The Mexico City Metro's Canine Transfer Center (CTC) is extending its reach beyond its facilities to find homes for rescued dogs. This Saturday, the CTC will host an adoption event at Parque Arboledas, bringing three dogs with varying energy levels to meet potential adopters. The goal is to match each dog with a suitable family, ensuring successful and lasting adoptions.
This initiative aims to rehome some of the 42 dogs currently under the CTC's care. The center has already facilitated 11 adoptions through 49 previous events. The event at Parque Arboledas, located in the Del Valle neighborhood, will run from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Staff will be on hand to help prospective owners assess which dog best fits their lifestyle and living situation.
The CTC, situated in Azcapotzalco, operates primarily on donations. They are requesting essential supplies such as dry and wet dog food, bowls, leashes, collars, blankets, toys, and medical supplies for injured animals. For those unable to attend the Saturday event, the CTC is open for adoptions and donations from Monday to Sunday, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
