Story
Hello! My name is Ginger and I am a Gentle, Loving Little Companion looking for her forever home. Here is a little about me: Breed: Chihuahua Mix Age: 1 yr (BD Jan 1/24) Gender: Female Weight: 10 lbs Height: 11" Energy: Low-Moderate Current Location: Lower mainland Fears/Prey Drive: Sensitive to loud noises, quick movements, and changes in tone Training: Ongoing; responds best to gentle, consistent guidance Leash Skills: In progress Housetrained: On a routine; does best with supervision and consistency Health: I am healthy, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations Adoption fee: $850 plus taxes I get along with:  Dogs: Yes, prefers calm companions Cats: Yes, very submissive Kids: Yes, calm and respectful children Hi, I’m Ginger, and I just turned 1. I am a beautiful fawn-coloured Chihuahua mix with a tender heart and a deep love for my people. I was found wandering the streets of California alone and scared but I was rescued and brought to Canada by people who showed me love and safety. I am a sweet, affectionate, and cuddly girl who bonds deeply with my humans. My happiest moments are spent curled up on someone's lap, beside you on the couch, or tucked into a cozy bed. I enjoy short bursts of play and zoomies, but then I’m perfectly content to settle back in and relax. I’ve been working hard on my training and know sit, down, go pee, and bedtime. I’ll be honest—I need to work on my confidence but I need someone to help me to do that. I can get startled by sudden noises, quick movements, or changes in your tone of voice. When that happens I may choose to hide until I feel safe again but I can get better with calm reassurance and a gentle approach. When I feel safe I settle nicely and show just how loving and trusting I can be. Even though the family who adopted me loved having me they had to make a really difficult decision to find me a home that met my needs better. A home where I could build my confidence AND be loved. My new doggy sibling is just too much for me. It became clear after 3 months that I would do best in a calmer, more predictable home because I’m a sensitive soul, and I truly thrive when life feels gentle and steady. Now I’m now looking for a forever home that’s the right fit for me. I get along well with other animals who respect my space. I’m very submissive and do just fine with cats, and I enjoy calm dog friends. I especially like spending time outside in warm weather and visiting through the fence with the little dog next door—it’s one of my favorite pastimes. I’m crate trained and happily go into my crate at night, though I feel most comfortable when I’m not completely alone. So having the crate near you at night could help. I do best on a consistent potty routine and with patient guidance as I continue learning. Car rides can sometimes make me feel queasy, but medication has been very helpful and allows me to travel comfortably when needed. With a little planning, I can absolutely join you on outings and visits. What I’m really hoping for is a loving, understanding home where my gentle nature is appreciated—someone who enjoys a close companion, values calm moments, and is happy to move through life at my pace. I promise to return that kindness with endless affection and devotion Energy Level: Low–Mid I get along with: Dogs: Yes, prefers calm companions Cats: Yes, very submissive Kids: Yes, calm and respectful children Fears/Prey Drive: Sensitive to loud noises, quick movements, and changes in tone Training: Ongoing; responds best to gentle, consistent guidanceLeash Skills: In progressHousetrained: On a routine; does best with supervision and consistency Health: I am healthy, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations My adoption fee is $850 plus taxes. Disclaimer: It is important for all applicants to visit our website, http://www.lovedatlastdogrescue.ca/adopting/ and read about Loved at Last Dog Rescue. Information included in the profile is provided to us from the international rescuer or local fosters. LALDR does not have access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person adopting them and the environment in which they live. Please Note: LALDR highly encourages adopters to research some local dog trainers before their dog arrives. Although a 1-on-1 trainer is often not needed, it is good to have someone in mind in case any problematic behaviours arise. Most bad behaviours can be modified if caught early enough, so make sure to nip undesirable behaviours in the bud before they become serious problems. Basic training should be taken seriously but should not begin until your dog is well settled in - at least a couple of weeks. After you feel your new dog is relaxed and comfortable in their new home check out training courses in your local area. Even basic beginner courses like those taught at a local pet store can have a huge benefit in helping your dog learn to socialize and get used to being in public situations, all with the added benefit of strengthening their bond with you. The age and breed of a dog is usually an educated guess, so we are not able to guarantee the accuracy of age or breed of our dogs. Normally, we will not approve adoptions to homes with children under 12 years of age. However if the dog is shown to be good with children we will approve homes with children 8 years or older.

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Bappul 💛 💙 Bappul’s News Account: @4_ever_home__ 1.) Health Condition * Not spayed yet. 2.) Rescue Story * Bappul was rescued from the Gimje City Shelter when an Adogs volunteer was there to help prepare the facilities for the harsh winter. She was urgently rescued from the shelter, where cold winter winds were blowing and contagious diseases were spreading. 3.) Basic Information ❗ As she is still a young puppy, she may exhibit separation anxiety, mouthing/nipping, whining, disorderly behaviors, howling, or barking. Will require consistent patience and training. ❗ Since her parents are unknown, it is difficult to predict her adult size or shedding level. * With People: Is a little shy but likes people in general and approaches with her tail wagging. Isn’t yet used to human touch and avoids hands, but you can pet her if you approach carefully and slowly. * With Dogs: Approaches other dogs carefully to say hi. Mixes well and has fun playing the big dog she stays with. * With Cats: Hasn’t met them yet. * Separation Anxiety: Whines a bit when left alone, but it isn’t severe and she is fine alone. Also does well when left with another dog. Expresses curiosity when left with a stranger, staying relaxed. * Potty Training: Goes potty indoors and has a 100% success rate aside from an upset stomach or unusual situations. * Hygiene: Is good with baths and brushing. Is a little scared of the sound of the blow dryer. Isn’t familiar with tooth brushing yet. * Walks: Has no experience yet since she hasn’t had all her vaccines. * Car Sickness: Vomitted a little bit during her first car ride since she was very nervous. After that experience, she didn’t show signs of car sickness and was fine during a long-distance train ride. * Doesn’t bite people but she’s a teething puppy so she nibbles on objects. * Doesn’t whine but gives a natural alert bark a bit when hearing unfamiliar outside noises. * Has a great appetite and loves food. * Is still unfamiliar with human touch and avoids it. * Can ‘sit.’

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟 Meet Jerry💛 💙 Name: Jerry 💙 Gender: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 4 months old (Born in August 2025) 💙 Weight: 3.2 kg / 7.05 lb 💙 Adogs Center Updates: @_adogs_ 1⃣ Health Condition * Not spayed yet. * Microchipped. * Is being treated for a minor injury on her tail, including disinfection. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Jerry was living at the Gimje City Shelter. She was waiting for someone to hold out a hand to her, but no one showed up to be her family. The weather was becoming colder and it was determined that it would be hard for Jerry to live at the shelter under poor conditions, so Adogs urgently rescued her. 3⃣ Basic Information ❗️As a puppy, she may need training in areas such as separation anxiety, potty habits, biting, nipping, whining, disorderly behaviors, howling and barking. ❗️It is difficult to predict her shedding and growth size because her parents are unknown. * With People: Even when she is with the caregiver, she gets scared of strangers, tucks her tail and freezes up. Once getting familiar, she shows her playful and adorable side. With the caregiver, she stays by the person's side, plays with her toys, naps, and even shows her belly. Is a bit wary of people standing and moving around; she usually keeps her distorted retreats to her kennel. * With Dogs: Got along well with other dogs at our center. Hasn’t met any dog friends since moving to the foster home. * With Cats: Hasn’t met them yet. * Separation Anxiety: Unclear, as she is rarely left alone in the foster home. * Potty Training: Has an accuracy rate of 99% pottying indoors on potty pads but she tries to move away before she's completely done pooping. * Hygiene: Gets a bath once a month. * Walks: Her vaccinations are not complete, so she hasn’t been on any walks. * Car Sickness: Didn’t show any signs of car sickness. * Doesn’t bite, but may nibble or nip since she’s still a teething puppy. Has started chewing on her paws pads recently, but not to an excessive degree. * Whines quietly when left alone in an unfamiliar environment. * Feels comfortable in her kennel and goes inside whenever she's scared or wants to rest. * Is very timid and easily scared of unfamiliar places, situations and people. * Already knows how to "sit" and "lie down.

Story
Hiya! My name is MOY. Me and my pal POPEYE are a BONDED PAIR and MUST go to a home together! Here is some info about me: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: Chihuahua mix Age: Approx. 1 year old Gender: Male Weight: 8.4 lbs (3.7 kg)  Height: 33 cm (paws to shoulders), 43 cm (paws to top of my head) Length: 48 cm (head to butt) Neck: 23 cm Chest: 38 cm Current Location:  Mexico City RESCUE STORY - Me and Popeye were rescued together two months ago. We used to live on the street with a few homeless alcoholics. It’s believed we taken from somewhere else, as the homeless people didn't have us one day and then showed up with us the next. Unfortunately, we were mostly tied up and had little chances to move. Me and Popeye were kept hungry and dirty. At rescue, we were both dirty and underweight but fortunately, had no serious health issues. Our rescuers have searched for our "original owners" (if we had any) but nobody has come to claim us. SO... now we're hoping and praying that a lovely family in the Pacific North West will want to give us both a loving home together! After all we've been through, we have kinda "trauma bonded" together and are inseparable now. I get pretty stressed out when we are separated (video). TEMPERAMENT - I am friendly and very affectionate with people I know and trust (video) and am more reserved with people I have never met (video, video 2, video 3). I am pretty chill (for a chihuahua) and don't appear to bark much or show any aggressive behaviours. I am curious when outdoors and hope to have more opportunities to explore nature when we go to our forever home. I am dog friendly and absolutely need my buddy Popeye as my companion; we walk (video), play, eat, cuddle (video, video 2), and sleep next to each other. We have shown that we are essentially each other's "emotional support animal", so our rescuers want us to be adopted together.   We were only recently rescued (Sept. 2025) from pretty unsafe and unstable conditions, where our movements were quite restricted. We are getting used to the new environment of the shelter. When together, we are way more confident. I think the ideal adopter for me and Popeye should be aware that we will need some time to get used to a new home, but also expect us to grow into very affectionate, playful furry companions with time! :) ENERGY LEVEL - Low - Both Popeye and I are pretty chill, low energy dudes! Once comfortable in our new home, I'm sure we'll come out of our shells a bit, but I don't think we'll ever be crazy energetic boys. GETS ALONG WITH: Kids – Unknown. Dogs –  Yup! At the shelter, Popeye and I live with dogs of all sizes. We get along with everybody. We eat together with other dogs and show no resource guarding. We can be a bit uneasy when meeting doggos when on leash, but you can see here we warm up pretty quickly. Proper introductions on leash (parallel walks etc.) and advocating for our space will be essential to us getting comfortable! Cats – Unknown. PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around cats/squirrels/rabbits etc., so my adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. TRAINING: Leash skills – Work in progress! I don't get to go out on walks very often, so I will need some leash work (video). I'm curious when outdoors and don't appear to be bothered by fast driving cars or noise. I am hoping to find an adopter to help me become more confident and find the joy of going out on walks! Here are some videos of me and Popeye walking together on leash (video, video2). A calm, confident owner will be helpful in us learning to walk confidently! House trained – Work in progress. Frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement will help me learn housetraining in my new home :) Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives.  HEALTH NOTES: I am neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. I will come to Canada with proof of all my vaccines and test records. I will be tested for Heartworm etc. before flying North. 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 bonded pair adoption fee (with Moy) is $1,568.00 CAD including tax ($1400 + 5% GST and 7% PST), which includes both of our adoption fees, vet costs, and airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver. ------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: Please visit wcpdogrescue.com to read about West Coast Paws Dog Rescue and its adoption process. 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.  WCP is unable to guarantee the accuracy of a dogs age and/or breed.
