The mission of SPCA International is simple but vast: to advance the safety and well-being of animals.
This week Sugar Plum and her mother, Shadow, arrived in the U.S. after a long, complicated and arduous journey from the streets of Baghdad. These two lucky pups worked their way into a permenant spot in the hearts of two Americans serving at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad. This is their homecoming…
Today Romanian dogs are being abused, killed and repeatedly tortured in the most barbaric manner. They are often beaten, cut, poisoned and left for dead in the streets, or placed in small kennels at public pounds to slowly die of thirst and hunger on their own.

Our most recent Shelter Support grant recipient is based right here in NYC, because you don’t have to travel too far to find animals in need, and people who are willing to help. Mr. Bones and Co has been helping animals in need since 2012, in the tri-state area and internationally.
Hi my name is Julie Spendal and I am the newest member of the SPCA International family! I am so happy and so honored to be apart of this organization and to help all of our animals around the globe.
In association with our good friends at Spay Panama, 1,236 dogs and cats were not only sterilized, but received veterinary care and the compassion every animal deserves. And it’s all because of you!
I’ve been SPCAI’s webmaster for over 4 years, and it’s been a privilege to be associated with this wonderful organization. So much so that this past spring, I decided I wanted to devote even more of my time to animal rescue, that’s when I discovered a group of people called Park Heights Animal Welfare Group. These dedicated volunteers go into a rough section of downtown Baltimore 4 times a week to care for several colonies of feral cats and have been doing it for 7 years.
In May, our Operation Baghdad Pups program team was able to ensure some of the most heartfelt reunions – seventeen in all. These dogs and cats that would have otherwise been left to a horrible fate in Iraq are now living it up in North America!
In 2009, we created a group to help the state of the dogs in the local animal shelter here in Moscow, Russia. Our region is continuously overcrowded with stray animals, and the shelter simply could not provide more space for the abundance of animals in need, so a group of volunteers independently came together and began doing what we could for these helpless and defenseless animals. Fittingly, we named our group, “Let’s Help Together”.
