Because the citizen does not have the physical space to house all the animals, the Municipal Health Directorate summoned the local protective associations to meeting for promote its adoptionHowever this also refusedwhich is worrying because these female dogs could be left in the street with the risk of being run over, injured or poisoned, in addition to the fact that they would continue to reproduce.
In collaboration with GEPA, Huellita con Causa IAP came to support him with pills for fleas and ticks, dewormer, insecticide shampoo and liquid to fumigate. For its part, Amigos Animalistas has come to the place with the intention of helping to promote adoptions and deal with the issue of fleas, because although the dogs are in good weight, there is a flea infestation so it was urgent to help at this point.
Currently the animals remain on the property, since the banking institution granted that as long as they are sterilized and each of them has a home, they continue there; In addition, access was given to their owner to continue coming to feed them despite the fact that she no longer lives in this house.

The municipal authority of Culiacán calls for citizen awareness on the issue of animal care and responsible ownership, since it is necessary to insist that these animals cannot and should not be left on the street and it is a priority that each one of them be sterilized and adopted, since it is also a public health issue that cannot be ignored and cannot be postponed any longer.
Likewise, it appeals to the sensitivity and conscience of the owner with whom it has maintained a dialogue and who is once again asked to agree to the sterilization and promotion of the adoption of these 33 mestizo dogs.
