LORETO's Story

Hey yo yo!! My name is Loreto and here's my details: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: Lab/Staffy(?) mix (just a guess!) Age: 2 years 5 months approx. Gender: Male Weight: 45lbs (20kg) Current Location: Baja Mexico RESCUE STORY - Like my sis Lupi, I was unfortunately thrown out onto the streets with my mumma when I was just a babe. This was tough times for us as we thought we had a furever family...and the streets are no place for puppies to be! Thankfully our mum kept us safe until some kind hoomans found us and took us to a shelter where I've been able to develop into the fun-loving and playful doggo that I now am. I would really looooove to be a part of my very own furever family someday so that I can share my boundless amounts of affection! TEMPERAMENT - Looking for a lovebug? Look no further! I adore hoomans and giving kisses is my favourite pastime! You can find me sharing fun times with the other doggos at the shelter, or just chilling in the shade looking for someone to share my cuddles with. I have a very sweet and playful spirit and I love games of fetch and getting my energy out with my sibling. I'm an adaptable pooch and would likely do well either in an apartment or in a house :) As long as there's hoomans to give me affection, cuddles and a good few games of fetch, I'm golden! ENERGY LEVEL - Moderate GETS ALONG WITH: Kids – Unknown but testing can be requested. Dogs – Yep!! I get along just fine with other dogs. Cats – Nooo thank you! PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I'm not too sure how I'll react around cats/squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. TRAINING: Leash skills – I am okay on a leash as you can see here and here! However, my adopter must be willing to provide me with some additional training and patience :) House trained – This is a work in progress and may need some additional training and patience. Crate trained – This is a work in progress and may need some additional training and patience. Car rides – This is a work in progress and may need some additional training and patience. Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. HEALTH NOTES: I am neutered and vaccinated. 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 $840.00 CAD including tax (5% GST, 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver. ------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: Please visit wcpdogrescue.com to read about West Coast Paws Dog Rescue and it's adoption process.

West Coast Paws Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

WCP wholeheartedly believes in open communication with our adopters. We are always here to provide support and to join you in celebrating your dogs’ successes! Submit an Application - Start by clicking the “Adopt” button on a WCP dog’s profile. You will be redirected to an application form, which we ask you to fill out in as much detail as possible. Phone Interview - After your application is pre-screened, you will be contacted to arrange a Phone Interview. The purpose of the Phone Interview is to chat about the answers you provided on your application and to ask any clarifying questions. House Check - Once you have passed your Phone Interview, we will ask you to send us some photos of your home. Fear not, we don’t expect your house to look like a showhome! We are simply looking to see where your WCP pup would live and whether or not there are any potential safety hazards (escape areas etc.). Approval - Presuming you pass your House Check, you will receive an Adoption Approval email from our WCP Adoption Team. Deposit - A $100 CAD deposit is required in order for your dog to be reserved for you. Once we have received your deposit, we will update your dogs’ profile to show “Pending Adoption” and will stop accepting any further applications for him/her. At this point, we will notify the Rescuer that a home has been found and request that they start looking for a flight volunteer to bring your pup to Vancouver. Now you patiently wait for your dog to be booked on a flight. The Rescuer will work to find a traveller who is willing to add your dog as ‘extra luggage’ onto their ticket. We refer to these kind humans as “Flight Volunteers”. Meanwhile, your pup will be checked by a veterinarian who will issue a Certificate of Health and ensure your pup's shots are up to date. The vet will then approve the dog for travel and will provide all medical documentation, including your pup’s vaccination record. Flight Confirmation & Final Payment - Once the Rescuer finds a flight for your dog, WCP will send you an email with your pup’s flight information. We will also send you specific instructions regarding airport pickup such as where you need to park, what time you need to be there, and what you need to bring with you. Don’t worry, we will tell you everything you need to know! We require you to sign an Adoption Contract before you pick up your dog. Pickup & Take Your Pup Home - Your pup’s “gotcha” day is finally here! You will pick your dog up at the airport and take him/her home with you. Follow-Up & Post Adoption Support - Your WCP adoption experience doesn’t end the moment you take your dog home. We believe in providing ample post-adoption support and want to be a part of your dog’s journey. Within 7 days of taking your dog home, you can expect a phone call from our Follow-Up Team. If you need any help or support, WCP is here for you and your pup! WCP wholeheartedly believes in open communication with our adopters. We are always here to provide support and to join you in celebrating your dogs’ successes! There is no expiration date on our post-adoption support.
