Meet Taco — the definition of a good boy 🐾

This handsome guy is calm, polite, and has the sweetest soul. He walks perfectly on a leash, is already great off-leash, and once he learns his name (he’s still new to it!), we’re sure he’ll be absolutely flawless.

Taco greets everyone — men, women, strangers, friends — like he’s known them forever. He’s quiet, respectful, and has the best house manners. No barking, no marking, no jumping on furniture. He even sits patiently when you take him to the store — unprompted!

What makes Taco  special:
• Calm and relaxed temperament
• Super friendly with all people and dogs
• A+ leash manners
• Quick learner and very food motivated
• Well-behaved at home
• Doesn’t chew or shred things (unless it’s edible 😄)
• Steals hearts wherever he goes 💛

Taco is ready to bring peace, love, and some serious tail wags into someone’s life. Could that someone be you?

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.

  • Do you rescue wild animals too?

    We focus on rescuing dogs and cats, but we can point you in the right direction if you’ve found a wild animal in distress. We recommend contacting:

    Alturas Wildlife Sanctuary in Uvita at +506 2200 3271

  • I found a stray dog / cat. Can you help me?

    For urgent cases, please refer to our Emergency Guidelines on the CONTACT PAGE.

    We are a small, volunteer-run organization with limited resources, but we do our best to help whenever possible. To report a stray animal or find more information, please visit our CONTACT PAGE.

  • I saw a dog / cat on social media up for adoption but can’t find it on the website.

    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?

    Yes! Charlies Angels Resque is officially registered under the legal name Asociación Charlie’s Angels CR, cédula jurídica 3-002-757592.

  • How are you funded?

    We rely entirely on donations from generous individuals and the occasional fundraising. Every contribution makes a big difference. For more informatiopn visit our DONATION PAGE

  • Are Donations Tax-Deductible?

    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.
