Celebrating 10 Years of The Sato Project

When The Sato Project was founded in 2011, our work began by rescuing one dog at a time from Dead Dog Beach. 10 Years later we have flown and vetted over 6,000 dogs from the streets and beaches of Puerto Rico to loving homes on the mainland. We have also spay/neutered and vaccinated over 7,500 animals and distributed 136K lbs of disaster relief supplies across the island in the wake of Puerto Rico's multiple natural disasters. None of these accomplishments would have been possible without the support of our #satostrong community. Read this special edition 10th Anniversary Program Report for The Sato Project's full story.

FINDING A NEW HOME

DIRECT ADOPTION AND SHELTER PLACEMENTS

The Sato Project’s rescue efforts

would not be possible without the

thousands of families who have

opened up their hearts and homes

to our Puerto Rican treasures.

Every dog deserves to have a safe place to live, a cozy bed

to sleep on, healthy food to eat, and a family to love and

cherish them. This is the dream we have for every sato that

we rescue.

From the very beginning, we developed an adoption

application process to ensure that our dogs only go to the

safest and most loving homes. After everything these dogs

have been through, it is extremely important to ensure

they never want for anything in their lives ever again. At

first, Chrissy Beckles found these families herself through

friends and word of mouth. Then the creation of a Facebook

page helped us reach more adopters. Gradually, as word

spread, we started getting more adoption applications than

we could keep up with. Our team of adoption volunteers
