Meet Cindy Name: Cindy Age: 11 months Gender: Female Weight: 30.8 lbs (14 kg) Breed: Beagle Mix Color: Brown & Black Health & Training Spayed: Yes Vaccinated: Yes Heartworm Negative: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: No Good with Kids: Has not lived with children, but has been friendly and comfortable around children she meets on walks Leash Trained: Yes Potty Trained: Yes. Cindy keeps her area clean at her foster home and should adjust well to a consistent potty routine in a new home. Crate Trained: Yes Cindy currently lives in a foster home in Mexico with other rescue dogs. She sleeps indoors on a dog bed in her designated area and is accustomed to sharing her space with other dogs. Cindy's Personality Cindy is a sweet, playful, and social 11-month-old girl with the perfect mix of puppy energy and affection. She loves her daily walks, exploring new things, and—most of all—playing with other dogs! While Cindy enjoys being active, she also knows how to settle in at home. She loves spending time with her people and is perfectly happy relaxing nearby after a day of fun. She is friendly, curious, eager to learn, and ready to experience all the things that come with being a loved family dog. Although Cindy has not lived with children, she has met kids while out on walks and has always appeared comfortable and friendly around them. Her gentle and affectionate personality shines through wherever she goes. Cindy's Ideal Home Cindy would thrive with a family who is ready to embrace the fun of a young dog and make her part of their everyday life. She would love a home that enjoys walks, playtime, adventures, and plenty of quality time together. Because Cindy is social and loves playing with other dogs, she could be a wonderful companion for a friendly resident dog. She could also be happy as the only dog as long as she receives plenty of attention, exercise, and opportunities to socialize. As a young dog, Cindy will benefit from a family committed to continuing her training and helping her build confidence as she grows. In return, they will get a playful, affectionate, social companion who is eager to learn and even more eager to love. Cindy's Rescue Story Cindy was supposed to have a home from the very beginning, but sadly, her story didn't start that way. She was born in an impoverished neighborhood on the outskirts of Guadalajara, Mexico. Her mother was allowed to roam the streets and eventually became pregnant. Cindy and her siblings were born into the same uncertain life, growing up on the streets without the safety every puppy deserves. By the time a local rescuer learned about the litter, only Cindy and one of her sisters remained. She immediately brought both puppies into her care, giving them the safety, food, and love they desperately needed.Cindy's sister eventually found a local home, and soon Cindy was adopted too. Everyone hoped she had finally found her happily-ever-after. Unfortunately, only a couple of weeks later, Cindy's adopter called her rescuer and said she no longer wanted her. She told her that if Cindy wasn't picked up that same day, she would put her back on the streets. Her rescuer didn't hesitate and immediately brought Cindy back to safety. Despite everything she has experienced, Cindy remains the same happy, trusting, playful, and loving girl. She hasn't let her past change her sweet nature or her love for people. Now Cindy is ready for the family she deserved from the very beginning—a true forever home where she will never have to worry about being unwanted or abandoned again. Cindy has already been given a second chance twice. This time, we want it to be forever. Ready to Meet Cindy? Cindy is currently waiting in Mexico and needs a committed family before she can travel to the Pacific Northwest. NWW offers a 10-day trial option. Adoption fee: $650 Apply at northwestwagrescue.org to help Cindy finally make her way home ##2854232##

Dolly's Rescue Story Dolly was found wandering the streets of Colima, frightened, alone, and desperately searching for safety. One day, she began following a neighbor who is part of our rescue team, as if she knew she had finally found someone who could help her. It was clear that Dolly had been surviving on her own for quite some time. She was dirty, underweight, and so thin that her ribs were visible. Despite everything she had been through, she never lost her gentle, hopeful spirit. We shared her story on Facebook, hoping her family would come forward to claim her, but no one ever did. From that moment on, we made Dolly a promise: we would help her leave her life on the streets behind and find the loving forever home she truly deserves. Today, Dolly is a happy, healthy little girl whose joyful personality shines brighter every day. Now she's ready for the final chapter of her journey—a family who will love and cherish her for the rest of her life. Dolly is waiting in Mexico until a family is committed to taking her on a 10-day trial adoption. If you are interested, apply at www.northwestwagrescue.org Her adoption fee is $650 ##2853567##
