We are a Peruvian non-profit rescue centre for street dogs. We are located near the city of Urubamba, in the Sacred Valley of the Incas (Cusco - Peru).

We take in dogs that are unlikely to be adopted, dogs in recovery and sometimes hospice cases, and serve as a retirement home for abandoned elderly dogs.

Another important goal for this project is reaching the community; through education and community involvement, we can achieve a positive change that would benefit not only all the dogs in the area but also the humans.
