About Baja Dogs La Paz
Baja Dogs La Paz, Inc. (BDLP) is a U.S. non-profit organization that supports local communities, veterinarians and other animal rescue organizations in La Paz, BCS, Mexico to provide complimentary sterilization and other preventive care services. Since the beginning of 2021, we have successfully funded over 3,400 sterilizations, and funding has been secured to accomplish hundreds more. Baja Dogs La Paz, Inc., has been in existence for 13 years, during which the organization has helped local rescuers in La Paz to find permanent, loving homes for hundreds of dogs. In the beginning of 2021, recognizing that adoption alone was not enough to address the overpopulation of street dogs in La Paz, BDLP shifted its focus to sterilization and preventive care.
BDLP continues to support other local rescue organizations on a grant basis. You can see the list of organizations and local veterinarians we work with here.
