San Miguel de Allende is a dog-lovers’ town. My family came to SMA in 2010 and fell in love, as so many do. My mother, an artist, and my stepfather, a Mexican, thought this was the perfect blend for them. For a while they lived between California and San Miguel. During every visit my mother rescued abandoned dogs and found them homes. She ran her own rescue organization and always lent a hand to others when she could.

​

They bought "The Field" hoping to build a small retirement ranch, but realized uprooting their lives in California to move to the outskirts of San Miguel de Allende wasn’t their destiny. Now I’m their daughter, trying to continue what they began. Following my mother’s footsteps, I’ve found myself deeply involved in the dog world.

​

We aren’t sure what the future holds for the land, but in the meantime we wanted to provide a secure place for dogs to run off leash. When I first moved here with four dogs in my care, it felt like a game of chess figuring out where I could safely let them burn off energy. We hope you and your dogs enjoy the space!
