Island Puppy Rescue
Island Puppy Rescue has suspended rescue operations effective August 1, based on new CDC regulations banning the importation of puppies younger than 6 month old from rabies free islands:
Sadly August 1st marked the end (hopefully not permanent end) to our mission of finding loving homes for homeless island puppies. The CDC has banned the importation of puppies under 6 months old which brings our work to a stop, since 6 month old puppies are too big to travel in airlline passenger cabins. We, along with other rescues are working on ideas to convince the CDC to exclude us from this ban. More on that later.
For now, we are asking our wonderful village of adopters, puppy escorts and all of our supporters to help us raise money for I Love My Island Dog Association’s spay neuter mission. ILMIDA has always worked very hard to have as many dogs on the island spayed or neutered. Now, with the inability to send those puppies to the States, it is even more critical to provide as many free and low-cost surgeries possible!
Many of you have participated in our Pampered Chef parties in the past. These parties have been very successful!

Island Puppy Express - Adopt a Caribbean Puppy
The Caribbean island of Saint Martin, a French and Dutch Overseas Territory, and other island in the Caribbean, have an overpopulation of puppies and dogs. Exotic looking, smart and with fabulous personalities, some puppies are fostered right here on the East Coast of the USA!
On the Island of Saint Martin, we work with I Love My Island Dog Association, the Island’s largest animal shelter and rescue organization.
Through Island Puppy Rescue’s partnership with I Love My Island Dog Association , travelers from and to St. Martin volunteer to bring pets to Island Puppy Rescue foster homes, where they are further socialized and matched up with the perfect families! All pets have been examined by vets, vaccinations have begun.
Recently, Island Puppy Rescue has partnered with the St. Eustatius Animal Welfare Foundation to assist
in finding forever homes for puppies from the island of Statia, part of the Netherlands Antillies.
Island Puppy Rescue sometimes also fosters puppies brought by travelers from the Cayman Island Humane Society on Grand Cayman, Potcake Place on Turks and Caicos, the St. Croix Animal Welfare Center in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Anguilla Animal Rescue Foundation (AARF) and Save a Sato on
Puerto Rico.
International travelers returning from St. Martin,St. Eustatius, Anguilla, the Cayman Islands, Turks and Caicos other Caribbean destinations can also volunteer to participate in the Puppy Express by contacting the local animal rescue organization on the island they are visiting.
And best of all: Saint Martin, St. Eustatius in the Netherlands Antilles, and other Caribbean nations are rabies-free countries, as recognized by the CDC!
