Animal Sterilization Clinic Update

Reply To:	Ruby McKenzie <valjala2@gmail.com>

On Sunday, the 29th of January, we were able to sterilize another 136 animals in our Boquete clinic, most of which were female dogs(78). Thanks to our many volunteers "old" and "new" the day went exceedingly well.  We had five great vets(2 Americans, 2 Costa Ricans and one Panamanian) to do the surgeries and several helpers in the operating room.  Two dogs underwent surgery for tumors and we had one cesarian birth event which produced 4 more potential puppies to sterilize.  A special salute to our "animal collectors" who take care of Potrerillos, Caldera, Boquete, Palmira and El Flor as they brought in 69 of the 136 animals sterilized and thanks to the transportation workers and volunteers, the animals were safely transported to and from their locations in a timely manner.  Doug Tyler has volunteered to coordinate transportation and can be contacted directly at 6799-7855 if you can supply a truck or driver for the animal pick ups for the February 26 clinic.  Call Jessica for appointments at 6563-8686 or email boqueteanimales@gmail.com.  Also a special thanks to Nairn Kennedy and Theresa Joyce for their food contributions, YUM!  Right now, we are all gearing up for the big Bid4Boquete Bash coming up on the 11th and 12th of February.  You still have time to clean those closets and bodega of any "stuff" you no longer need or want.  Allicia McGuigan is our pick up person...6780-3565.  And, do not forget the special boutique sale this Sunday at the Amigos de Boquete office just around from Mike's Grill(formerly Tammy's) and right beside the Amigos de los Animales office.  Lots of nice stuff prior to the Venta de Patio sale on the 12th of February!  New co-Presidents, Alicia McGuigan and Dottie Thompson look forward to working with all of you in the upcoming clinics.  Together we are making a HUGE difference in animal welfare in Boquete and our surrounding communities!  Many Thanks, Ruby McKenzie, Founder Fundacion Amigos de los Animales, Boquete  www.fadab.org
