The MexiMutt Project is an initiative of Born Again Pit Bull Rescue. Millions of dogs live on the streets in Mexico, and our rescue works at the source through spay/neuter programs, rescue, medical care, and adoption into loving homes.<br/>- Since 2019, we have matched over 500 dogs with loving homes & spayed/neutered over 3,500 dogs in Mexico.<br/>- All of our dogs are currently in foster care in Guadalajara, Mexico. They are listed in Oregon for adoption purposes because our rescue is based there.<br/>- Once an adoption is approved, the dog will fly to Portland, Oregon (PDX). Most dogs arrive within 2-4 weeks after approval, depending on flight availability. <br/><br/>INTERESTED IN ADOPTING? Please fill out an application at: www.bapbr.org/apply<br/>(We are unable to respond to adoption inquiries submitted through Petfinder)<br/><br/>**************************<br/>Meet JULIA <br/>- AGE: 2 years old (estimated)<br/>- WEIGHT: 25 lbs<br/>- GOOD WITH KIDS who know to respect a dog's space and belongings.<br/>- HOUSEBROKEN? Not 100% yet. As rescues that lived outdoors, they'll need some time to adjust. Most adapt within 1-2 weeks of consistent training.<br/>- The breed listed is our best guess (since they're rescues!)<br/><br/>Before Julia found safety, she lived in a rooster cage. When her family decided to move, they left her behind: her skin raw from mange, her ribs visible, her world reduced to a wire box in an empty house.<br/><br/>She came to her foster's home carrying all of it. Scared. Thin. The kind of dog you'd expect to need a long time to decompress. But what happened next is something her foster, Susana, still marvels at: Julia learned her name and how to sit in a single day. Not a week. One day.<br/><br/>Julia is one of those dogs who acts like none of it ever happened: the trust came back too fast, the warmth too easily, for the past to have left much of a mark. She is playful, affectionate, and fully trusting. And she loves people with a warmth you wouldn't expect to find from a dog who was neglected all her life.<br/><br/>And she's smart as a whip too: she picks up commands with startling ease. "You invest a little time with her," Susana says, "and she learns so much, so fast." She spends most of her free time chasing toys, wrestling with other dogs, and hunting down every ball she can find. But despite what you may expect from this level of energy, she doesn't destroy things. She is that rare gem that is just easy and a joy to have around.<br/><br/>Julia would thrive anywhere she's given time and genuine engagement. A family willing to play with her and be present will get back a dog of rare quality: focused, well-behaved, and completely devoted.<br/><br/>What would it mean to give a dog like Julia the home she was always supposed to have?<br/><br/><br/>*************************<br/>Ready to apply?
