Welcome
Dogs of Puerto Angel is a non-profit organization with 100% of funds used to sterilize and help stray dogs and cats in and around Puerto Angel, Mexico.
Hi, I’m Claudia Mamet. I’m originally from South Africa, but I live in Puerto Angel, Mexico where I teach at a local university and help dogs and cats in need. I have been involved in animal rescue most of my life. When I moved to Mexico in November 2019, I realized instantly that there is an overpopulation of stray animals here who struggle to survive and suffer tremendously. I can’t turn my back on these animals which is why I have established Dogs of Puerto Angel.
I spend several hours each day feeding the stray dogs in and around Puerto Angel. I also have them sterilized, vaccinated, and de-wormed at the local vet. I then try to find homes for the ones who are highly adoptable. With the support of my local vet and other animal rescuers, my primary goal is to raise funds to offer free, large-scale spay/neuter campaigns to the local communities around Puerto Angel that can’t afford to have their pets sterilized. I also raise funds to keep the 20 to 30 street dogs currently in my care healthy.
“Everyone in life has a calling, and my calling is to spend my life helping dogs and cats in need.“
Our next campaign on 29 January 2023
Spay / Neuter Campaign, 29 January 2023
We aim to start the year with a bang in Playa Zipolite by offering a large-scale spay/neuter campaign for up to 120 animals on 29 January.
The vets charge me 300 pesos / 15 USD to sterilize one animal in a large campaign. This covers the cost of their labor and surgical materials.
As an English teacher earning a humble Mexican salary, I can’t offer these campaigns without your help.
Please sponsor an animal (or two) so that we can make a positive impact in and around Puerto Angel in 2023!
Thank you for your love and support for the beautiful Cats and Dogs of Puerto Angel.

Dogs of Puerto Angel is located in Oaxaca which is the poorest province in Mexico. There is currently an overpopulation of stray animals in the area who suffer from malnutrition, disease, injury, and abuse…
