My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi I am Nut,

Despite my age I am a very confident puppy, I am not afraid of other dogs even when they are bigger than me. I am great when I am off leash and I like to play with other dogs, but I can be a bit reactive when I am on-leash. I am working on that.

My foster is working with me to get me ready for my forever family. Some of the things I am working on include commands of up, down, in, out, sit, down, walk together. I know that I must wait beside my bowl until I get the signal to eat. I am pretty good with recall and walking on a leash, but there is still some work to do on both of those.

I love to play with other dogs the most, but I do like to chew on plastic bottles, bones and other sticks. I live with cats now and I like to play with the kitten because she is not afraid of me, but I am still a bit rough. The older cats are afraid of me, so they stay away. I love to run, and my foster mom gives me a job of looking for food she has hidden for us to find. That is great fun.

Car rides are fun especially if we end up at the beach. I am not much for swimming, but I love to run along in the sand and splash.

I am affectionate but I am not a cuddle bug! A pet on the head is a great reward.

I spend most of my time outside, so I still need to work a bit on my potty training, not because I don’t know better but sometimes, I want the tell the cats that this is my house!

If you are looking for an active smart puppy then I think we would get along, so fill in an application and we can meet on a Zoom call.

Lots of love to give.

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.

Go meet their pets

Our dogs are all in foster homes - but potential adopters can see them online at https://hope4lapawz.org/adoptions.

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.

If you are near La Paz and would like to meet some of our animals, contact us adoptions@hope4lapawz.org.

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/

Thank you for your support!
