¿Quienes somos?
Estamos unidos en la creencia que los perros y los gatos son criaturas vivas, y no deben ser tratados menos que los humanos. Son capaces de amar y crear relaciones sociales. Experimentan dolor, emociones, miedo y desesperación. Por lo tanto, es responsabilidad de los seres humanos evitar la crueldad contra ellos, al mismo tiempo que les brindan la protección y la seguridad que tan desesperadamente necesitan sin importar dónde se encuentren...
Help Save Stray Dogs from Deadly Screwworm Infestation in El Salvador
We urgently need support to save stray and vulnerable dogs in El Salvador from the deadly New World Screwworm. The infection starts when the fly lays eggs in wounds, soft tissue, such as the nose, mouth, or bites from fleas/ticks, or any minute lesion. The infestation causes severe pain, infection, foul wounds, maggots, loss of appetite, and death within 10 days of infection, if untreated.
We treat as many infected dogs as possible within the first five days to prevent death. Treatment includes Nexgard Spectra, maggot removal, wound cleaning, antibiotics, pain relief, ivermectin, and wound protection with Ciper-Clor spray. Your help saves lives.
Every contribution, big or small, makes a real impact. Even just a few dollars can help us buy what we need to help each dog:

Nexgard Spectra XG - one month protection - 30 a 60 KG $ 43.45

Pyometra
The dogs we spay at Hope Bridge/Fundacion Gratitud often come from the streets and endure various health challenges. One common issue we encounter in female dogs is Pyometra, a severe and life-threatening infection that affects the uterus of unspayed female dogs.
When we perform a spay operation involving the surgical removal of the ovaries and uterus, known as OVH, on a female dog with Pyometra, we are not only treating the current condition but also preventing future health issues.
This surgery not only addresses Pyometra but also helps prevent mammary tumors and provides treatment and prevention for conditions such as metritis, neoplasms (ovarian, uterine, or vaginal), cysts, uterine trauma, uterine torsion, uterine prolapse, subinvolution of placental sites, vaginal prolapse, vaginal hyperplasia, and viral uterine diseases like TVT (Transmissible Venereal Tumor).
