Pamela's Story
The Meximutt Project is on a mission to help Mexico’s street dogs! Established in 2019 under the Portland-based organization Born Again Pit Bull Rescue, we now support 1,000+ dogs each year through free spay/neuter programs, adoptions, food, and medical care. <br/><br/>In Mexico over 70% of the 18 million dogs are estimated to live on the street. By adopting a Meximutt, you will not only be welcoming a loving companion but also supporting our efforts to control the street dog population and help thousands of dogs in need. <br/><br/>****INTERESTED IN ADOPTING? Please read all of the following information carefully and fill out the application at www.bapbr.org. We cannot respond to the inquiries made through Petfinder.****<br/><br/>============================================<br/><br/>PAMELA is currently in Guadalajara, Mexico in foster care. We are listing this dog for adoption now so that we can find him/her the perfect family BEFORE arriving to Oregon. Once we have an adopter lined up for this dog, we will book a flight to PDX. Please note: It can take 2-4 weeks to arrange for the dog to fly to Oregon due to the CDC and USDA customs import paperwork.<br/><br/><br/><br/>NAME: Pamela<br/><br/>AGE: 3 years old (estimated by our veterinarian based on their teeth).<br/><br/>WEIGHT: 33 lbs<br/><br/>BREED: Australian Shepherd Mix (This is our best guess, we don’t know for sure, since he/she was a street dog.)<br/><br/>DOGS: No<br/><br/>CATS: Yes<br/><br/>KIDS: Yes, but please remember that kids need to know to be respectful of the dog’s space, bodies, and toys/food.<br/><br/>HOUSEBROKEN: No, not 100% yet -- Please keep in mind that our dogs are rescued off the streets, they are NOT always 100% housebroken and will need time and patience to adjust. Even in a foster home in Mexico, the dogs are often living in an environment with no carpet or grass or living outside. In the house, it is usually tile flooring and outside it is dirt/concrete. Most of our dogs transition well and only need about 1-2 weeks to get on a potty schedule/routine.<br/><br/>LEASH TRAINED: Not yet, working on it -- most dogs in Mexico have never walked on a leash before, she will need to be desensitized to leash walking and you will need to work on it slowly with them.<br/><br/><br/>ABOUT: Pamela was found alone and injured after being hit by a car — flea-ridden, hungry, and about to have puppies. Despite everything, she fought to survive and showed incredible strength. Now that her days of struggle are behind her, Pamela is ready for a peaceful life filled with love and care.<br/><br/>This sweet girl is shy at first, but once she feels safe, her affectionate side shines through. She’s incredibly calm and loves being near people, soaking up attention and companionship. Pamela doesn’t bark much, she ignores cats, and based on her gentle demeanor, she would likely do well with children.<br/><br/>Pamela prefers to be the queen of her castle — she’s happiest as the only dog in the home, where she can relax without worry and be the center of your world. She’s okay in a crate for short periods but really just wants to be close to her person. <br/><br/>Her perfect home is one where she isn’t left alone for long, where she’s treated with kindness, and where she can finally feel like she truly belongs.<br/><br/>============================================<br/><br/>IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY: <br/><br/>Our adoption program is exclusive and personal.
