Barbara's Story

Meet Barbara! This sweet pup was surrendered to our team in La Paz, Mexico in late spring of 2026. We estimate this sweet gal was born in late 2019 and she currently weighs around 6 pounds. Barbara is patiently waiting in foster care in Portland, Oregon for her forever family to find her now after spending a few months at our shelter.<br/><br/>Our sweet Barbara came to us as an owner surrender in the spring of 2026. Her family couldn't afford to keep her any longer and made the choice to turn her over to our team in La Paz. After spending a few months at the shelter Barbara made her way to Portland in August, and ever since has been stealing hearts and pets! This playful pup loves to hangout with her foster pupsiblings during the day and taking long couch naps after she has used all her energy. During her cuddle time she loves to curl up in a bed near her humans, or even better on her humans lap while she gets all the pets during her nap time. Barbara is fully kennel and house trained as well. She gets along with children, cats, and other dogs as well, though when she is adjusting to her new home she can be a little hand shy the first few days. Hiding and crouching away from her humans, however, she has never been aggressive and is not possessive of her family members in any way. This sweet girl is still showing us her full bubbly personality- but funny, social, and playful are all words we would use to describe this adorable pup. Our team cannot wait to see Barbara thriving even more with her new forever family! She is patiently waiting for them to find her, and she is avaible for meet and greets in Portland, Oregon.<br/><br/>All of Saving Baja Paws dogs come with a fantastic flexible foster-to-adopt option. This is a unique opportunity that allows your family to make sure it a perfect match with your new pup.<br/><br/>Barba's adoption fee for Oregon, Washington, or California is $350USD. This helps us cover most of her vet and care costs incurred in Mexico, and the transport fee to bring our pups over 1,500 miles to the PNW. All our dogs come spay or neutered, with all theirs shots for the year, and have had multiple blood tests done prior to entering the USA from Mexico.<br/><br/>All our pups come fully up to date on shots, are tested for heartworm and other diseases, microchipped, fecal tested, current on flea medications, and also come spayed / neutered.<br/><br/>Please Apply savingbajapaws.org/application
