Hi everybodyyyy! I'm Poppy (Peque or 'little' in Mexico!) and here's some more about me:
PHYSICAL INFO:
- Breed: Labrador/Terrier mix
- Age: 6.5 months approx.
- Gender: Female
- Weight: 18lbs (8 kg)
- Current Location: Guadalajara Mexico
RESCUE STORY - Like many other pups, I used to have a family! But one day, when I was two months old, they left me to fend for myself outside of an animal hospital...I can't imagine why since I'm SUCH a sweet, good, loving (and cute!) girl. It's possible that my colour worked against me as a black dog. But I mean, we're supposed to be companions to witches - how cool is that! Nevertheless, with nothing less than a miracle (or magic), I landed on my feet. The animal hospital called my super-human, absolute angel of a rescuer who took me into her care and has given me some much-needed TLC. I'm now ready to be the awesome, loving companion of your dreams!
TEMPERAMENT - Like magic, I can calm a room down with just my essence. I am superrrr docile, sweet and passive. I can be a little shy and nervous when I'm in unusual surroundings but very, very relaxed and quiet at home. I get along with everyone (all sorts of dogs, kids!) and love playing with bottle caps, plastic bottles and balls! I am a super playful pup who is also very obedient and would be a trainer's dream come true.
ENERGY LEVEL - Medium
GETS ALONG WITH:
- Kids – Yes! Peep my video.
- Dogs – I get along well with other pups and currently live with many other doggos at my foster's house!
- Cats – Unknown but can be tested upon request
PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.
TRAINING:
- Leash skills – I do okay with my leash skills as you can see in my video, however I may need some additional patience and training.
- House trained – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience.
- Crate trained – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience.
- Car rides – My rescuer says I am good with this but I may need some additional training and patience.
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 Guadalajara 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.
