𝗝𝗢𝗘𝗣’𝗦 𝗔𝗗𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗝𝗢𝗨𝗥𝗡𝗘𝗬 💞 @joeptherescuedog was found with his brothers and sisters, cold and alone in the pouring rain 🌧️. Thanks to Rescue Paws Curaçao, they were rescued and given the care and warmth they desperately needed ❤️. The real adventure began when Joep was adopted by his humans during their vacation. From a small, shy puppy, he grew into a loving and happy dog. Near the beach, Joep now enjoys swimming 🏊‍♂️, running 🐾 and playing 🎾 every week. A true beach boy! 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲? The adoption process is simple: 1. Fill out the adoption form on the website 📝. 2. Complete a short questionnaire so the team can see which dog fits best with your life and household 🏡. 3. If it’s a match, everything is arranged: medical checks 🩺, vaccinations, travel documents, and the flight ✈️. 4. Start a new chapter with your dog, with Rescue Paws Curaçao providing support when needed. Adoption fees cover everything: guidance, medical treatments, vaccinations, travel with a travel crate, and post-adoption support. Many dogs like Joep are still waiting. Maybe… one is waiting for you ❤️. Contact us anytime if you’re interested 📩. #rescuepawscuraçao #rescuedog #adoptdontshop #rescuedogscuracao #dogsofinstagram

Now her painful anal glands need surgery so she can finally live without discomfort 💔.

Today in the spotlight: 🐾🐾🐾 RICO 🐾🐾🐾 When you say Rico, you think of joy, enthusiasm, cuddles, gratitude, and sweetness. Five-year-old Rico was found all alone at Hato Airport. It was clear that he wasn’t used to life on the streets, and dangerous situations quickly arose. Fortunately, someone stepped in to help this lovely boy, and he is now staying with a foster family. For Rico, we are looking for a wonderful home on Curaçao—somewhere he will receive the attention and love he truly deserves. Another dog would be nice, but it’s not a must, as Rico also entertains himself perfectly well with a ball or a coconut. He doesn’t ask for much, but he gives so much in return. With this boy, you’re bringing genuine love and loyalty into your home! 🐶 Yes 🐱 ❓ 👶🏼 Yes 👵🏻 Yes 🚗 Yes 🚶 Yes Are you looking for a great companion? For at home and for adventures together? On Curaçao? Fill out a no-obligation form for him, and we’ll arrange a meeting! ❤️ https://rescuepawscuracao.com/nl/adoptieformulier/

How is Guus doing now? 🐾💙 It’s almost impossible to describe how happy and grateful we are for Guus! 🥹 From the very first moment we got in touch, we felt so supported and knew he was in loving hands. The 3x3x3 rule turned out to be completely true: it took some getting used to at first, but very quickly Guus felt at home 🏡 After 3 months he was fully himself – his tail couldn’t be higher during walks! 🐕✨ Guus is smart, sweet, funny, and a real social butterfly 🐶💫 He loves everyone: people, dogs, and cats ❤️ And yes… treats are definitely the way to his heart 🍖😉 When we’re out on a terrace, he loves jumping onto our laps to be part of everything ☕🐾 and in the car he prefers the passenger seat to make sure everything is going smoothly 🚗😂 In the evenings he’s completely worn out, cuddling on the couch 🛋️💤 and in the mornings he happily jumps on the bed for his first cuddles 🌅💛 He truly is our buddy… we couldn’t wish for a better dog! 🥹🐾 We’re incredibly grateful and wish every dog a loving home like this ❤️🏡 Love, Rick & Irma and a paw from Guus 🐾💙 #adoptdontshop #rescuepawscuraçao

🐶 Peek at the week – Rescue Paws Curaçao
😌 Extra attention
Everon was more than ready for some scratches during the visit and clearly enjoyed all the attention. Sweet Udo also knew exactly how to get extra cuddles — he simply climbed right on top of you. 🥰
Chum and Iefke also had a great week relaxing on the couch while getting lots of belly rubs. Cozy moments all around! 🐾
🏠 New homes
Wonderful news for Gabi! She has moved in with our volunteer Ilse, who is giving her a loving home from now on. What a lucky girl! ❤️🐾
Taffy and Ivan have also found their forever homes. We wish you both a beautiful new life! 🏡
😎 New kids in town
Welcome sweethearts:
Brakkie has moved to a foster home. 💛
Salva and Reska are new at the rescue center. We’re happy you’re here and will take good care of you! 🐾
🐶 Sterilizations
This week, 17 sterilizations were performed. Every procedure helps reduce the number of stray dogs on Curaçao step by step. 💪🐾
🤝 Support and visits
Thanks to a generous donation from a volunteer, we were able to buy lots of sturdy toys for the dogs. Puppies Anne and Fleur immediately approved them! 🙌🏻❤️🐾
We also welcomed visitors from the University of Curaçao and Radboud University during their Curaçao Course Week. They visited our rescue center, learned about our work, and raised funds for the dogs. Thank you so much for your support! 🙌🏻🐾
Rescue Paws was also invited by Stichting DierenLot to a meeting on Bonaire with several foundations, where a wonderful cheque was presented. Thank you for the invitation and support! 🐾
Student Norah from the Dr. Albert Schweitzer School completed her internship with us. Thank you for your help and dedication! 🙌🏻🐾
We’re also happy to welcome a new sponsor: our volunteer Mariëlle! 🥳
💛 Fester thanks everyone for the donations and support. Have a wonderful week and see you next time! 🐾

𝗠𝗘𝗘𝗧 𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗣𝗘𝗟 ✨
𝗛𝗲𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂! 💛 My name is Scalpel. I know… it’s a bit of a strange name. I didn’t pick it myself!
I’m 3 years old and used to wander around the Brievengat area with an ingrown ring stuck in my neck. That was very painful. Thankfully a vet removed it and because it was done with a surgical knife, they gave me the name Scalpel. The good news is that everything healed and I feel perfectly fine now! ✨
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗠 𝗜 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘? 🐾
I’m a sweet big girl who loves coming up for head scratches.
🚶‍♀️ I love walks and I walk nicely on the leash.
🧗‍♀️ I’m also very good at climbing and exploring.
🐕 I get along well with other dogs.
🍬 Treats and snacks? Yes please!
Life at the rescue center is okay, but honestly… I would love a home of my own. 💞 A place where I’m loved, can go on walks and simply be with my people. 🏡
💌 𝗗𝗢 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘 𝗔 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗖𝗘 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗠𝗘?
Contact Rescue Paws Curaçao and maybe I’ll become your new best friend.

𝐖𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐲 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐃𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐋𝐨𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭! 🙏🐾
Not only did we receive pallets full of dog food again, we were also invited to Bonaire for a gathering with all DierenLot beneficiaries there. It was amazing to see how many different projects are being supported — from coral and fish to cats and dogs. We were truly impressed by everything that is happening on Bonaire!
It was also great to meet Miriam and Marcel from @kittenrescuecuracao… especially on a different island! 😉
Praxedis and Mirjan also visited @fkk and @animalshelterbonaire. It’s always valuable to exchange experiences with other organizations. One thing that stood out: the dogs on Bonaire seem a bit different from those on Curaçao — often bigger and sturdier! Our Westpointers are definitely a bit slimmer and smaller. Thankfully, Bonaire doesn’t face the same large stray dog problem and dumping sites that we see here, although sadly there is still plenty of animal suffering there as well.
During the gathering we also received an incredible surprise: a cheque for no less than €5000! 🤩
This will allow us to sterilize many more dogs — something that truly makes a huge difference.
A huge thank you to DierenLot for their amazing support and for bringing so many animal welfare organizations together. @dierenbeschermingbonaire it was great seeing you again!
We learned a lot, had wonderful conversations, and shared many laughs. It was such a special visit to our neighboring island. ❤️🐾

UPDATE: We Found a nice foster 🙏💕
🚨🐾 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣 🐾 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣 🐾 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣 🐾 🚨
Please help me..! My name is Gus and I am 25 weeks old. But I already weigh 17 kilos, so I’m not a little one anymore. Two weeks ago I moved to the Netherlands. Exciting!
I arrived with very kind people, I can really feel that! But I have such a tummy ache. And the stress I feel is not helping. What I really want most is some peace and quiet… with a blanket on the couch. Love and cuddles. Just something to drink and food that is good for my tummy.
Things are already getting better though! My poop is becoming firmer and I do that nicely outside. The tests at the vet didn’t show anything unusual.
But where I am now there are quite a lot of children and also another dog. It’s all just too much for me. I growl, snap and bark.
That’s why I would really love to find a nice place where I can get that peace and quiet. And the love and cuddles. A place where I can truly recover, where there are no busy children or other dogs and where I don’t have to deal with anything for a while.
Do you have space (temporarily)? In your home and in your heart? And would you give Gus the rest he needs? Please email us!!
It won’t cost you anything, just love and space. And our eternal gratitude!
