MELODY's Story

Hola amigos and amigas! My name is Melody and here's some more about me: PHYSICAL INFO: Breed: Labrador mix Age: 3 years 11 months approx. Gender: Female Weight: 44lbs (19 kg) Height: 78cm (paws to top of my head) Length: 70cm (head to butt) Current Location: Puebla Mexico RESCUE STORY - I am a real warrior! When I was just a young'un (of about 1 month old), an unknown hooman left me on my rescuer's doorstep in a plastic bag. I have no idea how long I had been in that bag for but I was in a dire state and was breathing verrrry slowly and barely conscious. My rescuer, an angel lady, rushed me to the vet where after a couple days of TLC and rehydration, I managed to make a full recovery! Phew! Now for the past three years I have been patiently waiting for a chance at my very own forever home with a loving family to complete my happy ending! TEMPERAMENT - Since being given a new leash on life I have been sure to live it to the fullest as the happiest girl ever! I am a true blue cuddelbug who loooooves hoomans and attention. I am a shadow doggo, following my foster wherever she goes and keeping her company. I am also very friendly towards everyone and I LOVE to play with toys and other pups! My foster has described me as a real gem of a doggo who thrives on attention and would do best with a family that can provide me with lots of love and affection, plus help me get my energy out. A family that does lots of activity and exercise and can take me out to play with them often would be my dream come true! ENERGY LEVEL - High GETS ALONG WITH: Kids – Yes! I do well with kids as you can see here. Dogs – I get along well with other pups and currently live with many other doggos as you can see here! Cats – Unknown but can be tested upon request PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I'm not too sure how I'll react around squirrels/rabbits etc. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise. TRAINING: Leash skills – I do well with my leash skills, however I may need some additional patience and training. A double leash (with a secure harness) is recommended when I go for walks as I can get nervous in new environments and may be a flight risk. House trained – My rescuer says I am okay with this but I may need some additional training and patience. Crate trained – My rescuer says I am not so familiar with this and I may need some additional training and patience. Car rides – My rescuer says I am not so familiar with this and I 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 spayed 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.

WCP does not have in-person access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions, although we ask for video proof of a dog's attributes wherever possible. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person(s) adopting them and the environment in which they live.

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.
