Leon's Story

Meet Leon 💙 Currently in foster in San Diego CA! This incredibly sweet soul was found blind and alone in the bushes of a remote area in Mexico -- likely dumped and left behind. 💔 A visit to the eye clinic revealed that his blindness was caused by trauma to both eyes. But despite what he's endured, Leon is nothing short of remarkable. He's gentle, affectionate, and full of joy. He loves to play, gnaw on a good bone, and snuggle up on the couch at night. Leon gets along beautifully with other dogs, shows no reactivity, and absolutely thrives on love and cuddles. He's even learning verbal commands like a pro! Leon may be blind, but he's incredibly adaptable. He uses a doggy door with ease, lives peacefully with cats, and fits right in with a calm, loving pack. He's currently thriving in a foster home in San Diego and is ready to find his forever family -- one that will cherish him for the loving, resilient pup he is. 🐾

Wet Noses Rescue's Adoption Policy

First, adopters must fill out our online application at wetnosesrescue.org. If approved, there is a phone interview and virtual home check. We are a shelter based in Punta de Mita, Mexico, and also operate in San Diego. We understand that it can be challenging to meet our animals in person due to the distance. However, we have a process in place to ensure a smooth adoption experience. Most of our animals are located at our shelter in Punta de Mita. We frequently arrange transportation for our animals up the West Coast of the USA (San Francisco, Seattle, etc.) and the Western Provinces of Canada (Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, etc.). To help you get a better sense of the animals, we can offer additional photos, videos, and even schedule video calls. Please see our Google Reviews (https://goo.gl/maps/aDbyG4vW9YWNTs4d7) for some of our adoptive families' experiences. We are a volunteer run organization, and a flight angel would accompany them. This area is a touristy area, and many people like to volunteer in various ways to support the community, and especially support the neglected animals finding good homes. To secure flights, it generally takes us between 1-4 weeks once an animal is ready to go home.
