Our Travel with your Rescued Dog or Cat page hopefully makes it easy for you to help your rescued animal – as there are no No-Kill Shelters on the Island with Open Door Policies that we are aware of
Horses
- Our Recommendation is to TRAILER your horse to Hatillo Hospital Veterinario San Francisco de Asís (787) 879-5251 – This is Dr. Ramos Clinic and it is fully staffed (people,meds,procedures) and ready to treat horses, including stalls. Dr Ramos also travels the Island so if not urgent you may be able to schedule a visit to you and your horse. Dr Ramos is the Vet for all our rescued horses, we highly recommend!!!
