My story

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

Hiya! My name is BEA and here is some info about me:



PHYSICAL INFO:




  • Breed: Maltese + Yorkie mix

  • Age: 5 years (approx.)

  • Gender: Female

  • Weight: 16.5 lbs (7.5 kg) 

  • Height: 37 cm (paws to top of my head)

  • Length: 56 cm (head to butt)

  • Neck: 25 cm

  • Current Location: MEXICO CITY



RESCUE STORY - My rescue story is all too common! My former owners lost interest in me while going through a divorce, and as a result I was left abandoned along with my two puppies. We were left to fend for ourselves, and to make matters worse, my legs had been tied together! A true act of cruelty that led to an infection at my wound. Today, I’m all healed up and in tip top shape! 



TEMPERAMENT - I’m a sweat Bea ready to love on my forever family! I do tend to be a bit shy when meeting someone new, but once you’ve earned my trust I’m an affectionate girl. I’m ready for allll the pets (like in this video)!



ENERGY LEVEL - Low to Medium - I enjoy playing with doggos and people! While I have an overall calm demeanor, I do enjoy time spent playing fetch and going on walks. I’m not shy when I’m ready to play! And at the end of the day, I cuddle up with my buddies and sleep tight in my kennel. Who’s ready to give sweet Bea all the lovin’ she deserves?!



GETS ALONG WITH:




  • Kids – Unknown. I don’t have known experience with kiddos!

  • Dogs –  Yes! I get along well with dogs big and small, although I do spend the most time playing with dogs my size. 

  • Cats – Not sure! I haven’t had much exposure to cats just yet. 



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 – Pretty good, but I could use some one-on-one time! I will need an adopter who is happy to work with me on my leash manners. A well-fitted harness and some dedicated leash training will help set me up for success! Check out these videos of me walking with a group of dogs here and here

  • House trained – Work in progress. Frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement will help me learn housetraining in my new home :)



HEALTH NOTES:




  • I am spayed, 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 adoption fee is $728.00 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.

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.
