Masha, female, 9 months old. Still in Cozumel MX.

Clean bill of health šŸ«¶šŸ¼ā¤ļø
She was healthy and owned, but constantly escaped home and the last time we found her she was hit by a car.

Xrays found no fracture, but blood work did suggest some fisure that we werent able to find. No limping nor anything.

She is an escapist. But solvable with good training.
Runner. High energy dog. Super cute and loving.
Good with other dogs.
Not sure with cats. Masha loves water so access to water or water sports would be great.

Luna, female, approx 6 yrs, 8 kgs.

Luna is still in Cancun at a foster ā€œLuna, but we had to rescue her using a humane trap because she was extremely fearful and wouldn’t let anyone near her. In fact, she has only recently started allowing us to pet her.

She gets along well with other dogs and cats, but when we first tried taking her for a walk on a leash, she completely froze, so we haven’t tried again. We’re not sure if she’s ready to travel by plane yet, but she is also available for adoption, and if someone is willing to help her, that would be wonderful.

Luna used to live alone in an empty lot. She would only come out at night, when there were no people around, to look for food. Neighbors told us that they would sometimes hear her crying, and that she stayed there through the rain, heat, and everything else, always hiding. That’s why we had to rescue her with a trap. We even shared the rescue video in our posts.

She is currently in a foster home with other dogs, and they are working with her. It’s their first time caring for a case this fearful and distrustful, but she has already made great progress.

If she were to be adopted, her new home would need to be completely secure, with a fully enclosed yard and no possibility of escape.ā€

PICA - female/10kgs, approx 1.7 yrs old
Available for adoption Lower Mainland/Okanagan/Sunshine Coast. Must apply online: https://tacodog.ca/adoption-application/

Pica is simply an amazing little dog. She is sweet, gentle, affectionate, and incredibly loving. Her photos speak for themselves, but everyone who meets her in person falls even more in love with her wonderful personality.

Seven months ago, she left life on the streets behind. Today, at 1 year and 6 months old, she is still waiting for the chance to find a family of her own.

She loves cuddles, enjoys being around people, walks beautifully on a leash, and gets along very well with other dogs. She is a small-to-medium-sized dog, weighs approximately 10 kg (22 lbs), and is spayed, fully vaccinated, and dewormed. She has also tested negative for Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, and heartworm disease.

Pica is currently living in a foster home, where she has been showered with love, care, and affection. We are incredibly grateful to the family who opened their home and hearts to her. ā¤ļø However, as the name implies, it is only a temporary home, and we are still searching for the loving family who will give her a forever home.

šŸ“² If you’re interested in adopting Pica, we encourage you to apply!

🐶 Timón is Looking for His Forever Home 🐶✨ Male, approx 10 months old.

Some smiles say it all… and Timón’s is one of them: hope, sweetness, and the quiet wish of finally having a family to call his own.

Now 1 year old and medium-sized, Timón has a personality that will steal your heart. He’s cheerful, curious, playful, and incredibly affectionate. He may be a little shy at first, but once he trusts you, all he wants is to stay by your side and shower you with love. šŸ¾šŸ’›

Timón doesn’t need much to be happy—just a family to choose him forever. A cozy bed, peaceful walks, and a loving heart where he can finally feel at home.

Pumba, Male, 10 months old
He Is Still Waiting for His Forever Family šŸ’›šŸ¾

It has been 10 months since Pumba arrived with us in Mexico. While he has received plenty of love and care during his stay, nothing compares to having a home of his own and a family to love him forever. šŸ”āœØ

Pumba is a young, happy dog with so much love to give. He enjoys being around people, soaking up affection, and making the most of every moment spent with his human friends. His sweet, playful personality wins over everyone who takes the time to get to know him. šŸ¶šŸ’•

We know that somewhere out there, Pumba’s perfect family is waiting. All that’s left is for their paths to cross.

BONITA IS LOOKING FOR A SECOND CHANCE
Female, 4 yrs approx, 14 kgs

Bonita came to us in a very sad condition: she was extremely malnourished, with her ribs clearly visible and her little body covered in ticks, even inside her ears. She was wandering confused along the boardwalk, with no direction, and her condition clearly reflected the neglect she had suffered.

At first, something as simple as putting a leash or a collar on her was a huge challenge for her.

But over time, with love, patience, and care, Bonita has gone through an incredible transformation.

Today she is a completely different dog: she happily walks on a leash, her whole body radiates joy, she loves going for walks, and her eyes are full of hope. She has gained weight, her tests came back negative, and she is now fully vaccinated.

Bonita is a dog that easily steals your heart. Her beautiful black coat, her sweet gaze, and her amazing personality make her truly unique. She is intelligent, gentle, and very special: she has already learned to give her paw and enjoys learning new things. She has so many qualities that it’s hard to believe she was ever overlooked.

She gets along perfectly with other dogs. She is sociable, calm, and knows how to interact very well.

She is (medium size), and is ready to find a home where she will finally be loved as she deserves.

Bonita has already done her part… now she is just waiting for her family. šŸ¶šŸ’›

Pepito- Male,3-4 yrs old, 21 kgs
He’s a sweet dog. Loves humans once he knows them and a love bug. He’s indifferent with dogs. If he has company he settles really quickly. Loves being outdoors with his human. He needs, like all dogs, brain stimulation and walks. This helps also for any boredom and surfing counters. Walks well on leash, but scared at times of loud noises. With practice he will get better. He has an intense stare that looks thru you. Car rides we are still learning that they are fun. Cat tested and seems to be fine with them. He’s affectionate and not needy, loving and happiest when he’s included with people. Good hiking partner. Very intelligent.

PEPITO - Male - 3 years 4 months - 21kg
Meet the dog who will stare directly into your soul—and love you with his whole heart. This handsome guy is incredibly smart, deeply loyal, and just a little socially awkward. While some dogs are social butterflies, he’s more of an old soul who prefers meaningful connections over small talk. He’d much rather spend time with his favorite humans than join the canine party scene.

One of the first things you’ll notice is his intense, intelligent gaze. He makes remarkable eye contact and seems to study every word and expression, as if he’s always trying to understand exactly what you’re thinking. Living with him feels less like having a pet and more like having a thoughtful roommate who just happens to
have four legs.
He’s affectionate without being needy, loving without being over-the-top, and happiest when he’s included in whatever his people are doing. Whether it’s a walk, a car ride, or a quiet evening at home, he’s content simply being part of the family.
With a medium energy level, he’s the perfect balance between adventure buddy and couch companion. He’s always up for a hike, game, or training session, but he also knows how to settle down and relax unless he’s not receiving enough stimulation and he may surf the countertop to find something to cause some mischief, but he can be crated for his safety with very little concern and this trait can be worked on.
His intelligence makes him highly trainable, and he genuinely enjoys having a job to do and a person to work with. When it comes to other dogs, he’s pretty polite but doesn’t necessarily see the point of making a bunch of new friends. Humans are his favorite species, and he’d be thrilled to find a home where he can focus on building a strong bond with his people.
If you’re looking for a dog with character, brains, loyalty, and a gaze that will make you feel like the most important person in the world, this special guy might just be your perfect match.
He hasn’t been around young children less then 10 yrs, but is indifferent to them. Not cat tested.

Male - 12kg - 1 year - Tripaw

ā€œWherefore art thou Romeo?ā€ .is a phrase you won’t need to say much with this velcro boy.
This handsome three-legged youngster is proof that happiness comes with a wagging tail and a little extra character. Despite missing a leg, he doesn’t let anything slow him down. He loves to run, play, zoom around the yard, and make the
most of every adventure.
He’s a cheerful, affectionate boy who lives for cuddles and being close to his people.
Whether he’s curling up beside you on the couch or enthusiastically greeting you at
the door, he’s always ready to share his love.
Like many young dogs, he has a delightfully goofy side. He’s a little crazy in the best
possible way—full of energy, curiosity, and enthusiasm for life. He may occasionally
forget that personal space exists, but his charm makes it impossible to stay mad at
him. The good news? He’s smart, eager to please, and very trainable with
consistency and positive reinforcement.
He’s mostly house trained, rides beautifully in the car, and enjoys joining his people
on outings and adventures. He has done wonderfully with calm, respectful children
and seems to appreciate quieter kids who are happy to give him cuddles and
attention. He has not yet been tested with cats, so any introductions would need to
be done carefully, but he hasn’t got a bad bone in his body.
If you’re looking for a resilient, loving companion who will keep you laughing, shower
you with affection, and remind you every day to enjoy life to the fullest, this special
tripod pup could be the perfect match.
Three legs, endless love
