Amigos de Animales is a non-profit organization based in Boquete, Chiriquí, Panama, dedicated to promoting animal welfare in the community and surrounding areas. Their primary mission is to provide low-cost spaying and neutering services for dogs and cats, aiming to control the animal population and improve the overall health and well-being of pets and strays.


Since its establishment in 2005, the organization has sterilized over 30,000 animals through monthly, financially subsidized clinics. These clinics are staffed by volunteers and Panamanian veterinarians, ensuring that no animal is turned away, regardless of the owner's ability to pay.


A shining example of community support in this mission is Mike’s Global Grill, a well-loved restaurant in Boquete that has been an unwavering ally in the fight for animal welfare. For over a decade, Mike’s Global Grill has generously donated pizzas to feed the volunteers at the monthly spay and neuter clinics. Owners Michael and Heidi are deeply committed to the cause, actively supporting Amigos de Animales and standing as passionate advocates for animal welfare. Their ongoing contributions have helped fuel the dedicated team working tirelessly to improve the lives of countless animals.

Beyond sterilization services, Amigos de Animales also engages in educational outreach to promote responsible pet ownership and general animal welfare. They maintain feeding stations around the community and have a food assistance program to help local families struggling to provide for their pets, especially during difficult times.

The organization relies heavily on donations and volunteer support to continue its operations. Community involvement—such as the dedication shown by Mike’s Global Grill—proves that small acts of kindness can have a lasting impact. From fundraising efforts to hands-on support at clinics, every contribution helps further the mission of improving animal welfare in Boquete.
