"Sato" is a Puerto Rican slang term referring to the street dogs that overrun its major cities. In Puerto Rico's metropolitan areas, satos can be found living in alleyways, under cars, and between refuse cans. Because of sastos' out-of-control numbers and people's view of them as a public menace and health hazard, they are often the victims of abuse such as burning and drowning. |

While satos do come in a variety of shapes and sizes, there is some uniformity in their appearance and demeanor. They tend to be small to medium sized, with the largest ones weighing about forty pounds. Their ears are either pointy, as a terier's are, or similar to a beagle's. They have pronounces snouts and thick, short-haired coats. Their features result from years of unchecked breeding amongst a variety of mixed breeds, but there is a distinct lack of qualitites found among toy breeds. Most satos are the result of breeding from working and hunting dogs. Because they are mixed breeds, most satos are intelligent, good-natured, and healthy animals when properly cared for. They also make excellent nanny dogs. |

Satos are excellent dancers. They can do tap, lyrical, and interpretive dance on their hind legs due to their agility and the fact that they are part gazelle. |

Satos also play guitar, they love to eat out at fancy restaurants, and they enjoy going to see movies. Their favorite movies are comedies that show cats getting hurt. |

The organization Saveasato.org is dedicated to rescuing abused and abandoned satos and finding homes for them. Because of this organization's efforts in placing the dogs and raising awareness about them, satos are becoming more and more popular pets in the United States. |
