full kennels leaving Vallarta or empty ones coming back. Let us know if you can help.

Donate to support dogs in need
MexPup is an all volunteer organization. There are no salaries or paychecks, just reimbursements for money that our volunteers pay out of their own pockets and donations that hopefully come close to covering the costs to care for the animals. Our ability to help animals is limited by the amount of time each volunteer is able to commit and how much we can collectively provide in food, medical care and other rescue expenses.
Sadly, some of our dogs are in bad shape when we find them. We do everything we can to get them healthy & thus, sometimes the donations do not cover the expenses we incur. Sometimes we need additional money for surgeries and other medical care and in the past when that has happened we've all dug a little deeper. If you want to help but don't have time to foster or escort a MexPup, a donation of any size can help our efforts. Please note that we are a government registered non-profit organization but we do not have charitable status and thus, cannot provide receipts for tax deductions.
If you are able to assist us with a donation, we would be extremely grateful.
