🌳 Meet Alani – Small But Mighty! 🌳
Alani may be the tiniest of the trio, but don’t let her size fool you -  this little girl is packed with personality!
She’s one of the puppies we recently rescued after they were abandoned by a bridge. Since their first safe days were spent in a local wood workshop, we named the whole litter after trees … and Alani’s name (Hawaiian for orange tree) suits her perfectly.
Weighing in at just 900 grams (about 2 lbs), Alani is expected to grow into a petite pup of around 6–8 kg. She’s curious, brave, and full of charm — always the first to explore something new and the last to say no to cuddles.
This little sweetheart is looking for a loving home where she’ll be safe, spoiled, and adored — just as she deserves.
Currently fostered in Rivas / Perez Zeledon — but open for adoption nationwide (and even internationally)!
Ready to meet your tiny forest fairy with that adorabkle cross on her chest?

FAQ
Where are you located / Is there a shelter I can visit?
We are a foster-based rescue, which means we operate without a shelter or office. Every animal we help is cared for in a foster home. Most of our fosters and volunteers are located in and around San Isidro de El General, Pérez Zeledón, in the Southern Zone of Costa Rica.
Can I visit the animals available for adoption?
Yes! Once your application is approved, we’ll coordinate a meet-and-greet with the foster home. Â

There are two possible reasons:
1. We haven’t had time to upload the animal to the website, but it may still be available.
‍
2. The animal is in a foster-to-adopt trial or has already found a home. You’re still welcome to apply using our general adoption application. Then we can match you with a similar dog / cat.Are you a officially registered non-profit organization?

Unfortunately, we can't issue tax-deductible receipts for donations made to our Costa Rican Bank Account or PayPal.
However, we’re supported by Friends of Charlie’s Angels Costa Rica, Inc., a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in the U.S. This allows U.S. donors to make tax-deductible contributions to support our rescue work in Costa Rica. Â
