My story

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

💔🐾 Meet Guero – The Gentle Husky Who Just Wants to Feel Safe Again 🐾💔

Six-year-old Guero’s world was turned upside down when his elderly owner could no longer care for him and his blind/deaf senior poodle brother. Both were surrendered to a tiny rural shelter in Santa Cruz County. The poodle was quickly rescued… but Guero was left behind. 💔

Day after day, this beautiful boy cowered in his kennel, quietly waiting. When someone finally came to meet him, he army crawled out on his belly — desperate for comfort but too scared to believe it was real.

Now, Guero is safe with Paws Without Borders, and beneath that timid heart is one of the kindest souls you’ll ever meet. Once he feels secure, his gentle spirit and sweet personality shine through — reminding everyone just how resilient love can be. 🥹✨



✨ Guero at a Glance:
• 🐶 Male | ~6 years old | Husky mix
• 💖 Gentle, friendly, and affectionate
• 🐕 Gets along great with adults, kids, and other dogs
• 🚶‍♂️ Walks beautifully on leash — no pulling, just happy sniffing
• 🏡 House-trained and knows simple commands (sit, stay, etc.)
• 🥰 Loves belly rubs and has a quietly goofy side once he relaxes
• 🩺 Neutered, vaccinated, and ready for his forever home



Guero isn’t just looking for a home — he’s looking for peace. For someone patient and kind who will show him that love doesn’t leave, and that safety isn’t temporary. He’s ready to exhale, to trust again, and to finally be a dog. 💔🐾

More about this shelter

Hello! Thanks for checking us out. We are a 501-c3 non profit rescue and rehab service in Tucson, AZ

We rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome dogs from the streets of Mexico in cooperation with other animal rescue organizations in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Our shelter in Hermosillo, Sonora, Vidas Con Causa, currently has over 150 dogs. There, we provide medical care and a loving place for them to heal before coming to the US, then we foster and work on finding the perfect fit for adoption. You can also visit the available dogs at the rescue in Mexico. Our rescue partners spend a lot of time getting to know the dogs and we know MOST of their
perks and quirks!

We help special needs dogs, the amputees, the pregnant Pitties, the MexiMutts, those from small independent shelters who don't get much notice, the cancer patients. We provide round-the-clock care until these dogs are ready for rehoming.
