Pasita - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
It was a Saturday and Lupita’s family decided to have a picnic and spend the day at the “Paso Ancho” river. They were already there when Lupita arrived and as she was walking towards the group, they asked if the adorable dog following was hers. She turned around and had no idea where that cute playful puppy had come from. She offered her something to eat and with a full belly, the dog was ready to jump in the water and play. She had no intention of leaving and spent the rest of the afternoon with the group, even when Lupita walked around the surrounding areas and asked if anybody knew her. Nobody seemed to recognize her so when it was time to leave, Lupita, despite having a full house with dogs, could not leave her there, especially after she noticed the dog was in heat. She put her in the car and Pasita (named after Paso Ancho River) was off she was for a life change.
Pasita is a gorgeous Belgian Malinois mix female that is about 1.4 years old and weights approximately 18 kilos.
Pasita is an active dog, that loves humans as well as the other four dogs in her foster home, and she likes to chase cats. She enjoys going out on walks and she gets excited when meeting other dogs on the trips, but she is not aggressive towards them. She has no food aggression issues and she shares her toys and sleeping area with the rest of the dogs in the house. She gets stressed when being left all alone in the house for long periods, and she does much better if the other dogs are with her. She prefers company to a solo life. She is used to sleeping in her kennel at night and she will even walk in on her own to nap in it during the day as it is her safe space. Pasita is a sweet, loving girl and we think her ideal home would include another dog and active humans. She’s just a young girl and she still has much to learn and explore…who would like a dog to take on their adventures?
The adoption fee for Pasita is $500 and includes flight, spay, vaccines, and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. If you would like Pasita to join your family, please submit an application on mexpup.com or, if you have any questions or need more information you can email cass@mexpup.com

Fox - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
When Nayeli went for a shopping trip to a street mall in Puerto Vallarta, she saw this dog running in distress, disoriented, thirsty and hungry. The pup was trying to get close to people looking for anyone that would provide her with some food and water, however, nobody seemed to notice her. Nayeli knew that if she didn’t take her to the shelter, the dog would become one of the hundreds of dogs living in the streets. She got the pup and off they drove to the Vet’s office where she was checked and fortunately, besides being underweight and filthy, she tested negative for all scary illnesses. She was treated for parasites, given vitamins and a much-needed wash and off she went to a secure place where she did not have to search for her food.
Fox is a loving Lab mix female dog, about 1.5 years old and weights approximately 20 kilos.
Fox is an extremely affectionate girl. She has so much love to give, and she has a very special soul. She will shower her people with kisses and is very sweet when meeting strangers. She gets nervous when she hears loud noises and tends to bark at people when riding in the car or at dogs when going out on walks. With her history, it isn’t a surprise that she can be a bit protective of her food bowl, her sleeping area and her toys. She lives with about 50 other dogs and just gives a little growl, so they know when she needs her space; however, most of the time she is happy and enjoys being around all the dogs. She just needs a break from them sometimes (I feel like that around humans sometimes too ). She walks well on a leash and loves her daily walks.
The adoption fee for Fox is $500 and includes flight, spay, vaccines, and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. If you would like Fox to join your family, please submit an application on mexpup.com or, if you have any questions or need more information you can email cass@mexpup.com
Solomon - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
Solomon is an absolutely stunning 34kg Weimaraner who is 1 year old. He was found by our friend Berenice who noticed someone had come and tied him to a post in a lot near her house, days and weeks passed and she was feeding him, but nobody ever came back for him. He looked healthy when he was first tied so we presume someone dumped him and tied him up to prevent him from following them home. His temperament is beautiful, he likes tiny dogs and big dogs and he hasn´t shown interest in chasing cats when passing them in the street but we haven´t tested him off leash with cats. He likes meeting people and is a typical big goofy Weimaraner who doesn´t necessarily have the best spatial awareness but does have a very kind heart. We think he might accidentally knock over small children. He´s good on a leash and enjoys walking and hiking and swimming in the river or sea, he sometimes pulls when he is very excited. We would love for Solomon to have a dog friend to play with.
The adoption fee for Solomon is $550 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. If you are ready for Solomon to join your family, please submit an application on mexpup.com or, if you have any questions or need more information you can email cass@mexpup.com

Nala - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever family
A beautiful dog was running thru the streets disoriented, looking for shelter and trying to hide from her abusive owner who would hit her for the slightest reason. A kind neighbor allowed her in their house and went talk to the owner who said he did not want her and was happy to surrender her. The lady tucked her into a nice comfy bed to spend the night and the next day started searching for help; Adriana stepped up and took the dog, got her to the Vet where she got checked, was tested,and given a very much needed wash.
Nala is a sweet beautiful American Pitbull Terrier female dog, about 2 years old and weights approximately 21 kilos.
Nala is just a big cuddly girl; she is affectionate, sweet and loves to welcome people visiting the house. She likes adult women however, based in her story of abuse, it’s not surprising that she does not initially trust adult males and needs time to warm up to them. She enjoys the company of teenagers and children but does not like cats. She gets scared at loud noises (again, past abuse) and is just learning to enjoy car rides. She is not food possessive and will share toys with the other two dogs in her foster home. She loves exercise, her daily walks, and walks well on leash. She has stayed home for long periods of time and is not destructive. Because of her size and being a bit rough when playing, a family with no small children would be best, however, having a sibling dog she can play with, would be ideal.
The adoption fee for Nala is $500 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. If you would like to adopt Nala you can apply at mexpup.com or email cass@mexpup.com to get more information.

Duky - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever family
A cute looking puppy was given away to a little girl by a relative to help her cope with some sad events happening at her early age. The issue was that, she was not fond of dogs and simply than treat them as toys. Soon enough the family, who are not fond of dogs either, got tired of dealing with the active dog and confined him to a balcony on the first floor without access to the house thinking he would entertain himself watching people and cars go by. Irina could not stop thinking about the fate of the dog and decided to ask the family to surrender him as she knew the pup deserved much more. She took him, got him checked by the vet, did the tests for scary illnesses, and then over the following weeks, got shots and had him neutered. She asked us for help to find the dog a loving home so he would have a better life.
Duky is a beautiful Husky mix male dog, that is about 3 years old and weights approximately 19 kilos.
Duky gets along well with adults, teenagers, and young children,…a friend to all humans. He reacts well to people visiting the house, but he does not like cats. After being forced to live outside all the time, he fears thunder and fireworks. He still gets very excited when taken out for walks and wants to pull and run, so we are working on that with him. He is also leash reactive with other dogs, so an experienced owner is a must. He gets stressed if not taken on his daily walks and when left alone for too long. He will need an activity family to help burn this energy. We also think that he will benefit from more training to help him gain confidence. Based on his history and insecurities, he may not be friendly to other dogs, so he should be the only dog in the home.
The adoption fee for Duky is $500 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. If you’re ready for Duky to join your family please submit an application on mexpup.com or if you have any questions or need more information you can email cass@mexpup.com

Waffles - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
PEACE Animals Spay & Neuter clinics are a key to the work being done in the Puerto Vallarta area to end the suffering of animals. These mobile clinics are on the front lines each week going into the communities where help is needed. A while back, during a clinic in the outskirts of town, a dog wandered into the clinic and went straight into a crate. Animals are amazingly smart. This sweet girl was in trouble, needed help and found people that she hoped would do something for her. She was 100% correct. Maria, one of the volunteers at the clinic did all she could to find a foster home for her and at that very moment the pup had a foster and also became a MexPup. She had a bad case of mange (thankfully the non-contagious type) but she still had extremely swollen feet and cracks in the skin all over her body. She was alert and had clear eyes but was extremely weak. Waffles was taken to get vet care and due to the severity of her swollen feet and skin cracks all over her body she remained in the clinic. Once she was stabilized, she moved to the foster home where she started her recovery and new life.
Waffles is an American Staffordshire terrier female about 7.5 years old and currently weighs approximately 22 kilos.
Waffles has been in care for many years now. Sadly, time has continued to tick by, and she’s just been unlucky. When she was younger and finding her way, she was a handful and none of her applications were a good match. As the years passed, I think people saw her post and thought there must be a reason no one else wanted her and so they didn’t inquire or give us a chance to tell them more about her. We really hope that Waffles will finally get her chance. We know there is a great family out there for her somewhere.
Waffles is doing well. She is happy, healthy, and absolutely ready to find her family. In general, Waffles gets along with some dogs, but she would be best as the only animal in the home since she can be possessive of her belongings, including water and food. Being a stray is difficult and some dogs are still fearful of some of the dangers they faced on the streets; Waffles gets very stressed with loud noises, such as fireworks or thunder. We think she would do best with an experienced, confident owner; she is a great dog, but is an alpha so needs guidance & leadership. We are so happy that she has recovered and now, we are excited for her to find a family to call her own. Please share this post so that we can give this lovely girl the great life she deserves.
The adoption fee for Waffles is $450 and includes flight, spay, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Bimba - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
Juanita saw this beautiful dog near her home late at night and she noticed the dog was scared and was trying to hide from two unknown men. Juanita called her and she came to her right away, when the men saw she was with somebody they left without saying a word so Juanita believed they had bad intentions. The pup had a collar on but no tag; Juanita figured the dog was trying to escape from a bad situation, so she decided to help her and took her in. Once she got the chance to check her, she was sure her new rescue had been neglected since she was underweight, her skin was in bad condition, missing hair in some spots, was filthy, had long nails and was full of fleas and ticks. She also looked like she had recently been lactating so she may have been used for illegal breeding. The next morning, Juanita reached out for help via Facebook groups which Carmen & Claudia saw. They stepped in taking her to the Vet where tests were run, and medications were given, and she was ready for a new start.
Bimba is a beautiful American Staffordshire Terrier mix about 4.5 years old. She weights approximately 28 kilos.
Bimba has greatly improved since her rescue, she is a confident girl now that enjoys her daily walks on a leash. She is playful and loves being off leash in safe spaces. She gets a little hyper when there are larger groups of dogs, but she does great with 1 or a maximum of 2 medium to large dogs. Bimba is not very fond of small dogs, especially louder ones, so she needs a home without any small dogs or cats. Bimba has medium energy and is super affectionate with her humans. She also enjoys being lazy at home in a large doggy bed. She loves squeaky toys, plush toys and loves laying in the sun whenever possible. She is not used to spending long periods of time in a crate. We think Bimba would enjoy and benefit from some basic obedience classes as to keep her active and learning.
Her ideal owners would be a family with teenagers or a couple with no kids (and no plans to have any). If the owners have had experience with similar medium to large breeds like her, Bimba would benefit from their leadership and guidance to become the best dog she can be.
The adoption fee for Bimba is $500 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Mia - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
Two helpless puppies were found on the street., our guess is that whoever had the momma, was indifferent to their suffering and just carelessly dumped her littler. When found, Mia was malnourished, filthy and full of fleas; Nayeli knew she had to take the puppies into care. Mia was immediately taken to the Vet for a regular checkup as usual where tests were run, deworming was given and off she went to a safe place to recover and start a new life.
Mia is a highly desirable mutt (the best breed ever) mix with St Bernard about 6 months old. She weights approximately 20 kilos, and our guess is she has more growing to do.
Healthy now, Mia is a beautiful and happy puppy, very social and active; she loves her foster siblings and people visiting the shelter. She has been around cats and rather than being aggressive, she was scared of them. During her daily walks, she can’t help herself but get excited discovering the big world around her. She has lots of energy and when playing, she can be a bit rough not knowing how strong she can be so a family with little kids may not be her ideal home. Mia is a happy puppy that enjoys getting all the love and pets she can get.
The adoption fee for Mia is $550 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Heydi - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
Two helpless puppies were found on the street, our guess is that whoever had the momma, was indifferent to their suffering and just carelessly dumped her littler. When found, Heydi, on top of being malnourished, filthy and full of fleas, had a big cut on her face, probably because of a dog attack; Nayeli just could not help herself but take the puppies into care. Heydi was immediately taken to the Vet for a regular checkup as usual but most important, to have the wound taken care of. Tests were run, deworming was given, antibiotics were prescribed and off she went to a safe place to recover and start a new life.
Heydi is a highly desirable mutt (the best breed ever) mix with St Bernard about 6 months old. She weights approximately 18 kilos, and our guess is she will be large size when fully grown.
Fully recovered now and with a little scar on her face (but who cares, right?), Heydi is a beautiful and happy puppy, very social and active; she loves her foster siblings and people visiting the shelter. She has been around cats and rather than being aggressive, she was scared of them. During her daily walks, she loves exploring and discovering everything there is to see and sniff. She has lots of energy and when playing, she can be a bit rough not knowing how strong she can be so a family with little kids may not be her ideal home. Heydi is a sweet, tender, and affectionate girl that enjoys getting all the love and pets she can get.
The adoption fee for Heydi is $550 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Blanquita - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
Stray dogs do not necessarily roam on the streets; some of them live up in the mountains, especially around the poor areas of town. Nayeli does not know if Blanquita was dumped in the deserted area or if she got out of a house and did not know her way back. In any case, it was clear she needed help. She was underweight, full of fleas and filthy. She was taken to the Vet were a general check up was done, treated for internal and external parasites and tested for all scary illnesses which fortunately came back negative. She was taken into Nayeli’s care and her fate changed for good at that moment.
Blanquita is an American Staffordshire Terrier mix about 6 months old . She weights approximately 14 kilos.
Blanquita is a healthy and happy puppy that loves to play, play, play all day. She loves her foster siblings and people of all ages. She has been around cats and does not react to them. She could be quite shy when meeting new people but her excitement for playing and getting attention is bigger so she lets them get close. She loves her daily walks which are always too short, in her opinion, as she still has more to sniff and discover. She would do great with a back yard and an active family with children or teenagers would be great for her.
The adoption fee for Blanquita is $550 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com
Platano - In a PV foster & looking for a loving FURever home
Platano was born in the outskirts of Puerto Vallarta, in one of the poorest areas around. He was born to a dog that had a family, irresponsible enough not to have her spayed so she got pregnant (unknown how many times). This time she had a litter in which Platano was one of the puppies. The momma was neglected, in bad shape, underweight and full of fleas and ticks so the puppies would have suffered the same fate if a kind soul would not have picked them up and offered them a better chance of life. Nayeli picked the puppies up, took the whole family to the Vet where they were treated for internal and external parasites and the momma was spayed. After running tests to make sure they did not carry any scary illnesses, the puppies went to the shelter for a new start.
Platano is a handsome mix breed (one of the best breeds) about 14 months old. He weights approximately 35 kilos.
Platano is very friendly with all people and loves to please so he tends to get more pets than others. Although he likes little kids, he could be a little bit strong when playing, so we would suggest a home with older kids if any. He gets along with all the dogs and cats in the shelter and enjoys the activity going on, but also loves his alone time and going out for his walks; on the leash (which he does very well). Did we mention he loves car rides ? When someone new comes in the shelter or when he enters a new place, he takes his time to check out the new humans and/or surroundings before coming up to greet them or settling. He is a calm dude that loves humans and will make a great addition to a family.
The adoption fee for Platano is $500 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

APPLICATION RECEIVED (dogs with homes pending, please check back)
(Click on the images to see their albums on Facebook)
Noche - Application received
Noche is a 12kg 18 month old mexican street mix (the best breed). He came into care because Brischa noticed a very scabby dog full of open wounds and sores running around on the highway close to the big tunnel in Puerto Vallarta, she tried to stop the car and grab him but he ran through the tunnel, so she quickly drove through and asked two old men who were walking on the other side if they wanted an easy 500 pesos could they grab the dog that was running through the tunnel - they were able to quickly catch him and stick him in the window of the car luckily before he was hit! Noche had really terrible blood values which allowed his demodex mange to thrive, and he was covered in scales, scabs and blood. Luckily he thrived in care and is now completely healthy and sterilized and ready for his home !
Noche is such a funny dog, he can be a little shy with strangers but he warms up very quickly and gets very attached to the people he loves. He is incredibly playful with other dogs and makes a noise like a dinosaur when he plays which makes for hours of entertainment. He walks well on a leash and loves car rides and adventures, but is a little scared of skateboards. His fur texture is very interesting, kind of a mix of fur and thick hair. We noticed that he occasionally lifted one of his rear legs when he first came into rescue but our vet took a look and ascertained there is no break old or new, his tendons were weak from malnutrition when he was younger so he gets a daily glucosamine supplement to help his joint strength and he barely lifts it anymore.
The adoption fee for Noche is $500 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. If you are ready for Noche to join your family, please submit an application on mexpup.com or, if you have any questions or need more information you can email cass@mexpup.com

A neighbor of the shelter was walking around with this shaggy dog she found wandering on the street and was asking around if anybody knew who it belonged to but people didn’t seem to recognize her so she came to us and asked if we could take her. When we saw the condition, she was in, we immediately said yes. It was obvious she had been neglected for a long time; she was filthy, underweight, full of ticks and fleas and dehydrated. She was taken to the vet where she was treated for parasites, given a much-needed grooming and vitamins in preparation for shots and spay.
Teini is a beautiful small mix breed black female. She is 3 years old and weighs about 4 kilos.
After some time in the shelter, Teini has gained confidence and is showing what a good girl she is. She is very docile, she likes adults, teenagers, and young children. She gets along with the rest of the dogs and barks at cats when she first sees them, but she is not aggressive, and she interacts with them once she knows them. She loves her daily outings and walks well on leash. She is past the puppy chewing but will look for trash bins that have paper in them; maybe she is trying to find out where she came from in those documents? Staff at the shelter simply keep bathrooms and kitchen trash cabinets closed, just in case. She is not toy, food, or sleeping area possessive and her favorite thing is relaxing in her sofa spot with a treat every day. At night, she goes around the shelter to make sure everything is in order before she finds her place to spend the night. Teini is a very smart girl, she likes socializing with other dogs so a family with more dogs would be ideal.
The adoption fee for Teini is $550 and includes flight, spay, vaccines, and full vetting. She will be flying to Vancouver, BC on May 10th. Please submit an application at mexpup.com.

Coffee - Application received
Marilu´s trip to one of the poorest towns on the outskirts of Puerto Vallarta was supposed to be uneventful however, she could not ignore seeing a young boy on the street “playing” with two helpless small dogs while being abusive to them. She went around to ask where the boy lived and why the parents would allow such misbehavior only to find out this was a regular thing that happened every day. She talked to the grandmother of the boy who told her she did not want the dogs since she could not provide for their basic needs, including proper food. They live in a tiny house and dogs were not allowed to be inside, so they basically lived on the street. Marilu took them for a health check and fortunately, despite being malnourished and full of parasites, scary illnesses tests came back negative. She took them into her care on a life-changing adventure.
Coffee is a gorgeous American Staffordshire Terrier mix about 1.5 years old. She weighs approximately 18 kilos.
Coffee enjoys playing with her foster dog siblings, she gets along with cats and does not chase them, walks well on leash, and responds to basic commands such as “sit”, “come”, “stay” and of course her favourite…. “let’s go”. She is friendly but can be a bit shy when she meets new people but shortly after, when she knows it is safe, she comes out of her shell to make sure visitors know what a sweet girl she is. She is very social and adores getting all the love she can get from her humans, but she also likes being surrounded by a pack of dogs. She enjoys relaxing on her bed but also cuddling on her human’s bed while watching her favourite program on TV.
The adoption fee for Coffee is $500 and includes flight, spay, vaccines, and full vetting. She can be on a flight if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Q - Application received
Giving away puppies as gifts is not always the best idea. New owners may seem delighted with the gift until it becomes an inconvenience, or they find out their living situation is not accommodating for the new dog. This is what happened to Q; he was given to an employee of the shelter as a gift by a neighbor and soon he realized that living in a small room at his auntie’s house was not going to work. He then asked Claudia if the puppy could stay in the shelter and she agreed to. Soon after, the young man moved out of town and asked Claudia to keep the puppy while he got settled in his new city, but months went by and she was unable to come back, he surrendered the puppy to Claudia.
Q is a handsome Dachshunds male about 2 years old. He weights approximately 7 kilos.
Q is sweet little guy that gets along with all dogs and cats in the shelter, and he is very friendly with all adults and children who visit the shelter. He has a friendly personality and does not hesitate to share his toys with the rest of his furfriends, however what he loves most is to spend time with the other dogs that live in the shelter. He is active but he also likes to chill in his favourite spot while suntanning. He loves going out on his daily walks and behaves well when walking on a leash. We would like to see him go to an active family or to a home with other dog so he can play however, he does not need a big space as he’s just a little dude.
The adoption fee for Q is $550 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Guera - Application received
Guera wandered the streets for some time before Claudia saw her and was able to take her in. She did not know if Guera ever had a family but it was clear that being in the physical condition she was, she needed help. She was right away taken for a Vet check and, besides being underweight and full of ticks and fleas and being anemic, none of the scary illnesses tested positive so she was sent to the shelter with medication for parasites and some vitamins to pump her back to health.
She is a beautiful whippet type mix (likely with many other things) about 2 years old, weighting approximately 15 kilos.
Guera is a well-behaved young girl that gets along with the rest of her foster dog and cat siblings. We think Guera would be very happy with or without another animal in the home, but probably the happiest with another chill dog or cat. She loves her daily walks and enjoys being able to sniff around discover new tracks. She is past her chewing stage and is gentle when playing with teenagers and other dogs with toys. She gets excited when someone new comes to the shelter, but she will let the other dogs do their crazy dances before she comes over to say hello. She is the mellow one of the pack and is just fine letting others get the attention first. Once every has gotten their share, she then gets close for petting and giving unconditional love; she is even-tempered, intelligent and affectionate. She likes to chill in her favourite area out of the hustle and bustle to watch the other pups play and enjoys sunbathing. Guera would be a great addition to an active family with older children (maybe around 10 and up but a bit younger could be fine if they are calm kids) and/or teenagers since she loves running around and going on adventures. She is really chill and we could imagine a home with too much going on all the time might not be her thing. This is not because we think she would react negatively, we just think she would be happier somewhere with people who are active yet chill. Guera is a wonderful girl, her soft yet calm personally really steals your heart, and we think that in a home of her own where she can be a bit more of the focus of attention she will start to show more of her goofy side to her forever family.
The adoption fee for Guera is $550 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Macy - Application received
Steph and her husband were driving back home at night on a very busy highway when they saw this beautiful white dog running back and forth across the highway, very disoriented and in great distress. They passed by but Steph could not stop thinking she could have done something since the dog was in great danger of being run over, so she asked her husband to take the first U-turn and come back to help her. Macy was still trying to avoid the high-speed traffic and she seemed relieved when Steph got out of her car and invited her in. They took her home, fed her, and placed a comforter on the floor where she could sleep. Macy knew she was safe and slept all night long. The next day she was taken to the Vet for a health check and tests for all the scary illnesses, which came back negative. Steph wanted to make sure her family if she had one, knew she was safe but after posting her for weeks in social media groups and posters along the streets, nobody claimed her. It was very disheartening to learn she had been abandoned.
Macy is a beautiful “great Mexican mutt” about 3 years old. She weighs approximately 18 kilos.
Macy is a well-behaved young girl that gets along with other dogs and cats as well as adults and children of all ages. She likes to be the first one welcoming visitors in her foster home, likes to play with the ball, and walks great on a leash while enjoying long walks. She is housebroken and does not damage furniture inside the house; however, she can be quite rough with her toys thinking that a stuffed animal looks better without an arm or head. She is smart and learns commands quite fast. She has a friendly personality and enjoys activities to lower her mid-energy level, but she also loves cuddling on the couch with her favourite person where she feels safe and loved.
The adoption fee for Macy is $500 and includes flight, spay, vaccines, and full vetting. She can be on a flight if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Nebula - Application received
She had a family…nope, pretty sure that isn´t the correct word. She had an owner that tied her and another dog to a tree on their property. They were starving in plain sight, but nothing was done. Not sure how you come home day after day and watch your dogs slowly waste away. A relative reached out to ask for help, but they were owned and so began the dance. What can be done when there is a horrible situation, but it falls short (in some eyes) of abuse. Thankfully the relative found a group of like-minded locals that went as a unit to speak to the owner. After a conversation, they were able to get him to surrender the dogs (YAY!).
Nebula is approximately 2 years and now weighs a healthy 21 kilos.
There are lots of wonderful things to share about Nebula, but you should know that she is deaf. It certainly doesn´t define her, but it definitely makes her extra special. We believe she has been deaf since birth. She´s very friendly with everyone she meets on walks even though we know she was starved and abused terribly. She is a bit uncertain when strangers enter her foster home, but just needs a bit of time to know that all is ok (she does not show any aggression). Despite all of that she suffered, she has put the past behind her. When she got healthy, Nebula became a very playful and lively dog who loves her toys. She would do great with an active family as she has the energy to burn. We also think she would do best in a home with another playful dog so she has a companion when her people are gone. Nebula is fine with cats, but she can pester them a bit too much. This friendly pup can get excited and clumsy, so a family with older children would be best. She is very smart, understands some hand signals, and is food motivated…so will do great in a home that will continue to train her. She sleeps in her crate at night, walks well on a leash (sometimes still pulls toward exciting things), and is house-trained (but with the change in climate will probably need a bit of guidance). She’s finally ready to take back the puppyhood that was stolen from her. The only thing she's missing is a wonderful forever family that it's prepared to receive all of her love and give all their love to her. Please share Nebula´s story so her forever family knows she is ready and waiting for them.
The adoption fee for Nebula is $450 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. She can be on a flight to Vancouver on January 16th, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Almendra - Application received
Almendra was rescued, but the person that took her into care pushed her into the hands of someone else. It was a beyond frustrating situation. Rescuing a dog isn´t taking it off the street and dumping it on someone else. The new caregiver did her best to provide for Almendra, but she didn´t really have the ability to provide her a forever home. She took the responsible route by reaching out to others and asking for help. That is how this sweet girl ended up in the care of Claudia.
We think she is a Podenco Andaluz mix that is about a year old and weighs approximately 20 kilos.
Almendra is a gentle and sweet girl. She adores human attention and will often jump up to give you a big hug (which she will need to be taught is not always polite) but she does it out of love and joy to be around people. It is hard to put Almendra’s personality into words, she is the kind of dog you meet and always remember. She is smart and has a medium to high energy level. She will do best with active people who can ensure she gets her daily exercise not only physically, but also mentally with training, and things like puzzle bowls, kongs, etc. She would be thrilled to enjoy nights cuddled up on the couch with her people, and is not go go go all the time, but will need her exercise and brain challenges to ensure she is the best dog she can be. As they say, a tired dog is a behaved dog. She likes to play with her foster siblings and caretakers. She gets along with cats too. Her daily walks give her the most joy and are the highlight of her day; she spends the rest of her day chilling at her favourite spot playing on and off with her passing-by friends. She shares her food bowl and toys well with the other dogs. Almendra would do well in a home with kids but just due to her liking to jump to give hugs we would probably say kids who are a little older so that she doesn't knock them over. She would be happy to be in a home with another dog but it´s not an absolute must, so long as she gets the attention she wants from her people and has other interactions with dogs such as with friends.

Channel - Application received
This is a long one but please read and PLEASE SHARE. This sweet girl really needs to find her forever home ! We are excited to introduce you all to this sweet and special girl.
Channel is a approx 5 year old bully breed girl weighing in at about 40 pounds but could definitely gain some weight and muscle.
She is the kind of dog that would squash anyone's misconceptions on pitbuls and other bully breed dogs, that is truly how wonderful and special she is.
Channel live with a lady and 3 other dogs. The lady had a bed for her and gave her food, but she just didn't have the money to give her vaccines or sterilize her, the lady contacted Nayeli and told her that due to life or death problems she had to leave Vallata and couldn't take her. She told them that she would leave the dogs locked up in the house, and so Nayeli went and took them.
Soon after taking in Channel they realized her wobble. The vets said that Channel would have had distemper at some point in her life. For those that don't know, distemper is a terrifying disease that is often fatal and that affects the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and central nervous systems. Often dogs don't survive it, but when they do they typically will have some sort of neurological symptom such as a tick or twitch. Channel's tick is very apparent and it leaves her wobbling as she walks. She can still walk on all 4 legs and has full function of her entire body, but it takes her time to get around. Nonetheless she is a happy girl, full of life and love.
Channel lives with 50+ other dogs right now and gets along great with everyone. She is sweet and kind when new people visit and will snuggle up to strangers with no problem. Being with so many dogs, Channel will often get knocked over by the rambunctious pups, so she tries to stay out of the hustle and bustle and will find nice corners of sun to tan in. Initially Nayeli though she may be happier in the quiet away from all the other dogs, but when she seperated Channel from all of them she cried for her friends. Once Nayeli brought her back out to the pack she instantly stopped. It's very clear that Channel adores the companionship of other dogs. We would love to see her go to a home with another dog.
We are unsure of how she would do with cats but could cat test her. Even if she didnt like them much she wouldn't be able to get to a cat quick enough.
With having so many dogs in care it can be hard for Channels people to be able to focus a ton on building up her strength. We think that with regular controlled exercise and some weight and muscle gain Channels tick could improve decent amount. Usually a distemper tick can take a lot of energy from the dog which means they do need to eat more. Channel could do putting on at least 10 pounds. The sooner this girl can get out of the shelter and into a home the sooner she can start to thrive.
Channel is a mellow and sweet girl. She is not difficult to care for and can live her daily life completely normal. She is not 100% house trained but is not at square one. She will need a home with not a lot of stairs or with someone who can lift her up and down them or better yet get her a little harness and help her walk up and down them on her own - that sure would help her build up some muscle. She would be happiest in a home with another dog and with people who could be with her often. She is such a chill girl and would make anyone who takes her unconditionally happy and full of love. We know that physically she may take a tiny bit extra work but it would be all worth it. It's hard to really explain Channel and her wobble in a bio without making it lag on but I would be more than happy to chat with anyone over the phone to explain her more and give a better picture to anyone interested !
We have had a wonderful person who has met Channel and loved her but is not the right home for her offer to donate 50 dollars a month for a year to her new family to help pay for Channels food.
Channel is spayed, vaccinated and tested for all major diseases. Her adoption fee of $400 covers all the medical and her flight. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com if you are interested in Channel

Moka -Application received
At her young age, Moka knew how hard it was to survive on the streets while she wandered around looking for food and water. She was malnourished, filthy, and covered with fleas. There are just too many dangers for a small puppy out there, so a good soul decided to take her in and the first thing was to take her to the vet where tests were done, a medicated bath given, and eventually vaccines. Once they were sure she was ready, he took her home to nurse her back to health.

Alma - Application received
Alma is a 1 year old STUNNING female street dog mix (we would love to hear guesses on her breed - she is very striking) who came into care when our lovely friend found her abandoned and terrified at only 3 months old.
She is now just about 21kg and ready for her next chapter and forever home. Alma is incredibly sweet but quite shy with humans she doesn´t know, she takes a day or two to warm up to strangers but she doesn´t bark or act aggressively, she will always rather hang back and avoid a situation that feels stressful, she likes to observe new people from a couple of meters away until she understands they are friends. It helps that she is a massive foodie so winning her over is not too tough!
Alma is incredibly dog friendly and always the first to join in a game of chase or wrestling, she loves meeting dogs she doesn´t know and loves to play in our yard hunting for iguanas to chase with her doggy friends (she also loves chasing the chickens that walk around the house so we think we can safely assume a cat free home is best).
Alma is a lot more confident walking on a leash in town if she has a friend with her, so we would love for her to go to a home who already has at least one dog. She really has come on leaps and bounds, when she first came into care she was very shut down and would cower underneath chairs or even the seats in the car, now one of her favourite things is car rides and going to the beach to run around and frolic.
Alma loves cuddling and kissing but is perfectly happy having down time in her crate, she often goes in there to chill out. She is such a sweet soul that is looking for someone to support her in continuing to come out of her shell. She loves being active and much prefers hiking trails or running on the beach or at the river to the busy streets of the city.
Adoption fee for Alma is $500 and it includes spay, vaccines, full vetting and flight. Alma can fly into Vancouver, if an adoptive home is found

Akela - Aplication received
Behind a lot of the stray dog’s stories there is an irresponsible owner and Akela’s story is one of those many. Claudia was driving by this poor neighborhood in the outskirts of Puerto Vallarta and could not ignore this beautiful girl trying to cross the street without supervision. She asked around if the pup had a family only to find out she lived with her mom in a tow truck mechanic’s shop. The mechanic had the mom and never took the time to get her spayed. As she was allowed to roam the streets, she kept getting pregnant and he would give away all the pups without any remorse. It only took a minute to Claudia to decide to change the little pup’s life, so she picked her up and asked the Mom’s owner if she could have the puppy and also have the Mom spayed. He said yes and off she went to take care of both. Akela was checked by the vet where she was de-wormed and testes were done; thankfully everything came back negative and Akela was ready for her new life.
Akela is a beautiful Aussie Shepherd mix. Who is about 11 months old. She weights approximately 22 kilos.
This cutie gets along with all the dogs and cats in the shelter as well as adults and children of all ages. She is very sweet and loves to play as all puppies her age do; she really enjoys her daily walks, sniffing all and every area she walks by to make sure she is not missing anything. Akela is a smart girl and true to her breed, she will need mental and physical work to help her be her very best self. She enjoys sharing toys with the other dogs and has not shown to be possessive of her people, food or sleeping area.
The adoption fee for Akela is $550 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Harvey Dent - Application received
~ Harvey Dent is still looking for his FURever home, please look the beauty inside him and not his damaged face. Whoever did that to him will have to live with it while Harvey Dent has forgiven and forgotten. Now he only wants to have a family he can love and call his own ~
Harvey Dent has a very sad story but thankfully, it is just that…. a sad history but now he has a bright future. He had an owner who didn’t take care of him at all and one day (we want to think it was by accident) he said the pup was hit on the right side of his face with a shovel, making him lose part of the skin on his upper lip exposing his teeth. Fortunately, the hitting was not hard enough to break the bone. Lydia saw the resulting injury and immediately asked if she could take the pup to the Vet for care. The original plan was a few nights in the clinic and then the owner wanted him back as he said that he loved him (hum…just pondering that statement after viewing the photos). After a few days and a few conversations, the owner agreed that it was best for Harvey Dent to get the care he needed, and the owner agreed he wasn´t up to the challenge so Harvey Dent was surrendered. Claudia had no space, but she found a way to take him into care where he started on his way to healing both physically and emotionally. Yes, Claudia is amazing!
This good-looking Shepard mix is 1-year-old approximately 1-year-old weighing about 21 kilos.
He is now a healthy and happy young dog waiting for the first opportunity he can to play with other dogs. Harvey Dent doesn´t live in the past. He´s a big fan of getting love and attention from all the people around him. He tried to be alpha when he first arrived in Claudia’s care, so she hired a trainer that worked with him on the issue. He now gets along with dogs and cats as well as adults and children. Because of his history, personality, and tendency to be the alpha, he needs to have a parent that will lead him the right way. He is past his chewing stage and will share his food and sleeping area with his foster siblings. He can be a little possessive with his toys but will not be aggressive. He walks great on a leash and enjoys the outdoors so an active family would be ideal since he loves going hiking and enjoying water adventures.
The adoption fee for Harvey Dent is $500 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Brutus - Application received
Brutus was rescued from the streets where he wandered every day looking for food. He was malnourished, dehydrated, and very skinny. His rescuer took him to the Vet and fortunately, tests for all scary illnesses came back negative so he was given deworming, and, vitamins, and off he was sent to the start of his new life !
Brutus is a handsome Doberman male who weighs about 31 kilos. He is approximately 4 years old.
He is a sweet and gentle big boy and is great with adults, teenagers, and young children as well as other dogs, small or large.

He really enjoys getting soaked and playing with the hose when watering the backyard. He is well-behaved and likes to share his toys but he can be a bit food protective. Although he has not been exposed to cats, Brutus loves to meet new people and socialize. He has gained confidence now that he knows he lives in a secure environment and is loving his life, especially when he goes on car rides.
The adoption fee for Brutus is $450.00 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines and full vetting. He can be on a flight into BC or Alberta, if an adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com

Bart - Application received
Claudia saw that two puppies were abandoned in an alley and could not help herself but take them into her care. Too many dangers await for a pair of helpless puppies being by themselves on the street. As usual, the first stop was the Vets office where they were checked and fortunately, despite being full of fleas and ticks as well as being dehydrated and malnourished, no serious illness were there. They were de wormed and prescribed antibiotics and vitamins and sent to a new start in life.
illnesses Bart is an adorable Golden retriever mix puppy about 10 months old. He weighs approximately 23kg kilos (50ish pounds). He likely won't pass 60 pounds Being a puppy still and being Golden, Bart has a lot of energy and loves to play and run around the shelter chasing and being chased by other dogs however, his favourite area to play with the residents is the cat area where he can play with them all day long. He is a happy puppy that loves his humans. Bart can be a little bit shy at first but is as sweet as can be. We think that he knows that if he plays the shy card people will lure him with treats so that they can say hi. He warms up very quickly. Some things in the outside world can be new and a little scary to Bart sometimes, as they can be for lots of puppies, so he looks forward to having his people help his confidence grow with exposure to new things. Bart would really especially love a dog sibling he can learn the ropes from. We think that having a confident dog sibling would make Bart just follow in their lead! He loves his toys which he will share with others. Bart is looking for a forever family and can be on a flight into Vancouver or surrounding once an adoptive home for him is found The adoption fee for Bart is $550 and includes flight, neuter, vaccines, and full vetting. He can be on a flight if a foster or adoptive home is found. Please email cass@mexpup.com or submit an application on mexpup.com Simba: Has been adopted !
Meet Simba! This sweet boy had a family and a flight booked and just a few days before his flight they backed out. We have received many inquiries for him but when we pursue them no one replies which we are so confused about as this boy is truly a treat and will bring so much happiness to whoever ends up adopting him. Simba is a 59 pound, 2 year old golden retriever mix. He was rescued from the street, we found him wandering outside a Costco. He was thin and had parasites. He has since received treatment and been put on a meal plan to gain weight. He is doing much better now! Simba has been described as a sweet, docile boy. He has been doing great with both on leash and off leash training. He is super affectionate to everyone he meets at the shelter including strangers and children. Simba loves playing with other dogs but we have noticed that he tends to be a bit too much for SOME larger male dogs, he loves to play like he is a puppy and is super goofy - some of our larger male dogs sense his passiveness and pick on him and bully him with literally no instigation from Simba whatsoever! Not all of our males as some of the large males do still enjoy playing with him but there are a couple who are a little more dominant that try and push him around but he doesnt give them any pushback so we hope to get him moving soon so he can be in a happier environment. Therefore we think that a home with larger female dogs, or a passive male or any gender small dog is best suited for him. He loves small dogs and is such a gentle player with them never taking it too far. He loves playing with larger females too and his best friend is our husky girl Deysi. He knows his size and acts accordingly. He has not been exposed to cats so a cat free household would be best just due to his excitability. Simba has a medium to high energy level, an ideal home for him would have a large yard or space for him to run around in. He deserves a family that can provide him with the daily exercise he will need and will bring him along on all of their adventures. He would also do really well with children in the home. If you are looking for an adventure buddy then this beautiful golden boy may be the companion for you. Simba can be on our next flight into BC once an adoptive home is found Adoption fee covers neuter, vaccines, flight and full vetting

Kira: Application pending
Meet Kira ! A gorgeous 3 year old, husky, white shepherd mix of sorts. Kira was being kept on a persons patio and was being neglected, laying out in the hot son in mexico - no place for a dog with as much fur as her ! She was skinny and dirty, but once Nayeli and her team took Kira into care she started to get healthy and blossom into the beautiful dog she is. Kira is an amazing dog. She loves people and very happily greets strangers who come to the shelter she is in. She also interacts with children daily as young as aged 3 and is sweet although sometimes forgets her size so kids a little older may be a better option. Kira does well on walks, and is an extremely intelligent dog. She has no food, toy or sleeping area possession or aggression. If she really loves a person she may get a little jealous if other dogs come to get attention while she is getting it but she does not fight she just gives them a little snap to tell them off. This can be corrected. She is a very loyal dog. Kira LOVES attention so much that sometimes when you arent giving it to her she will give you little love bites on your butt as her "fun game" of getting you to focus on her. She walks well and leash, she may pull a little sometimes but things like an easy walk harness can help correct that. Kira loves car rides and LOVES water. As any husky/ shepherd type dogs, Kira has energy, so she would be happiest in an active family, and a family who has a yard she can run and entertain herself in while they are busy. She currently lives with over 50 other dogs and would be happy with other dogs, although she would also likely do fine alone if she had lots of attention from her people ! Whoever adopts Kira will be showered with love and loyalty from this beautiful and special girl. Kira can be on a flight into Vancouver once an adoptive home is found. Her adoption fee is $450 and it includes her flight, spay, vaccines, full vet testing. Please email cass@mexpup.com or apply on mexpup.com if you are interested in bringing Kira into your home ! Paris: application pending
Meet Paris! Paris is a 7 month old, Siberian husky mix, currently weighing around 44 pounds. Paris was rescued from her previous owner. She received treatment for parasites and ticks and is doing much better now. She will likely be a medium - large sized dog and need daily exercise. Paris has been described as a sweet, docile girl. She has been doing great with both her on-leash and off-leash training. She loves to greet everyone that comes into her home, strangers say she is a very calm, loving dog. Paris currently has 24/7 access to the outdoors, therefore her new family would need to establish the bathroom areas in her new home. She has not been exposed to cats, however given her calm demeanour this could be a possibility. Paris would do best in a family with little ones as she loves to be around children. A home with a big garden or space for her to run around in would be ideal. Another dog in the family would also be a bonus for this girl as she gets along with everyone. This beautiful girl will no doubt be a loyal companion to you forever. She deserves a home where she will receive the same love she gives to everyone, and a family who will include her on their adventures. She can be on a flight into Vancouver within the month if an adoptive home is found. Adoption fee covers spay, vaccines, flight and full vetting Please inquire or submit an application on mexpup.com if interested
Deysi: Has been adopted !
Meet Deysi ! A stunning 2 year old 45 pound husky. This stunner is living in hot hot Mexico and has the opportunity to fly to Calgary or Vancouver depending on where she can find a home. She is dying to head up North somewhere colder where she can have cold winters and she is hoping there is a home who is looking for a sweet and active girl. Deysi was found by Yvonne’s team hungry and scavenging for food in the street. This girl loves people, she will greet whoever comes into the shelter with hugs and kisses. She is not a shy girl. Deysi interacts with 3 children daily ages 2, 8 and 11. She is great with them but does like to jump up for hugs so the only thing we would say is she may knock a non dog savvy kid over, but purely with love. Deysi lives with 92 other dogs of all ages and sizes and gets along with everyone. Cats are unknown. This little miss is active. She needs a family who will both physically and mentally stimulate her. She is a working breed after all. She is a chewer and will find shoes left around as well as will destroy a stuffy toy like her life depends on it. Deysi will bark at dogs she doesnt know on walks. Not aggressively, as we said she lives with lots of dogs and is friends with them all, but she will need her owner to work on correcting her excitement of seeing other dogs that she doesn't know. She’s just a sassy girl who’s got something to say ! Nayeli one of the workers at Yvonne’s rescue said: “Deysi has a lot of energy, wants to go running, likes to play with a ball or other object that can be thrown at them, when she goes in the car and sees people or dogs, she barks at them, she is very affectionate with the people she knows and those she does not know, she approaches to smell them and later he wants hugs. When people enter the house she will bark to attract attention because she wants pets.” Deysie would prefer a home where her people aren't gone for too long or where her people can get her nice and tired before they leave as when people leave she pulls the husky card and will speak and howl. Deysi is careful with small kids but does love to play so kids over 8 may be a best bet however not a dealbreaker for a dog savvy family, or better yet a husky savvy family ! She only does her business on the patio but has constant access so in a new home may need some reminding. Deysi would love a family with a place where she can go running, where she has young people or teenagers and also people that take her to explore and travel. She likes to eat a lot. This girl wants a lot of love, she is a noble and intelligent dog, she adapts well and Nayeli wants people to know just to give her time to meet new places and people. Deysi is healthy, spayed, vaccinated and fully vet tested. Her adoption fee of $450 covers everything including flight. If interested please either inquire or submit an application on Mexpup.com

Rosie - RIP May 9, 2023
Rosie’s road to rescue began when Ivan found her in Col. Valentín Gómez alone, tiny, dirty and covered in ticks and fleas. He asked the kids playing nearby if she was their puppy, or if they knew where her home was. They said he had just appeared there that day, so he reached out to Chelsea for help. Chelsea had so many other things going on, but seeing the condition the puppy was in, she couldn’t say no. Ivan took her home that night and then took her to the Vet the next day. After a long bath, the removal of so many ticks and fleas and all the other tests and treatments, Ivan picked her up and brought her to Chelsea, who fostered her until another foster was found. There were three big dogs and one small dog in her foster home when Rosie first arrived as just a little pup. She was a bit shy at first, but she quickly won the hearts of the dogs and the humans. She settled in, learning how to be a good puppy and adapting to all the changes. Rosie grew into a beautiful brindle girl with a winning personality! Rosie is about 1 year old and she weighs about 22 kilos.
As she grew larger, her confidence in the foster home grew and she discovered the joy of having her own pack, while still carrying some of the fear from her experience on the streets when she would go for walks. She used to react with a bit of fear when people got too close on the walks, but with time she has improved greatly. Given the opportunity to meet people, she always warms up (especially if there are treats involved). Rosie loves to run, to play (with dogs or toys), to explore and to enjoy life. She would do well in a home with other dogs or cats. We don't think a home with small children would be a match, but older dog savvy kids would be fine. Her start was certainly challenging, but she is now a gorgeous girl that will continue to blossom in the care of a family.
Rosie has grown into a lovely pup and is going to make a wonderful forever dog for some lucky humans. Please share her story so that they know she is ready and looking for them. The adoption fee for Rosie is $550 and includes flight, spay, vaccines and full vetting. She can be on a flight, if a foster or adoptive home is found.
