Story
🌼 Meet Flaca — A Gentle Soul Ready for a Softer Life Between 35–40 lbs and just 1.5 years old, Flaca hasn’t had an easy start. She was found in poor shape, already having had puppies despite her young age, and carrying an old injury likely from a car accident. But even with all she’s been through, Flaca’s heart is wide open — she’s looking for affection, stability, and a human who sees the sweetness she carries. 💛 A Loving, Tender Personality Flaca adores the affection she gets during volunteer walks and visits. She leans in, melts, and soaks up every bit of kindness offered to her. She enjoys playtime in the shelter yard and has even been a gentle, helpful substitute mamma to some of the very young pups at the sanctuary. She also practises visiting cats — and she aces it. Calm, respectful, and curious. 🐾 Health & Special Considerations Flaca’s hind end injury doesn’t stop her from playing or walking nicely on leash — she doesn’t limp and enjoys her outings. However, she does need to avoid constipation, as the injury sits close to her anus. With simple monitoring and care, she does beautifully. 🌱 Her Ideal Home Flaca is growing more comfortable with the bumbling noises of loud vehicles on gravel roads, but her perfect match would be a quieter home with a yard, where she can sunbathe in peace and decompress from her tough beginnings. She’s not a city girl yet — she’d thrive with calm surroundings and patient humans. 🐕 Breed Guess Flaca is a true Mexican special, but our best guess is Basenji × Whippet — a lovely mix of grace, intelligence, and sensitivity. ✈️ Location & Travel Flaca is currently in shelter in Puerto Vallarta, with flight options opening for BC and Alberta. She’s ready for foster, foster to adopt, or adoption. 📩 Interested in Flaca? Email pvcaadoptions@gmail.com for more information or an application.
