My story

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

Hola! My name is Maya and this is my story:



PHYSICAL INFO:




  • Breed: Labrador mix (just a guess really!)

  • Age: 8.5 months approx.

  • Gender: Female

  • Weight: 29.10lbs (13.2 kg) 

  • Current Location: San Sebastian el Grande Jalisco Mexico



RESCUE STORY - I was found near a food truck asking for some food, looking very hungry and defeated. My wonderful rescuers found me looking sad and hungry because no one was offering me any food! I count my lucky stars because my rescuers did not think twice about taking me in with open arms, letting me know I would never be hungry again and that I would be very loved! 



TEMPERAMENT - I currently live at a dog hotel where I'm told I won everyone's heart from the first moment I arrived by being my sweet, gentle, loving and tender self!  Athough I was very sad when I arrived, I have grown to be a happy and playful girl, so very grateful to have been rescued! My rescuers say I am a very sweet doggy that would be a great addition to any family and I so hope to be! I have a calm and quiet temperament but I do love to play! I love to play with strollers and plastic bottles especially. I am overall quiet but I sometimes bark at noises outside of my surroundings. 



ENERGY LEVEL - Medium



GETS ALONG WITH:




  • Kids – Yes (See video here)

  • Dogs – Yep!! I get along just fine with other dogs and am around them all day (See video here)

  • Cats – Unknown



PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around cats/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 yes, I am friendly and love to sniff! (see here) but may need additional training and patience

  • House trained – My rescuer says I am doing well to go in garage and patio but I may need some additional training and patience. 

  • Crate trained – My rescuer says I have been but I may need some additional training and patience. 

  • Car rides – Yes, I have been very quiet in car rides but I may need additional training for car rides.



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



HEALTH NOTES:




  • I am spayed and vaccinated.

  • NOTE: dogs from this area are not microchipped.

  • 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. 



WCP is unable to guarantee the accuracy of a dogs age and/or breed. These are strictly "best guesses" based on veterinary exams and their educated estimates.

Additional adoption info

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. Your chances of a successful match greatly increase if you list more than one dog on your application.
