Dogs have an incredible knack for adventure, often finding themselves in situations humans can barely imagine.
The person responsible for their rescue shared their firsthand account of the moment they set out on the mission.
Finally, they are on dry land now in our shelter.
In the meantime, they will stay at the shelter until they are sterilized by the veterinarian.
Captain of the Port of Iquique, Ricardo Caceres, confirmed the details of the report they received.
On Monday or Tuesday, we received a complaint regarding some dogs that were abandoned on a boat.
After almost six days, we decided to carry out the rescue.
We also issued a summons to the Public Prosecutors Office for mistreatment of the animals, Caceres stated.
One of the dogs, a female, was found to be pregnant.
For now, both dogs remain under the care of Patitas del Desierto as authorities determine their fate.
