**Rescue of Malnourished Dogs in Campos Neighborhood**
In a recent operation, four severely malnourished dogs showing signs of neglect were rescued from a residence in Tijuana. The local authorities uncovered this case of animal cruelty when executing a search warrant granted by a Control Judge. The intervention was directed by the State Prosecutor’s Office who acted upon solid evidence of abandoned dogs in the area of Colonia Campos.
The search, which was conducted on Rosales Street by the Special Prosecutor’s Office for Environmental and Animal Crimes, unfortunately also led to the discovery of a deceased canine at the same location. The authorities included a prosecutor, assistant, and three State Investigation Agency officers, all of whom ensured that the living dogs were removed and taken to a safe facility. They are now receiving necessary medical care and nutrition to aid their recovery.
The State Prosecutor’s Office is urging the community to report instances of animal abuse to help protect animals and ensure their well-being.

New data have emerged spotlighting a concerning rise in animal abandonment, particularly in urban areas. Shelters are reportedly reaching capacity much faster, prompting calls for increased community awareness and stronger animal protection legislation. Animal welfare organizations have emphasized the importance of community involvement in reporting cases of neglect and responsibly adopting pets to mitigate the growing crisis.
Research into the causes of this trend points to socio-economic factors and a lack of public awareness regarding the responsibilities of pet ownership. Efforts are now being made to increase education on proper pet care and the importance of sterilization programs to control the pet population.
These recent incidents underscore the need for continued vigilance and action to combat animal cruelty and abandonment, fostering a society where animals can live without fear of neglect or abuse.
