On the edge of a spider’s web of dirt roads in south Miami-Dade, sandwiched between the mighty Everglades and an Air Force Reserve base, a man can be seen driving a pickup truck every morning .

His name is Eddie Alvarez, and now retired, his daily life begins with a walk on these back roads to help the curiously large concentration of stray and abandoned dogs that live there.

He stops, fills a few bowls, and dogs emerge from the abandoned, fallow, and actively cultivated fields and tangles. He knows many of them very well, but he doesn’t give them names.

Álvarez short Eddie’s dogsa 501(c)3 that attempts to arrange food, medical care, and possibly adoption or foster care for these homeless dogs.

Talking with NBC 6Alvarez estimates he feeds about 25 dogs each day; not because there are only 25 dogs along these roads, but because he runs out of food before he reaches the others.

“I deworm them, I give them their shots, their boosters, I take care of their flea problems and that sort of thing,” he said. “I think they are God’s greatest gift to man.”

If they live in the area too long, many of these homeless dogs are hit by vehicles, earning the area the nickname “Dead Dog Alley.”

Although they live in junkyard-like surroundings, many are not junkyard dogs. Many are abandoned when their owners can no longer afford to care for them. Alvarez said he noticed twice, following hurricanes, that the number of new dogs in the area suddenly increased.
