Potcake Place K9 Rescue

A volunteer-run dog rescue in the Caicos Islands offering adoptions and beach outings with homeless "Potcake" pups to socialize them.

Tips from the community

Where: Potcake Place, Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Like something out a dream, Potcake Place allows guests to take rescue puppies to the local beach as a way to get them more comfortable with humans. Many of the homeless “potcakes” (mixed breed dogs from the Caribbean) are wary of humans and therefore less likely to be adopted. Short interactions with kind people help them come out of their shell and trust humans for the first time. Time spent with these puppies gives them a better chance at finding a forever home, and you get to take an adorable puppy with you to the beach with you. Win-win.
