My story

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

1 and 1/2 year old Estrella is a Shepherd cross looking for a home. She weighs approximately 44 lbs. She is a gorgeous mixed breed dog - lean and sporty looking, with lovely colouring.

Estrella and her litter of 5 were found near the SPCA Puerto Vallarta sanctuary in Mexico. Their mum Keisha was tied up and left blind after surviving being poisoned. The puppies were in very poor condition suffering from malnourishment at such a young age. Estrella is now in foster in Kelowna, BC with 2 dogs.

She is good with dogs and cats, but can be timid to start. She enjoys walking with her siblings or other friends when exploring new areas. When she would walk with her blind mum she would guide her along and make sure she was safe. Estrella is doing well with the 2 dogs in her foster home, and cuddles up with them in gratitude for them kindly showing her her new world. Estrella is good with people. She'd like a home with a yard, in a non urban centre. She loves the beach, swimming and playing frisbee.

If you think you might be a good fit for Estrella please email pvcaadoptions@gmail.com and tell us a little bit about yourself, and we can send you an application, or you can go directly to our application: https://forms.office.com/r/b1Fkq3u4zw

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We screen all applications and in most cases require a home check prior to placement. An approved adoption application must be on file before meetings are set up, as our dogs are in foster homes. We charge a $550 USD adoption fee. We routinely follow up with a visit or at least a phone call after placement. We solicit follow up photos and publish adoptions in our weekly newsletter.

More about this rescue

PVCA Animal Rescue is the sister organization of the SPCA Puerto Vallarta in Mexico. We facilitate the transportation and adoption of rescue dogs into loving forever homes. PVCA is a network of volunteers, transporters, and foster homes. The mission of SPCA de PV is to help fund and promote sterilization, adoption and healthcare efforts for companion animals in the Puerto Vallarta area, with the goal of eliminating the euthanasia of healthy and adoptable animals. SPCA de PV is not supported by the government, corporations, foundations or businesses. The dogs & cats of Mexico are too often found living on the streets after being discarded and/or extremely abused. We devote ourselves to their physical and emotional rehabilitation and invite everyone to come and interact with the animals at our sanctuary. Compassion Knows No Boundaries!
