  • Apolo

    Approx. D.O.B. December 2019. He was rescued from the street with mange and papilloma.

  • Angie

    Approx. DOB: December 2024. Angie’s journey began when she wandered up to the home of Chely’s neighbor, arriving straight from the street in need of kindness. Although he wanted to help her, his landlord wouldn’t allow dogs, so he reached out for rescue support. Angie had ticks and fleas when she was found, but with care and treatment, she’s now healthy and safe. Currently living in an outdoor shelter, Angie is showing everyone what a tender, loving soul she is. She’s a sweet but timid girl who blossoms with gentle attention. Angie loves being close to people — it’s where she feels safest and happiest. She’s a joyful pup at heart, but she can be nervous around noisy or overly energetic dogs, preferring calm companionship and a peaceful environment. Angie is ready for a family who will give her the patience, reassurance, and affection she deserves. With a little time and a lot of love, she’ll become the devoted, happy companion she’s meant to be.

  • Baxter

    Approx. D.O.B. October 2025. Baxter was rescued with his Mom Blanca and sibling Bob. There were 2 others rescued from the same house at the same time (Roxie and Manny) from a neighbor whose landlord dislikes like dogs. They had fleas and ticks.

  • Blanca

    Born around December 2023, Blanca is a young mama who has already shown incredible resilience and sweetness. She was rescued with her two little boys, Bob and Baxter, after being found covered in fleas and ticks. Even in those rough conditions, her joyful spirit never faded. From the moment she arrived, Blanca has been a happy, social, and active girl who loves being around people. She has a playful energy, a friendly nature, and a little bark that she uses just to say hello. Because she’s currently living in an outdoor shelter, she’ll need some gentle guidance as she learns the routines of indoor living, but her eager‑to‑please personality makes her a wonderful candidate for a loving home. Blanca is now safe, undergoing her rescue protocols, and can be reserved for adoption. She’s ready to leave her difficult start behind and step into a life where she’s cherished and included. If you’re looking for a sweet, lively companion who brightens every day, Blanca may be the perfect match.

  • Cecilio aka Chilo

    Born around December 2023, this tiny chihuahua has already lived through more adventure than any small dog should. On December 25/25, one of our founders spotted him running right in the middle of the highway to San Juan — confused, alone, and in real danger.

    When she stopped to help, he didn’t run or resist. Instead, this little guy melted right into her arms. Docile, gentle, and grateful, he seemed to know he was finally safe. Born around December 2023, this tiny chihuahua has already lived through more adventure than any small dog should. On December 25/25, one of our founders spotted him running right in the middle of the highway to San Juan — confused, alone, and in real danger. When she stopped to help, he didn’t run or resist. Instead, this little guy melted right into her arms. Docile, gentle, and grateful, he seemed to know he was finally safe. Because he was found near the Santa Cecilia pools, our founder named him Cecilio — but his friends call him Chilo.

    Now safe in our care, Chilo is:

    • 💛 Sweet, calm, and people‑loving • 🐶 Small in size with a big heart • 🏡 Currently living in an outdoor shelter, so he’ll need some patient guidance with house training • 🩺 Undergoing full rescue protocols • 📌 Available for reservation now

  • Maple - Adoption Pending - Carvel, AB

    Maple, born around December 2024, began her life on the streets of San Quintín.

That’s when someone reached out and asked if we could help her — and from the moment she arrived, it was clear this little girl had a heart full of sweetness. Maple is a gentle, affectionate pup who absolutely loves to cuddle. She leans in softly, seeking warmth and connection, and she has the kind of calm, trusting presence that makes you want to wrap her in love. She’s still very young, curious, and eager to bond with the people around her. Because she’s currently living in an outdoor shelter, Maple will need some patient guidance as she learns the routines of indoor life — things like house training, structure, and the comfort of a real home.

Sandra describes Odie as a small‑to‑medium‑sized boy with a bright, social personality. He loves being active, enjoys meeting people, and absolutely melts when he gets cuddles. He’s the kind of dog who leans in for affection and thrives on companionship.

He’s now safe, undergoing his rescue protocols, and can be reserved for adoption. Odie is ready for a family who will give him the stability, affection, and everyday comfort he’s been missing. If you’re looking for a sweet, social companion who loves both playtime and snuggles, Odie might be the perfect match.
