I would like to announce the brand
new site for the AWARE Shelter in Guatemala. We are online as for the
1st. of October 2001.
The AWARE shelter at Hound Heights (Sumpango,
Sacatepequez) is a No-Kill shelter for the rescue and rehabilitation of
abused and abandoned domestic animals in Guatemala. The mistreatment and
abandonment of domestic animals is a chronic problem in Guatemala. At
the Shelter, the animals are cured of any illness from which they may be
suffering (most commonly mange and malnutrition), given all necessary
vaccinations, socialized with others of their kind and with humans, and
put up for adoption. It is AWARE�s policy to spay/neuter all the animals
that come to us.
AWARE is funded through donations, membership
subscriptions, and fund-raising events. As well as the Shelter, we run
free or low-cost spay/neuter and rabies vaccination clinics throughout
Guatemala. We also run school visits to help raise the level of animal
welfare, pet care, and environmental awareness amongst young people in
this country.

please don't hesitate to contact us and pay us a visit!!
