My story

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

Hi friends! My name is Wick and here's more about me:



PHYSICAL INFO:




  • Breed: Rat terrier mix (best guess!)

  • Age: approx 2 years

  • Gender: Male

  • Weight: 20lbs (9 kg) 

  • Current Location: Guadalajara Mexico



RESCUE STORY - I'm a very special pup who has been waiting far too long for my chance at a loving home! I was found as a young pup wandering alone through the streets of Guadalajara, living a ruff life looking for scraps and any bit of attention I could get from the hoomans around me. I clearly love people and from the very moment my angel rescuer hoomans decided to help me I showed my gentle soul, allowing myself to be picked up and hugged right away. From the first instant, I had revealed my sweetness and gratitude.



TEMPERAMENT - My rescuers say talking about me is to talk about a truly loving, affectionate, and playful pup. I absolutely love going on walks, enjoying life with my doggy companions, and sharing joyful moments with people. My big brown eyes say it all! I have a soul full of tenderness and can't wait to be chosen by my furever family. Despite waiting a long time for my hooman family, I have not lost my adoration for people! I am sure to give nothing but unconditional love to the family who finally sees me for the treasure I am. 



ENERGY LEVEL - Medium



GETS ALONG WITH:




  • Kids – Unknown

  • Dogs – I get along well with other pups!

  • Cats – Unknown



PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.



TRAINING:




  • Leash skills – My rescuers say I am okay with my leash skills as you can see here, however I may need some additional patience and training :)

  • House trained – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience. 

  • Crate trained – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience. 

  • Car rides – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience. 



Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. 



HEALTH NOTES: 




  • I am neutered and vaccinated.

  • NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter.



ADOPTION FEE:




  • My adoption fee is $840.00 CAD including tax (5% GST, 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.

The info included in each WCP bio is provided to us from the international rescuer. WCP does not have in-person access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions, although we ask for video proof of a dog's attributes wherever possible. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person(s) adopting them and the environment in which they live.

Please keep in mind that there may be multiple applications for a single dog and that even if your phone interview and home check are successful, there is no guarantee that you will be matched with the dog you have applied for.
