Even though I am about 2 years old I am still very puppyish. All legs and a bit goofy too. I love to play with other dogs, but it is best if they are around the same size as I am. Sometimes I forget how big I am.
I don’t live with kids or cats so I am not sure how I would do with them. I love my toys, even though the stuffed ones kind of explode around me.
Car rides are OK, not my favorite but if they end up at the beach, I am good with that. I am not a swimmer, but I could run miles up and down the beach biting at the waves.
I will need some training because I tend to ignore commands unless I know there is a treat involved. I do have someone helping me learn how to walk on a leash. Not that I like it much, but I am learning.
I am too big to be a lapdog, but I do love to cuddle and get belly rubs…who doesn’t?
I love my comforts in the house, like my bed and the great food I get but I do like to be outside too. I will ask if I need to go outside to do my business.
If it sounds like I am the dog for you, then just fill in the application and we can meet on a Zoom call. Lots of love Cali. To get more information go to https://hope4lapawz.org/adopt and click on the dog's photo. There you will see any videos, more photos and details.
Hi I am Cali,

Additional adoption info
Our adoption process is on our website at: https://hope4lapawz.org/adoption-process/
Once approved, we establish transport for your dog and work out delivery which is usually to an airport near your city (unless you are here in La Paz).
Adoption fees are $400 USD and transport fees are typically a flat $300 to any city that Alaska Airlines flies direct from San Diego. Adoptions for dogs to be living in Mexico are $1500 + Transport Fees.
Dogs traveling outside of Mexico are certified and have all appropriate documentation, shots, tests, and exams. In addition to the rescuing and medical rehabilitation of these dogs, we have regular training classes for the dogs to encourage socialization as well as leash and crate training while they are in their foster homes awaiting adoption.
Our adoption team supplies information, and tools, recommended training books. They also perform periodic adoption follow ups and assistance for adoptive families. We want each of our dogs to be set up for success in their new home. Our goal is to provide adopters with a complete package of rescue, care, and adoption support to promote a successful, happy life for you and your new dog.
If you have any other questions, you can contact a member of our Adoption Team at adoptions@hope4lapawz.org and we’ll get right back to you.

We publish videos and we will do online video chats as well. If you find a dog you think you might like to adopt, we will work with you personally to determine if it is a good fit.

More about this rescue
We are an all-volunteer organization in La Paz, BCS, Mexico, and include local community of rescuers (called "rescatistas"). Dogs that are rescued from the streets are fostered in homes where they are treated as members of the family. They are often fostered with other dogs and sometimes cats and children.
Our organization encourages more in the community to rescue and foster by offering a support system of food, medical care, and professional training. As rescuers get involved, they educate their neighbors, family, and friends about the importance of proper animal care, spaying/ neutering, and thus help to break the cycle of abuse and neglect.
We are always in need of volunteers here in Mexico, in the US, and in Canada. Visit our volunteer page for more details about getting involved -- so you can help us make a difference! https://hope4lapawz.org/volunteer/
