NENA's Story

Hi my friends! My name is Nena and here's more about me:<br/><br/>PHYSICAL INFO:<br/><br/><br/> Breed: Border Collie/Sheltie mix<br/> Age: 7 years 1 month approx. <br/> Gender: Female<br/> Weight: 49lbs (22 kg) <br/> Height: 50cm (paws to top of my head)<br/> Length: 70cm (head to butt)<br/> Current Location: Guadalajara Mexico<br/><br/><br/>RESCUE STORY - I'm not gonna lie, it's been a rough life for me folks! I used to live with an unhoused person for a couple of years, but during that time I was neglected, malnourished and mistreated. When some angels stepped in and finally rescued me they noticed I was super skinny and I had developed resource guarding and a prey drive. This is likely because of the tough times I had when I was younger and food was not guaranteed for me. They took me in and I started working with some nice trainers and have made some progress. However, I'm not a big fan of other dogs - It's not that I bark or anything (I'm really not a noisy gal), I just don't like them much. I would thrive in a home as an only pup, where I can be super affectionate with my people!<br/><br/>TEMPERAMENT - I'm a very relaxed, chill pup with a pretty low energy level. I like to spend my time lazing in the sunshine! I also am not noisy or jumpy at all, I'm a quiet and afectionate pup who really bonds with my people. I loveeeee cuddles and belly rubs!<br/><br/>ENERGY LEVEL - Low<br/><br/>GETS ALONG WITH:<br/><br/><br/> Kids – Unknown.<br/> Dogs – No thank you. I tolerate adult male dogs but prefer human company!<br/> Cats – Unknown but unlikely due to my prey drive.<br/><br/><br/>PREY DRIVE - Yes I have shown a prey drive. My adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.<br/><br/>TRAINING:<br/><br/><br/> Leash skills – Pretty good. However, a well-fitted harness and some dedicated leash training will help set me up for success!<br/> House trained – My rescuer says I am good with this but I may need some additional training and patience. <br/> Crate trained – My rescuer says this is a work in progress and I may need some additional training and patience. <br/> Car rides – My rescuer says this is a work in progress and I may need some additional training and patience. <br/><br/><br/>Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. <br/><br/>HEALTH NOTES: <br/><br/><br/> I am spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. I will come to Canada with proof of all my vaccines and test records.<br/> I will be tested for Heartworm etc. before flying to Canada.<br/> 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.<br/><br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE:<br/><br/><br/> My adoption fee is $728.00 CAD including tax (5% GST, 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.<br/><br/><br/>-------------------------------------<br/><br/>DISCLAIMER: <br/><br/>Please visit wcpdogrescue.com to read about West Coast Paws Dog Rescue and it's adoption process.<br/><br/>The info included in each WCP bio is provided to us from the international rescuer. 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.

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.
