Hola! My name is HAPPY and here is some info about me:
PHYSICAL INFO:
- Breed: Lab Mix
- Age: 8 years
- Gender: Female
- Weight: 48.5lbs (22kgs)
- Height: 76 cm (paws to top of my head)
- Length: 89 cm (head to butt)
- Current Location: MEXICO CITY
RESCUE STORY - Boy oh boy, is my story heartbreaking! My previous owners dragged me with their car (amongst other terrible acts), and barely even fed me. I also had scabies from living with them! Thankfully, a nice person finally say 'enough is enough'. They took me away from those terrible hoomans, took me to the vet to get me all fixed up, and I have been at the shelter ever since!
During my first vet visit, they told me I had something called TVT. I got this neat thing called chemotherapy and I am as good as a senior gal like me can be! Word on the street is that a doggie who used to live in this shelter, Josie, also had TVT. She made a full recovery and is living in the Pacific Northwest where I hope I can be soon, too!
I really love to go on walks but loud noises (like motorcycles) can scare me, so please be kind and patient with me. I promise I will reward you with lotsa love! I also loveeee to be a passenger princess on any and all car rides. Don't try to take my favourite toy away from me though - that thing goes EVERYWHERE!
TEMPERAMENT - I am calm and affectionate. I prefer the comapny of women and would do so well in a female-only household, but I do get along with men if they show me lottssss of love, patience, and treats hehe.
ENERGY LEVEL - Low/medium
GETS ALONG WITH:
- Kids – Unknown.
- Dogs – Yes! I spend a lot of time with La Charra and Mei Mei at the shelter.
- Cats – Unknown.
PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc., so my adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.
TRAINING:
- Leash skills – Good. You can see a video of me walking on a leash. I am a good little walker and I love to get out on my leash! A well-fitted harness and some dedicated leash training will help continue my success!
- 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 spayed/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.
