Hello friends!! My name is FIESTA and here is some info about me:
PHYSICAL INFO:
- Breed: Black Mouth Cur/Lab mix
- Age: approx. 8 months
- Gender: Female
- Weight: 29 lbs (I think I'll max out around 45-ish lbs)
- Current Location: Texas
RESCUE STORY - Me and my littermates were rescued when we were just 4 weeks old, along with our mama. Our "owner" was hoarding dogs in their home. Thankfully, local law enforcement intervened and found us a placement at County Roads Rescue facility in Texas. I have spent my whole life at this awesome rescue facility, safe and sound but longing for a home to call my own. Don't tell the others, but I am one of the volunteers' favourites here, hehe. My mama dog is a super easy going girl and my rescuers say I have proven to be just as calm-natured as she is!
TEMPERAMENT - Once comfortable, I am a loving and playful young gal! I can be shy upon first introductions but I warm up with a bit of time. As I mature and continue to have positive experiences, I'm sure my confidence will grow too! I have a sweet soul and an easy-going nature (after I've had sufficient exercise, of course!). I am looking for an active family who is ready for "all things puppy" - hoomans who are open to working with potential play nipping, high energy, housetraining, and developing leash skills. I promise to repay you with loads of cuddles, kisses, and tail wags!
ENERGY LEVEL - Medium/High - I'm a puppy!! I can be energetic at times and LOVE to play, but after the right amount of exercise, I switch over to a calm, cuddle bug. The perfect combo, if I do say so myself!
GETS ALONG WITH:
- Kids – I have met some children (video) and didn't seem bothered, although I'm definitely a little shy and timid at first.
- as with ALL dogs, I should always be supervised around children and I need to have my space respected. It's important to remember I am a puppy, so I may play nip or bounce/jump up on people (including children!)
- Dogs – Yup! There's lots of doggos at the shelter and we get along just fine.
- Cats – Yup! Check out my video! If anything, I'm a little scared of the cats (although I love their cat toys!)
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 pretty well on a slip leash but would love an adopter who is willing to continue working with me on my leash skills.
- Crate trained - yes!
- House trained – not yet, as I'm living in a busy shelter environment. I'm sure with frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement in my new home, I'll learn quickly!
Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives.
HEALTH NOTES:
- I am a healthy young girl who has been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.
- I have tested negative for heartworm.
- I will be tested for distemper and parvo before travelling (although I've been vaccinated for both!)
- 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 $750.00 CAD + applicable taxes, which includes my ground transport to Edmonds, Washington. My adopter needs to be willing to drive to Edmonds, Washington to pick me up! :)
