In an effort to support the Municipal Animal Shelter, people are encouraged to join the Voluntariado de Control Animal (Animal Control Volunteer Program), according to Liz López, coordinator of Rosarito’s Citizen Council for Animal Protection.

“With so many concerns, we want to focus on engaging with the Municipal Animal Control Shelter, a decision already supported by the municipal president.

“Our first initiative is to create synergy with Animal Control,” she said. She added that photos of adoptable pets will be posted on the Voluntariado Rosarito Facebook page to promote responsible pet adoption.

López emphasized that anyone concerned about animal welfare can join the volunteer program.

Volunteers participate in various activities to encourage responsible pet ownership. Interested individuals must have the time and willingness to collaborate with the Municipal Shelter.

In the coming months, awareness talks on responsible pet ownership are expected to take place. To support these efforts, a local training school is preparing a dog to accompany rescuers during educational sessions, with a focus on elementary schools.

Those interested in joining Voluntariado Rosarito can sign up through the Facebook page Huellitas Enjambre for more information.
