ADOPTIONS SPCA
Cats and dogs can be adopted at the Biblioteca Los Mangos every
Saturday from 10-2. SPCA de PV volunteers will provide information
regarding age and breed. All animals adopted out by our volunteer
crew are sterilized, tested for disease, vaccinated, dewormed, treated
for Ticks and fleas and bathed. SPCA de PV pays all costs. We
request donations of minimum $500 Pesos per Dog and $300 Pesos per Cat. This helps with our expenses and indicates an ability to care for the pet.
The address of Biblioteca Los Mangos is:
Av. Francisco Villa 1001, Los Mangos
Directions to Biblioteca Los Mangos:
If you are coming from Fluvial Ave., pass Costco at the first stop light on the right.

Directions to the PV City Animal Center/Centro de Acopio Animal
From downtown, take Francisco Villa East (same street as Library) heading toward Pitillal. At the Fluvial entrance take a RIGHT, East, there is a sign with the Acopio logo on it.
Follow that road until you reach the end and take a left,north, there's another Acopio sign. Go three blocks and make a RIGHT, east (this is Pavo Real, there is a blue road sign on the apartment building and an Acopio sign on a post.)
Follow Pavo Real - stay to the left at the fork where you will pass Rancho Leon (polo ponies) on your right, (there is another Acopio sign.) You will then come to a cement sign that says "Colonia Santa Maria." At that street you will need to veer LEFT onto Santa Maria. Go 1 block to the split in the road and keep going STRAIGHT onto Playa de Oro street. Go about 4 blocks, take a LEFT, north. Actually the road ends here.
Go to the first street on the right (looks like a run down log cabin on the corner) - this is Costa de Oro street, where you'll see another Acopio sign. Take a RIGHT at Costa de Oro and go up the hill - until you see the CENTRO DE ACOPIO ANIMALS sign, make a left. Turn right into the driveway, there is a big gate.
