My story

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

***Currently located in Vancouver, BC***



Hi, I’m Kinnari — but you can call me Ki!



I’m a dreamy, soft-hearted girl with a quietly playful spirit and a big love for life’s little wonders. I was rescued from a construction site in the south of Troncones during the rainy season, and since then, I’ve been growing into the dog I was meant to be — curious, independent, and full of gentle energy.



I’m calm and introverted by nature, often lost in my own thoughts while watching birds and butterflies dance by. But don’t let that fool you — I have a playful side that comes alive when I’m with my buddy Lacey or during a fun game of chase. I love long walks, especially in nature or to the beach , and I’m happiest when I get to explore at my own pace.



I’m pretty independent and know how to enjoy my own company, but I do ask for love on my own terms — gentle hugs when I wake up, cuddles during quiet moments , and reassurance when storms roll in (they still make me quite nervous ). I’m a total foodie and have a special weakness for eggs and chicken — I’m graceful, so I won’t beg, but I won’t say no either!



I’m crate-trained and love my cozy safe space, where I happily eat my meals and nap in. I do have some puppy energy, so when I get excited or into play mode, I might do some gentle nipping and play biting — just my way of having fun and showing my joy! I am very obedient and will let go immediately when you tell me to! I just can’t always help myself, when I’m overjoyed



Sometimes when I’m left alone, boredom might get the best of me—so you’ll want to tuck away your socks and cables just in case! But honestly, I’m pretty independent and perfectly happy chilling in my crate or playpen with my favorite toy, patiently waiting for you to come back. I’m a great solo sitter and will do wonderfully staying home alone, as long as I’ve got my cozy spot and some toys to keep me company!



I’m very social with humans and warm up very fast to new people and dogs. I adapt well to new environments and am eager to be part of a loving family who can give me the stability and affection I need to thrive.



I’m a perfect mix of chill and spark — on rainy days, you’ll find me happily curled up as a devoted couch potato , but give me a chance to explore outdoors, potentially with a playful buddy by my side, and I’m all in for an adventure! Whether it’s a long walk or a romp on the beach, I’m ready to keep up and enjoy every moment. My energy level is just right for balancing fun and relaxation.



Could you be the one to give me my forever home?



Love,
Your Ki

More about this rescue

Surfers for Strays was started in January of 2017 by Isabel Velasco and Natalie Ritenour when they rescued 7 puppies and their mother, who had been abandoned at a local hot springs in Lagunillas, Guerrero, Mexico. The puppies were being eaten alive by parasites and their mother was severely malnourished.

Working together the women devised a plan to house and care for the animals and raise funds and more importantly, raise awareness to sterilize pets. They gained enough support in the local community to start helping “callajeros”, street animals in the villages of Troncones, Los Llanos, La Saladita and surrounding regions.

With the help of local veterinarians and citizens, they organized spay and neuter clinics and a program to educate children on how to treat and care for animals. Surfers and other travelers began volunteering and growing the network to foster and adopt animals in the US and Canada. With that momentum and the love and support of key volunteers, Surfers for Strays Inc. was founded in August of 2019 to cover more ground and help more animals escape the cycle of neglect, abuse and abandonment. From 2020-2021, Surfers for Strays adopted out more than 250 dogs and cats to fur-ever homes in North America and paid for more than 3,150 dogs and cats to be spayed and neutered in local communities in Mexico.

Your donations support our programs to sterilize, rehabilitate, find fosters and adopters for animals in need. Your donations also support education programs for the humane treatment of animals in underserved communities. Together we are saving animals and sharing the Mucho Aloha spirit.
