My story

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

Meet Leon 💙 Currently in foster in San Diego CA!
This incredibly sweet soul was found blind and alone in the bushes of a remote area in Mexico — likely dumped and left behind. 💔 A visit to the eye clinic revealed that his blindness was caused by trauma to both eyes.

But despite what he's endured, Leon is nothing short of remarkable. He’s gentle, affectionate, and full of joy. He loves to play, gnaw on a good bone, and snuggle up on the couch at night. Leon gets along beautifully with other dogs, shows no reactivity, and absolutely thrives on love and cuddles. He’s even learning verbal commands like a pro!

Leon may be blind, but he’s incredibly adaptable. He uses a doggy door with ease, lives peacefully with cats, and fits right in with a calm, loving pack.

He’s currently thriving in a foster home in San Diego and is ready to find his forever family — one that will cherish him for the loving, resilient pup he is. 🐾

More about this rescue

Two women, one American, and one Mexican met in Sayulita through their mutual concern for the many sick, abandoned, neglected, and abused dogs and cats in the area.

They began working together informally to rescue, rehabilitate, and find homes for these animals. Their efforts eventually led to the formation of Wet Noses Rescue, which has grown from a small backyard operation to an expanding nonprofit housed on a property with dedicated facilities in Punta de Mita. Providing the animals with health care, rehabilitation, socialization, and careful evaluation which is needed for a successful adoption to new homes in the United States and Canada.

Wet Noses Rescue also provides Spay/Neuter clinics in the local community to reduce overpopulation and vaccinations to reduce the prevalence of serious diseases such as Parvo and Distemper.
