Thank you for supporting The Animal Pad as part of Garchie Jones NYE | New Year. Good Beginnings. Happy Tails. We wanted to kick off the new year by giving back, and your generosity helps rescue dogs in need and give them a fresh start—something we all could use sometimes. We hope it makes your tail wag, too. Thank you for being part of it.

The Animal Pad (TAP) is a non-profit, all breed dog and cat rescue, which focuses on saving animals from high kill shelters and the streets of Mexico.

We get them vet care, place them in foster homes, and then find them loving forever families. TAP focuses much of our attention on the street dogs in Mexico, as there is very little help for them. We have a large rescue network in Baja California and a sister shelter in Ensenada that we pull dogs from whenever funds allow.

Our Mission

…is to form a safe space for dogs and cats experiencing crisis and neglect and to build a community of compassion through education, rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption. Our community of volunteers and fosters strives to ensure that all animals get a fighting chance and believes that no case is too extreme to be helped. This means our rescue is full of perfectly imperfect animals who can't wait to meet you.

Our Vision

…is to build, operate, and maintain a no-kill animal sanctuary. We would love to expand this model into other cities and help others wanting to create similar sanctuaries.

Our TAP Family

The Animal Pad is only able to do what we do through a network of volunteers, fosters, donors, sponsor organizations, and adopters. It truly takes a village, and we are always looking for more help! TAP is seeking new avenues for fundraising, veterinary care, pet supplies, and anything that can assist us in helping these innocent souls.
