Pawsitive Match
To make a small contribution, Spot is excited to partner with Pawsitive Match.Based in Canada, Pawsitive Match has embarked on dog & cat rescue missions here at home, Mexico, Thailand, and the USA for more than 15 years.Entirely run by volunteers, this great rescue provides homes for surrendered pups, and offers refuge for dogs & cats from crowded or closing shelters, who might otherwise be euthanized.

"They say they don’t have time, or there’s no one home all day, or the dog is showing some challenging behaviors."
