Story
Louie is a big, handsome Dogo Argentino looking for his forever home with the right experienced owner. At 6, he’s settled into exactly who he is: a loyal, low-drama companion who wants nothing more than a warm spot in the sun, a comfortable bed, and his people nearby. He’s not a velcro dog — he won’t climb in your lap — but he will follow you from room to room and absolutely live for a good butt scratch.Louie is a one-pet, adults-preferred household dog. He does not do well with other animals or unfamiliar people, and we want to be fully transparent about that. He is wonderful with his trusted family and has been a devoted, steady presence in our home.He needs an adopter who understands the Dogo breed, has experience with guardian dogs, and can provide clear structure and a calm, secure environment. A quiet home where he can decompress and be loved is all this guy wants.Ideal home: No other pets. Adults or older kids only. Experienced with large/guardian breeds. Secure yard.

Story
Mali is not a beginner’s dog — and the right person will know exactly what that means and get excited about it. She’s high-drive, athletic, and deeply bonded to her people. Life with Mali is active and rewarding if you know how to work with a dog like her.She is not good with other animals or strangers, and we’re being upfront about that because she deserves an owner who goes in with eyes open and the skills to match. In the right hands — someone with working breed or sport dog experience — she is an incredibly engaged, loyal, and fun dog.Mali needs a job, an outlet, and a handler who will channel what she’s got. If you’ve owned a Malinois, Dutch Shepherd, or similar working breed before, you already know the type. She’s that dog.Ideal home: No other pets. Experienced working breed owner. Active lifestyle — running, hiking, training. Secure yard. Adult-only household preferred.

Ginger

American Staffordshire Terrier

Story
Ginger is an 11-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier (possibly mixed with something, we were never told for sure). She is current on vaccines (she has a monthly allergy shot, Cytopoint), spayed, house-trained, and fun-loving! Ginger loves tug-of-war, chasing balls (though she isn't the best at giving them back to be thrown again), and running around the yard. She loves people and pets, but does not get along well with other animals. Ginger was rescued from Texas after Hurricane Harvey in 2017, after having been found wandering around in the aftermath, so it is believed she has PTSD from that and has been known to attack other animals (dogs, cats, etc.). That being said, she absolutely loves people and will always want attention and pets (even if she is quite drooly). Ginger is trained with "sit", "lay down", "out" (of the kitchen when food is being cooked), and "bed", and she absolutely loves human food. Ginger is a good dog, but definitely needs a firm hand sometimes.

Story
LASSIE: The Romantic HuntressLassie is a spicy mix, perfect for adventurous souls. She'll give you the eye and roll onto her back for cuddles one minute, and then unleash her daring side and strike fear into the hearts of unsuspecting stuffed animals the next. She's day and night, sweet and savory, a Jane Austen character and an Avenger all rolled into one. More evidence of Lassie’s charm, bravery, and dramatic double life can be found here: https://hope4lapawz.org/wp1/lassie-2023076d/To call her a Swiss Army knife is an understatement. We don't understand why she's been on the program for so long, given her ability to charm you while simultaneously wiping out any rodent or cockroach infestation you might have in your home. Lassie is both friendly and fierce, loving and a hunter, yin and yang. The perfect balance.Just don't ask the stuffed animals for their opinion.This dog is currently in foster care in La Paz, Mexico, but will be transported upon adoption or foster placement. As a U.S. nonprofit, Hope 4 La Pawz, handles all logistics and provides full behavioral and medical info in advance.

Hi, I am Zeke! I am a sweet, adult dog who is learning to build confidence after being rescued from a difficult situation. I love to play with other dogs and enjoy spending time outside in the yard. Indoors, I am still learning my manners so patience and guidance are important. I need a loving, understanding family who can help me grow into the best dog I can be. If you are looking for a loyal companion to work with and love, fill out an application and we can meet on a Zoom call!This dog is currently in foster care in La Paz, Mexico, but will be transported upon adoption or foster placement.

Story
Some dogs are perfectly happy being extras. They wander through the background of life, making brief appearances and then disappearing again.Bubbles is not one of those dogs.Bubbles is absolutely convinced she is the main character.She approaches life with enthusiasm, curiosity, and the firm belief that something exciting is about to happen. She loves to play, loves to learn, and loves having someone special to follow from room to room, just in case they need assistance with whatever important activity they are doing.For the last two and a half years, however, the story has not gone according to plan.You see, every main character eventually gets to their big moment. The chapter where they find their family. The scene where they finally walk through the front door of the place they belong. The happy ending everyone has been waiting for.Bubbles has been patiently waiting for that chapter to begin.The strange thing is that she is ready for it. She is smart, fun, affectionate, and full of personality. She lights up when she trusts someone and gives her whole heart once she decides you are her person.Yet somehow, her story is still sitting on the shelf waiting for the next page to be turned.Additional chapters, photographs, and behind-the-scenes footage of Bubbles' story can be found here:https://hope4lapawz.org/wp1/bubbles-2023056DWe think it’s time someone fixed that.Bubbles isn’t looking for a temporary role or a guest appearance. She is looking for her forever family. The people who will finally give her the starring role she was always meant to have.And honestly?We’ve been waiting for that chapter, too.This dog is currently in foster care in La Paz, Mexico, but will be transported upon adoption or foster placement.
