From Outta the Cage

Nuestra misión en Outta the Cage es ayudar a las personas a ver a los perros de los refugios como individuos. Viajamos a refugios, donde filmamos a los perros en patios de juego y áreas abiertas. Luego compartimos estos videos en las redes sociales y en nuestro sitio web, reclutando personas para correr la voz. También compartimos información y mejores prácticas sobre cómo establecer redes de perros de refugio, ofreciendo consejos probados en el campo para una defensa, crianza, adopción y creación de redes exitosas. Outta the Cage está directamente involucrado en nuestra comunidad, fomentando perros difíciles de adoptar y trabajando con otros rescates para encontrar adoptantes. Damos prioridad a los animales en riesgo, incluidos los perros mayores, enfermos y con necesidades especiales, y las llamadas razas dominantes. De vez en cuando también asesoramos a refugios, organizaciones de defensa de los animales y empresas privadas sobre la aplicación de la tecnología de la información al rescate de animales.
