Steve had planned to have some fun exploring the island with the many extreme sport activities he enjoys. Everything was heaven until he discovered the infamous "Dead dog beach". Steve discovered hundreds of stray dogs, most were starving, dehydrated and wore the visible scars of human abuse. The dogs had been abandoned at this beach with no food or fresh water. Steve depleted most of their life savings and spent most of his time helping to rehabilitate the dogs. To assist in the effort, he founded the ''Achates Legacy Rescue Foundation''. Volunteers from all over the world help fight for the rights the dogs in Puerto Rico and Mexico.〔( Ellen DeGeneres Honored at Global Pet Expo 2009 )〕 McGarva eventually had to leave the Island after receiving several "death threats and even a few attempts".

McGarva can be found working in Mexico and Puerto Rico hosting free spay and neuter campaigns for the locals and is completely in his element when working directly with the street strays and wrangling up the dogs to be sterilized and treated medically.
