Learn More about the Adoption Process

Our adoption fee is $500 * Please note we have not yet changed the amount on the application form *  This includes transport, and all vetting, vaccinations DHPP+L+C and rabies, spay or neuter, worming, flea/tick prevention, dental cleaning if necessary, and any other procedures that may be required for individuals such as mange treatment, x-rays, orthopedics, etc.  We also do a blood test for ehrlichia, lyme disease, anaplasma, and heart worm.  You should submit an application for the dog you are interested in.  Most of our dogs have not been exposed to children or cats, and are not house trained, so you can expect to do some work in that regard.  We don't recommend our dogs for a home with toddlers.  Once application is received we will contact you if we feel you're a suitable candidate and request photos of your home and yard environment. We provide videos and more photos after you have been selected and we arrange for a travel date and pick up arrangements. 
We highly recommend a two-week trial period or fostering to adopt to ensure a good fit.

WANDA

Female • Cocker Spaniel *  5 years • 10 kg
ADOPTED AND HOPING FOR TRANSPORT

Super affectionate, playful, but initially leery, Wanda is looking for a quiet and gentle home with her guardians home half days.  She would love to go for walks and perhaps later be introduced to other dogs.  She hasn't yet been tested with cats or children and she will slowly be introduced to other dogs to test her reactions. 

KOOKI ADOPTED AND HOPING FOR TRANSPORT

Female • German Shepherd*  2 years • 20 kg

This dog was given up by her owner due to a change in living situation.  Kooki lived with a loving family and a small dog.  We are currently socializing her with other dogs at the Mex-Can shelter in Guanajuato and be able to assess her for a future home.  She loves people, but unknown around cats and children. 

JOLIE, RICO AND KODA
​LOOKING FOR TRANSPORT. HOMES/FOSTERS PENDING

Female, Male, Female • Lab x Dob X  *  4 months old 
Will be at least eight months of age when they finally travel to Canada. 

TONY

Male • Aussie X *  8 years • 19 kg
LOOKING FOR TRANSPORT.
WILL BE FOSTERED ON GABRIOLA ISLAND

Ol' Tony is still waiting for his forever home to appear. This senior fellow around 8 years of age is low maintenance. Kind of a grumpy fellow around other dogs (although he has recently displayed a few playful moves) so he will have a more successful placement as an only dog where he can hang out with his human, or lay in a corner somewhere and just chill. He will take a few weeks to adapt to his new home and his new person will need to understand that this guy had some issues around being touched when he first came into care here and may regress somewhat until he bonds and trusts. He now enjoys getting brushed and receiving affection and runs to greet you with excitement. No cats, no kids please. Maybe a retired couple just looking for a canine companion around the house?

AGNES

Female  * Lab x Greyhound  * 2 years * 27 k

Oh, Agnes!  Such a tall black beauty with a shiny coat and gentle eyes.  Agnes did not get any socialization as a puppy and therefore is very shy and skittish.  She will need a home committed to helping her gain confidence and lose her fears of the outside world, or just accept her the way she is.  There are no guarantees!  Agnes will definitely require a quiet home with a high fenced yard, and be on leash for a very long time, perhaps forever.  
​

CARMEN

Female  * Mixed Breed  * 2 years * 25 k

Carmen is a super needy, affectionate dog that requires an active home.  She would do best as an only dog as she has some protective/guarding issues around her human.  This seems to be such a common thread among the dogs! What is her mix? Who knows!  She walked herself into the veterinary clinic a few months ago and was them accepted at the Mex-Can shelter in Guanajuato.  If you are an experienced dog person and are looking for a constant loving companion this girl might be for you. ​

MAMBO

Male - Mixed Breed -
​2 years - 18 kilos
​IN MEXICO CITY

COURTESY POST -
MAMBO is a dog that was rescued in Mexico City. If you are interested in this guy please contact Mex-Can Pet Partners and we can put you in touch with his rescuer, and assist in transport when possible.

KIWI

Male - Pit Bull X -
​4 years - 22 kilos
​CURRENTLY IN B.C.

COURTESY POST -
KIWI is a sweet loving dog that would best enjoy being an only dog in the house. He is currently living with another dog, a female, but has been giving her a hard time by being very territorial and guarding.  His owners would feel more comfortable with him having his own home so that Molly, a senior dog, can not feel threatened in her old age.  If you are interested in this boy please contact Mex-Can Pet Partners and we can put you in touch with his current people. 

ANNA

Female  - Mixed Breed - 6 years - 21 kilos

Anna is such a lucky girl, to be rescued from such a horrible situation.  She is at the Mex-Can shelter in Guanajuato awaiting a home in Canada.  Anna is a playful, very affectionate dog, that would love a human to take her for runs or walks.  She is good with the other dogs at the shelter, but does not like small dogs or puppies.  She hasn't been tested with children or cats.  Anna is on a special diet for her kidneys and will need to probably be on it for the rest of her life, with follow ups with her veterinarian.  Do you have a spot in your heart for a constant companion that can hang around the yard or acreage with you, and would like to give this girl a dignified life?  

​BELOW: THIS IS HOW ANNA WAS LIVING WHEN RESCUED.
